BURLINGTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Everbridge, Inc. (NASDAQ: EVBG), a global software company that provides critical event management and enterprise safety applications to help keep people safe and businesses running, today announced that Hulu, a premium streaming television destination, has selected Everbridge’s Safety Connection™ solution to improve their ability to locate and communicate with mobile, travelling and remote employees during critical business incidents and emergencies.

Traditional manual approaches to critical communications may be insufficient in ensuring physical security and employee safety. Crises occur quickly and without warning so deploying Everbridge Safety Connection to keep track of employees’ locations, even when they are traveling or moving between buildings and campuses, is a critical component to ensuring global employee safety. The solution aggregates geo-location data from multiple systems – wireless network access points, travel itineraries, home and office location records, and check-ins through its mobile application – to take a multi-pronged approach to locating employees, responders, contractors or visitors who are potentially at risk. Leveraging this data, organizations can then target notifications via SMS text, voice, mobile app, digital signage or desktop alerts.

“During a location-specific critical event, time is of the essence so companies need to be able to quickly find and communicate with their global employees,” said Jaime Ellertson, CEO of Everbridge. “Everbridge’s Safety Connection solution dynamically locates people who may be at risk, or can respond to an incident, and automates targeted, relevant communications to keep people safe and informed.”
