Alertus Desktop Overview

Alertus Desktop is a netcentric computer alerting software. When Alertus Desktop software is activated across your network, targeted client computers are overridden with a full screen alert containing your institution’s logo and custom text notification. Recipients can click an acknowledgement button at the bottom of their screen to close the alert, which confirms receipt of the message to the activator. The software has extensive real-time reporting capabilities.

Interoperability with numerous third party software systems allows activation through a single unified interface.

Alertus Desktop Grant Initiative

No Budget? No Problem


If you need to expand your emergency mass notification but have little or no budget, we can help. Apply today for a full grant of Alertus Desktop with an enterprise perpetual license.

Who Can Qualify: Universities, colleges, K-12 districts, as well as certain state and local government entities qualify. Corporations, healthcare institutions, and for-profit entities, in most cases do not qualify. The intent of our grant initiative is to help those with severe budget challenges. If you're not sure, apply anyway.

What You Get: A full enterprise license for the Alertus Desktop server and client software (PC & Mac). This is a fully functional product normally $38,950. The software capabilities and features are described on the Alertus Desktop product webpage. Your license allows you to deploy the software on all desktops and laptops within your facilities, managed or personally owned. The license never expires. Updates are released at no cost.

When You Get It: Almost immediately. Once you fill out the form on this page, we will contact you to verify some details, after which we'll send you a license agreement. Return that agreement signed. Grant approval typically occurs in one business day.

Why We Do This: Every campus and facility needs all the emergency mass notification capabilities they can get. But where will you find the money? The safety of millions, both students and staff, is being compromised by budgetary shortfalls and financial constraints. We believe that by helping you gain this essential capability without cost, you will later consider adding other elements of the Alertus Solution, such as Alert Beacons, Panic Buttons, Digital Signage and Cable TV Override Software and fire alarm integration. Meanwhile, you will have a superb desktop alerting system without adding one cent to your institution's budget.

How You Do It:
  • Step 1: Fill out the form on this page. You'll then receive the Alertus Desktop License Agreement listing technical requirements, and asking for some simple configuration details.
  • Step 2: Get the License Agreement signed and return it to Alertus via fax or email.
  • Step 3: Receive your username and password to login to the Alertus Customer Portal and download the software.

About Support: The Alertus Desktop software is specially designed for easy implementation. Comprehensive support documents are just a click away. This is a grant, so a certain amount of effort and technical ability are required on your part, but most institutions report they were up and running in a single day. If you need personalized technical support beyond basic emailed questions, there is a nominal cost associated. The vast majority of institutions report, however, that installation was simple and straight-forward.

About Integration: Alertus has partnered with most other mass notification providers, enabling a single unified interface to send alerts to Alertus Desktop. For more information, view the complete list of certified system integrators.
