Enhance communication and boost emergency and lockdown procedures
Using NetSupport Notify, schools and businesses can communicate effectively with staff (and students) using one-way alerts and notifications – sending them to desktop users across the organisation, those working remotely on school/work devices, and even to large information panels in halls and foyers. It provides a welcome backup for existing technology failures (such as e-mail) and provides a perfect way to support risk assessments and support your health and social distancing communication – for example, reminding users to use hand sanitiser or to maintain group bubbles.
Alerts automatically take screen focus, meaning they can’t be hidden, ignored or saved for later. The notifications can even be targeted to select groups and scheduled for maximum impact. Scaling to the largest of schools/businesses with multiple sites, NetSupport Notify also provides real-time status of notifications and acknowledgements в€’ as well as delivering pre-scheduled alerts.
Simple to implement and use, and with fast and reliable alerts, NetSupport Notify helps ensure staff (and students) instantly have the information they need to work effectively and stay safe in any emergency situation.

Great for quick messages to all users
What do you like best?
I love net support notify, it's very easy to use, you can send quick messages to all users or target certain users or even teams if you set it up that way. User can't ignore the message and it's massive! The ability to target groups of users makes this product amazing and also the fact you can see which users have seen your message, stops the "I didn't see your message" scenario because you can see they've clicked OK to dismiss the message! This can be intergrated with AD and GPO and also be deployed with MSI on GPO which, once you've got the policies correct, means the program is install automatically on the next GPUpdate.
What do you dislike?
The only downside was deploying this automatically across the network was a little difficult, however support was very good when I called them and guided me through the best practice for setting the GPO specifically for their product
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I did extensive research on this product and I can highly reccomend it.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I need a quicker communication method to all my end users than email and NetSupport Notify smashed our requirements. We grew very sick and tierd of users claiming not so to see emails and ending up ultimately costing the company downtime that was always placed on the IT Dept's shoulders, never the team who didn't listen to the emails going around. This software gives you proof that your message was read by the users and accountability if issues arrise because a user didn't listen
