How Beacon Emergency Dispatch Works

  • Beacon Dashboard Satellite View

Beacon Dispatcher is a do-it-yourself computer-aided dispatch (CAD) platform that allows any organization to design, test, launch and be ready to scale their own emergency dispatching system in 30 minutes or less.

 

Once the web account is set up and responders are registered*, dispatchers can alert, coordinate and track responders through SMS and/or the Beacon mobile app.

*Dispatchers and Responders require separate accounts. Click the Sign Up button below to learn how to set up each account type.

Beacon Responder is the companion mobile app that allows emergency responders to receive and reply to incident alerts anywhere.

  • Reduce response times
  • Streamline end-to-end coordination of emergency response operations
  • Improve incident outcomes

The app provides real-time communication and incident updates when connected to the Internet and also allows responders to switch to SMS mode when Internet is not available.
