We’ve used Everbridge to help us navigate critical events. Whenever we’ve had weather events that have affected our offices or some of our project and across the globe. Specifically last year with the hurricanes that were hitting in the southeast of the United States, we used Everbridge to give us a really good view of what offices are in the impact, to communicate out to our employees who are in the impact zones, and to determine which project sites we might have that would be impacted.

Using Everbridge has been really helpful for us with all of our travelers. We have a highly mobile workforce across the country and across the globe. So that really helps us feed in our traveler data, make sure that our people are safe. We’re able to notify them when they’re coming into a location or leaving a location.

It also helps us whenever we have, an actual event that’s happening message out as quickly as possible so that we can keep our people safe. I really enjoy the conference. Mostly the networking has been fantastic. Hearing how other companies are using the products. We actually use both Everbridge and BCIC, and so we’re really looking forward to the further integration of those two tools.
