Compare CU Alert vs. Hyper-Reach

CU Alert is specifically created to ensure the safety of both your employees and your members. We can easily envision situations requiring immediate communication during emergencies, where rapid dissemination of information is crucial. These scenarios can involve physical threats and may happen while individuals are dispersed across various locations, such as their offices, meeting rooms, or while interacting with members. Some staff members might be commuting to work, returning home, stationed at a remote branch, or simply enjoying their lunch break. No matter their location or activity, there are times when urgent notifications must be sent to everyone. CU Alert is equipped to deliver alerts across a wide range of emergency situations. It ensures that everyone you need to reach can be contacted through email, phone calls, text messages, or pop-up notifications on their computers. Additionally, you can empower your staff to update their own contact information, ensuring that the data is always current and accurate. This feature enhances the overall efficacy of communication during critical moments.
