Case Study: University of California achieves rapid, secure campuswide emergency notifications with OnSolve MIR3

University of California sends critical notifications to a mobile audience

The University of California needed a way to reach students, faculty and staff across five campuses in real time for emergencies — regardless of whether people were on office phones, cell phones, email or SMS — while also gathering confirmed responses and keeping contact information private. To solve this, the university turned to OnSolve and its MIR3 mass notification solution.

OnSolve implemented MIR3 with a customized, web-based contact management interface that supports self-registration, opt-ins and targeted alerts by location or role, and sends voice, text and email notifications. The result: immediate, multi-channel notifications and two-way confirmed responses across campuses, faster launch of alerts, more effective targeting for responders and improved ability to mobilize emergency services and protect campus populations.
