SAN DIEGO, April 9, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MIR3, Inc., the innovator of real-time Intelligent Notification (IN™) and response technology, today announced that Advantis Credit Union, one of Oregon's largest member-owned, not-for-profit, financial cooperatives, is adopting Intelligent Notification Essentials™ edition as an internal tool to ensure business continuity and enhance the ability of company leaders to effectively communicate in and respond to emergencies.
Advantis will use Intelligent Notification Essentials to communicate directly with over 250 staff members in the company's corporate offices in case of an emergency or other business disruption. The Essentials edition empowers Advantis to deliver important messages to targeted audiences quickly and through multiple communication vehicles. The new system replaces the former cascading call-tree system, providing a faster, more reliable and more cost-effective way to reach all constituents at the same time while using fewer resources.
"Advantis has joined the ranks of other admirable financial institutions in choosing the Essentials edition as its notification solution," says Amir Moussavian, president and CEO of MIR3. "This demonstrates their commitment to protecting staff and assets from the unexpected and ultimately provides customers the assurance that their assets are protected as well."
Intelligent Notification Essentials edition is used by organizations seeking a streamlined way to deliver urgent notifications to employees, partners, vendors, customers and shareholders. It's employed by the military to mobilize and recall troops, law enforcement to direct officers, cities to alert citizens in times of threat or evacuation, and by universities to alert parents, students and staff about school closings and emergencies.
