image A True Mass Notification System NetSupport Notify is a specially developed solution allowing instant and reliable delivery of notifications and alerts across a LAN or WAN to both Windows and Mac desktops.
The philosophy of NetSupport Notify is to provide a simple and effective solution to allow administrators within an organization to reliably deliver key notifications to staff and pupils across an enterprise without concern for network topology and to provide accurate records of message delivery and acknowledgement.

Simple to use, fast and reliable, NetSupport Notify is the perfect choice for low-cost messaging and alerting across a LAN or WAN. Easy to implement and utilise, alerts carrying varying priorities and audibility can be delivered in seconds across the enterprise.

Notification Server

NetSupport Notify is based around its unique Notification Server technology. Installed on any Windows 2000, 2003, XP or Vista desktop or Windows 2000 / 2003 Server, the Notification Server manages connections to all desktop agents and ensures immediate delivery of all alerts. NetSupport Notify also includes redundancy, allowing multiple Notification Servers to be implemented and ensuring if that one is unavailable at any time, agent connections will automatically switch to the next available server.

The Notification Server also controls all agent and console connections and authenticates these against a unique user defined security key ensuring the system is only used by authorised staff.
