I have been very pleased with the service Alertable provides and appreciate the uptake it is seeing throughout BC.

I value the amount of felxibility and ease of use that Alertable by PEASI offers.

There is room to develop an option whereby a recipient of a notification can confirm that they have received the notification and engage in a two-way automated dialogue. Example: -> Click here to confirm receipt of this evacuation order. -> If you need assistance to evacuate please click here (immobile due to disasbility, no transport, no egress routes, etc.) - > Select a button to inform the EOC or EM planners of where you will go: -> Reception Centre A -> Reception Centre B -> I will stay with family and friends

I like that it instantly gets out information to all necessary parties quickly and efficiently. It is a very useful tool for municipalities in times of crisis.

I find that there are times where I am unsure of what information to put in which spots, as some items are to be clicked and other not. With our SaskAlert training, it's very specific as to what we need to write and where things need to go, but I struggle to get it accurate enough. A suggestion I have is to provide written templates for all the different scenarios that will populate when selected. This will help to eliminate the possibility of errors.

In the event of power outages, SaskAlert messages are still able to be pushed out by the Regina office.

The pre-made messages for the various types of alerts.

The program is continually changing. Every training session offered, something new about the program is being presented.

The staff at Alertable are knowledgeable and extremely helpful. Set up and implementation went quickly and smoothly.

Alertable provided the Township of Ramara with the ability to send out mass notifications to residents and visitors through multiple channels. Similar products were double or triple the cost of this system and did not include all the features this system has.

This system is missing an app that allows you to enter notifications in a easy manner.

Very good product, easy to use, friendly & helpful staff.

SaskAlert is provided free of charge in Saskatchewan. Once training was completed, the only requirement was that 4 test alerts be made, updated and cancelled each year. When we had a water main break while neither of the authorized users had access to the program, a simple call to their office had an alert sent out right away.

The mapping feature is slightly awkward to use

There is a huge benefit with having a platform that has built-in templates to utilize when you are in a hurry - like during an emergency/disaster. Spell checking ensures that a message is accurate and makes sense. Click and drag options for sections is helpful.

There is a disconnect when building directions from the click and drag in that you can't just type what you want, you must choose at least one in the bank.

Once the training is received, this software program is easy to navigate through. I have never had an issue during my practice training alerts, or actual alerts. I like how quickly the information can get out to the resident in the community who have the app on their phones. It is easy to quickly do an update and cancel an alert.

Some of the areas to fill in are specific on the information required. Therefore, it can be confusing as to what exactly is needed in these areas.

We use the system to alert our residents of events that are happening in our jurisdiction as far as emergency management goes. Like drinking water advisories, water disruption. Fortunately we have not needed to use it for flooding and fire events in our municipality but it would certainly be of value in those circumstances.

The ease of use, the design is organized.

I cannot comment on any cons for this platform.

Being able to alert the public with anything of extreme importance. Better than having to do a mail drop.

No complaints. I don't use the program enough to have any issues.

Great way to spread information quickly.

Easy to use. Templates are set-up and easy to modify to our needs. Customer service and technical support is above 5 star. Glad we chose Alertable.

The maps take some time to learn, but Technical support was available to assist.

Alertable is just what we needed for our community. It reaches everyone that we need to, works better than social media.

This software is easy to learn and use. Makes getting information out to the public quick and easy.

I haven't quite figured out the map feature, but then again, I don't really need to use it.

Participated in a vigorous training and credential maintenance program, have not yet had to send a live alert.

It is a trusted source of extremely useful local and regional emergency alerts to stakeholders.

The training and maintenance of credentials is fairly onerous

Excellent.

Easy to use and understand. System allows for quick practice to keep skills relevant.

Addressing/map needs to separate Airdrie as a municipality without needing to open the folder for Rocky View County.

We're very pleased with Alertable. It makes sending out mass public alerts easy. The team at Alertable is always available to support or answer questions.

Alertable was very easy to set up and use. Creating alerts is straightforward and fast. Alerts are geotargeted so they reach only the people that are impacted.

We have no concerns. The team does a great job of onboarding new people into the system and backing their product with great support.

The Alertable software is a great tool to communicate public service alerts to the public. The training site made learning the software easy, breaking down the steps for each part of the alert. I like the demo site and practicing posting alerts and using all the templates.

I am still a new user of the software and don't have any complaints so far.

Alertable is easy to use both as the sender of a message and the recipient. The templates make the process of sending a message simple and less stressful. Training is easy and fast.

It would be nice if there was a simpler way of embedding the sign-up form right in my website rather than linking to an external page.

Just starting

Ease of access ability. The support from the company and the overall use of this software

Nothing. Have just started using the product and still learning about all its features.
