Arizona State University and Others Make Switch to e2Campus for Improved Multimodal Emergency Notifications
LEESBURG, Va., Aug. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- Omnilert(R), LLC, maker of
e2Campus(R), the leading emergency notification network for higher education,
announced that Arizona State University, King's College, University of Toledo,
and other institutions have made the switch to e2Campus for improved
multimodal emergency communications. e2Campus also announced a new program
called the ENS Conversion Service that allows schools to bulk upload data from
their previous emergency notification system into e2Campus at no extra charge.
Paul Moran, Executive Director of IITS at King's College said, "We
upgraded to e2Campus because it gives us a centralized interface to broadcast
emergency alerts to our campus PA system, our web page, and as SMS text
messages, voice calls, RSS feeds, and emails. It helps us cover all our bases
because e2Campus automatically broadcasts to everyone's email address and the
PA system whether people have opted-in or not. Their solid reputation and long
history of reliability makes me feel confident we made the right choice with
e2Campus."
Arizona State University also recently switched to e2Campus from another
provider. Adrian Sannier, Vice President and University Technology Officer,
stated, "e2Campus allows ASU to provide both emergency notifications to the
ASU Community as well as other messages for a variety of campus services. This
kind of flexibility becomes increasingly important as the population of
college communities like ASU become progressively mobile."
Ara Bagdasarian, President of Omnilert, LLC, said, "We have received
numerous calls from colleges and universities that want to upgrade to
e2Campus. Because we require recipients to opt-in to receive alerts, these
schools were concerned about going through the collection process again. With
our new ENS Conversion Service, clients can now import data from their
existing ENS into e2Campus free of charge."
The ENS Conversion Service allows schools to upload vetted data from their
existing emergency notification system into e2Campus at no extra charge. Under
the new program, e2Campus will waive the requirement for subscriber opt-in and
waive the fee for an e2Campus technical engineer to manage the database
uploads. For more information, visit: http://www.e2Campus.com/convert.
