Amerilert Features


SmartCode™. Simply cut and paste a line of code into your new or existing web page to create your registration, access point, or to display the actual notifications. One line of SmartCode inserted into your site creates a registration page without forcing the subscriber to leave your site. Another line of SmartCode, called the Bulletin Board, can display the actual alert content on any Web page. This means there is no new system to create and your subscribers don't have to jump to a third-party site to start the process. What could be easier than that?

Groups. Administrators can create an account with multiple groups. For example, the top-level account could send alerts to everyone, but groups might only send alerts to a particular zip code, team or interest group. Admins or Group Admins can administer these groups. Group Admins only have access to their group and cannot administer other groups or functions of Amerilert.

Bulletin Board. This SmartCode feature allows organizations to dynamically post any Amerilert message within their own Web site - instantly and automatically. The content posted in the Bulletin Board can speak to all users or one specific group. Administrators can post as many Bulletin Boards as desired. This means the Admin or Group Admin does not need to contact their own webmaster to update the organization's web site as notifications are sent.

S.E.E.D. - "Single Entry Email Delivery" allows you to simultaneously send an email to all users within your organization's email server by adding your enterprise-wide email distibution list to Amerilert. S.E.E.D. ensures 100% coverage of all organization users in Amerilert notifications from day one - whether they have opted-in to the cell phone alerts or not. And best of all, this will not reduce your account's user allocation.

Text-to-Voice. This optional feature will broadcast a voice message to traditional phones, VoIP phones, satellite phones, and mobile phones. The receiver of the call can send a confirmation back to Amerilert that the call was received.

Auto Opt-Out. The database can automatically remove a person from Amerilert notifications with user-defined expiration dates. Of course individual subscribers can remove themselves at anytime and the Administrator of the service can remove any subscriber at any time.

NetID Match. During the subscriber signup process, Amerilert can automatically insert your organization’s existing username/password from LDAP, Active Directory, or UserID for a subscriber into the Amerilert signup form. Simply place the signup form within your intranet and the form can automatically capture this information so users cannot input data that is different from your existing database.

Domain Authentication. You can configure SmartCode to only appear on authorized pre-defined URLs or domains. Therefore, your custom Amerilert signup forms or logins will not work on other Web sites.

Brandable. Administrators can brand the user interface to fit within the look of the organization’s Web site.

Validater™. Amerilert automatically validates subscriber's inputs to ensure accurate contact information. For instance, a subscriber cannot finish the sign-up process until receiving an authorization code on their mobile phone via an SMS text message. This ensures the subscriber is who they say they are, plus it tests the mobile phone for compatibility at the same time.

MultiRegister™. Subscribers can register one or all contact points, such as an e-mail address, mobile phone number, pager number, or RSS reader. It is the subscriber's choice.

Opt-in. Because cell phones and other mobile devices are the personal property of your recipients, we do not allow data to be imported into Amerilert. We adhere to all telemarketing and CAN-SPAM laws. Participants must OPT-IN to Amerilert.

Subscriber Management. Administrators can view, update, deactivate or remove subscribers from accounts or groups.

SMS Tester™. Administrators can send a test message to any mobile phone to ensure it is properly configured and can accept incoming messages.

Character Counter™. This feature counts the number of characters typed into a notification so the sender can see how it will appear on mobile phones once sent.

Dashboard. This allows an administrator to quickly see groups, subscriber statistics, message statistics, and links to common tasks.

Reporter. Administrators can review reports on activity, subscribers and messages sent.

Quickly notify large groups of people and keep them out of harms way


"Even when the networks become jammed and can't handle voice calls after use spikes during a catastrophe, the relatively few bytes of data in text messages usually get through.

It's a no-brainer: Wireless text should be the basis for an emergency information system."
