How ReadyAlert became an industry leader
Our Story
On September 11, 2001, as America faced an unprecedented crisis, traditional communication systems failed when they were needed most. Phone lines were jammed. Internet connections faltered. But one channel remained surprisingly reliable: text messaging.
​​
This critical insight became the foundation for ReadyAlert Services. Founded in 2003 as a direct response to the communication failures witnessed during 9/11, our mission was clear: create a multi-channel alert system that would never fail when lives and businesses depend on it.
​​
What began as a solution to a national tragedy has evolved into today's comprehensive critical communications platform—but our founding principle remains unchanged: reliability isn't just a feature, it's our reason for existing.
​
Lessons Built into Every Feature
​
The lessons of 9/11 aren't just part of our history—they're engineered into every feature of ReadyAlert's platform:
-
Multi-Channel Redundancy: When one communication method fails, others take over—just as text messages succeeded when calls couldn't get through.
-
Two-Click Alerting: Because in a crisis, every second counts and complexity costs lives.
-
Persistent Alerting: Messages that continue until acknowledged, ensuring no critical communication goes unnoticed.
-
Satellite Connectivity Options: Ensuring function during cellular and internet outages—because emergencies don't wait for restored services.
From healthcare facilities to first responders, from corporate campuses to school systems, ReadyAlert delivers on a promise born from one of America's darkest days: When everything else fails, we won't.
​
A Legacy of Trust
​
"I put ReadyAlert through three weeks of stringent testing before I recommended it to my Chief. It is the most bullet-proof system I have seen." — NASA Engineer
​
From Border Patrol to healthcare systems like AdventHealth, from educational institutions like Penn State to retail giants like Office Depot and Raising Canes—organizations that cannot afford communication failures choose ReadyAlert.
They trust us not just for our technology, but for our unwavering commitment to a mission that began over two decades ago: ensuring critical messages always get through.
​
Because while the world has changed dramatically since 2001, one thing remains constant—in moments of crisis, reliable communication saves lives, protects assets, and maintains operational continuity.
