Survey finds almost 75 percent of campuses use multiple emergency notification systems

But this total represents a drop since the last survey


Campus Safety’s 2020 Emergency Notification Survey found that almost 75 percent of campuses use multiple emergency notification systems, according to an article on the Security Sales & Integration website.

Nearly three out of four respondents have two or more systems installed, with 70 percent of higher ed and healthcare respondents and 76 percent of K-12 respondents indicating they’ve adopted this practice. 

Twenty-one percent of respondents use four or more emergency notification systems.

One in four respondents said their campus or organization only uses one alert system, which is an eight-percentage-point increase compared to last year’s survey when only 17 percent of respondents said they didn’t have multiple systems deployed.
