Additionally, Everbridge’s mass notification platform has gained significant traction from federal agencies. Recently, it was selected by the United States General Services Administration (GSA) to ensure the protection of the agency’s employees and operations from all kinds of critical events across more than 700 locations.

Along with GSA, the company’s CEM platform is deployed by more than 70 federal agencies. Moreover, the company revealed that its platform, which is used by business, healthcare and government organizations worldwide, has exceeded 5 billion communications in 2020.
