Alertus Campus Solutions

Instantly Notify and Alert the Entire Campus Community

In the event of an emergency, campus safety officials must be equipped to immediately reach students, faculty, staff, and visitors across large areas and multiple facilities.

Whether issuing alerts around an active shooter event or severe weather threats, relying solely on email or text notification limits your ability to reach intended audiences who may not have easy access to mobile devices or email. Alertus offers a full suite of modular solutions to help you fill notification gaps, achieve your communications goals, and provide peace of mind.

For nearly two decades, Alertus has worked with hundreds of colleges and universities across North America to achieve comprehensive emergency notification coverage throughout academic, residential, recreational, and administrative settings.

Get comprehensive Coverage

The Alertus Alert Beacon serves as an in-building emergency notification system for campuses, offering a practical, attention-grabbing, and affordable device which can be used in place or as an extension of a conventional public address (PA) system. Reliable and easy to install, these wall-mounted devices offer audible and visual emergency communications that are not dependent on congested cell phone towers or the internet.

Designed to seamlessly integrate with existing systems such as fire alarm panels and digital signage, Alert Beacons significantly expand notification reach. They are ideal for retrofitting buildings without PA systems and can help institutions meet mass notification codes and mandates, including The Clery Act, ADA, NPFA 72, and more.
