An important consideration in any business continuity plan is communication. During an incident, crisis, disaster, or emergency, companies must communicate with employees, partners, customers, local authorities, and other external parties. Communication must be tailored to the needs of each audience and provide actionable information. There must be two-way communication. Companies need to receive status and updated contact information from each individual.
There are a number of technologies and services in the market that enable policy-based mass communication to almost any kind of device (phone, mobile phone, text, email, etc.). While they all offer the same essential features, there can be differences in deployment method (premise or SaaS), ease of setup, integration with internal systems, message delivery, response collection, service-level availabliity, and pricing structure.
