Case Study: Axis Security achieves secure, reliable crisis communication to protect staff and clients with BlackBerry AtHoc

No Substitute for Secure Axis Security Protects Staff and Clients with Crisis Communication

Axis Security is a leading UK security firm that supplies vetted uniformed personnel to corporate clients, including many in London. The company needed a dependable way to notify and coordinate staff and clients during incidents—its previous mass-notification platform was costly and lacked desired functionality, prompting a search for a better solution.

Axis switched to BlackBerry AtHoc (AtHoc Alert), importing its contacts and templates with minimal disruption and using multi-channel, targeted alerts to reach 562 users across control rooms, field teams and building managers. The platform proved reliable in real incidents (notably a major gas leak), improved response coordination and situational awareness, lowered costs, and is now being expanded with additional AtHoc features.
