LEESBURG, VA – Omnilert, LLC, maker of the
leading mass notification system for higher education called e2Campus,
today announced that their e2Campus technology has been integrated into
Visix digital signage systems. This technology integration will allow
for unprecedented mass communication of urgent news to all students,
faculty and staff. With one click of a button, any authorized campus
official can instantly and simultaneously push an urgent message to the
campus web site, to all digital visual displays around campus, and to
the cell phones, email accounts, and RSS readers of the entire campus
community.
The new technology is available immediately for purchase and
implementation. Current e2Campus customers should contact his or her
e2Campus representative for details. Current Visix customers simply
upgrade their MessageBlox service to include Text Messenger. There is a
one-time set up fee of $1,749 for the software module, plus applicable
e2Campus rates. The e2Campus service costs about $1 per user per year,
depending on the total number of recipients to be covered.
About e2Campus
Endorsed by Security On Campus Inc. and used by schools around the
country, e2Campus is the Web-based mass notification system that enables
school officials to self-administer and send time-sensitive messages for
a fraction of the cost and complexity of existing notification
solutions. There is no traditional software to install, no hardware to
buy and no additional phone lines needed. A school can set up a secure
notification system in minutes to send routine, urgent or emergency
notifications to their entire campus community or smaller groups, such
as multiple campuses, residence halls, staff-only or sports news.
e2Campus instantly and simultaneously sends mass alerts to a
subscriber's mobile phone (via SMS text message), BlackBerry, smart
phone, wireless PDA, text pager, e-mail account, and RSS reader, plus
all campus digital signage and relevant Web pages. To learn more, visit
