Secure, Fast & Reliable Communications.
Every Time.
In moments of crisis, communications can often be chaotic. Every delay
in the dissemination of information may have detrimental results such
as loss of vital assets or lives. For situations where safety cannot be
compromised, it is vital that the organisations are equipped with robust
and highly available communications infrastructure and capabilities.
Provide Timely, Accurate and Clear Information with
Message
Templates
Pre-prepared message templates help save time in a critical situation.
Creating a message from scratch after an emergency has occurred often
lead to mistakes in the clarity of instructions, missing key facts and
the incorrect tone of the message. Firecast makes it easy to pre-define
and create message templates, and to refine the message templates during
the actual event.
Multiple Communications Paths and Redundancy
with Multi-Channel Distribution
Effective critical communications require the coordinated use of multiple
channels of communication. Firecast allows organisations to include all
relevant communication channels the contacts are most likely to use, and
provides multiple means of delivering critical information so that if one
should fail, others may get through. Firecast comes with optional features
to allow SMS Text Messaging to be coupled with App Push Messaging, Email and
Voice Calls; and also with social networking messaging platforms that include
Facebook Messenger, Tok-Tok, Line, Telegram and WeChat. As a leading
communications provider, Hello Technology is an early access program partner
with Google and Samsung, and has developed beta message delivery connectors
for the upcoming channels of RCS and WhatsApp for Business.
Disseminate Quickly to the Right Communications
Contacts
Having your key contacts and stakeholders for every situation prepared
beforehand is key to timely communications. Firecast provides contact
management functions to help you identify and prepare the right distribution
before critical events happen, and helps you execute your communications plan
to be as timely as possible. It allows you to build unlimited groups around
your selected attributes, and communicate to target groups easily and reliably;
such as people in a rapid reaction team, specific location or job role.
Automate your Voice Calls and Capture
Immediate Responses
Firecast is being used by organisations to send text, push, email and voice
messages to thousands of contacts simultaneously. For voice calls, it allows
organisations to automate voice calls with pre-defined messages and call flows,
and capture immediate responses with each automated voice call.
Secure Message Transmissions
During a crisis, organisations do not want to worry about message security.
Firecast ensures the message comes from an authenticated source to allow
recipients to be sure of the originator of each message that is acted on.
As part of our focus on security, Hello Technology has also attained the
stringent OSPAR certification to provide a secure and safe messaging
infrastructure.
Auto Responders to Perform Automated Actions
Firecast engages people across channels using interactive messages, alerts and
notifications. Replies from the multi-channels are captured, and auto-response
rules can be set to perform automated actions and to send responses based on
the content of the reply. If people cannot be contacted or if the issue cannot
be resolved, Auto Responders can be used to escalate the crisis notification to
higher level or to a different team.
