Important features in an employee notification system include an available app, two-way messaging, keyword sending (for sign-up and incident reporting), surveys, voting, appointment setting advanced scheduling of alerts and messages. Systems like Simplified Alerts offer advanced notification system features like IT status alerts, employee panic alerts and employee geo-check-ins to quickly locate employees.
