Enabling quick reactions in critical situations
In today’s digital world, it is crucial that organisations scale their security measures effectively to meet growing demands. One particularly efficient method is alerting and triggering alarms via the desktop or using hotkeys. This innovative solution offers numerous benefits, including a faster response to emergencies. With a simple keystroke or mouse click, users can activate an alarm immediately, which can be life-saving in critical situations. This method also increases accessibility and ease of use, as employees can act quickly and efficiently regardless of their position in the organisation or their familiarity with complex alarm systems. It also improves efficiency and workflow as no additional devices or separate alarm systems are required. Overall, this technology contributes to a safer and more responsive working environment.
The importance of scalable security
As organisations grow, so does the complexity of their security needs. Traditional alarm systems often struggle to keep pace with increasing demands, leading to potential vulnerabilities. When it comes to desktop alerting, New Voice International’s Desktop.App plays a central role in overcoming these challenges and providing a reliable, user-friendly solution for modern corporate security.
Why should you use New Voice's Desktop.app for alerting?
Immediate attention and response:
HotKeys: One of the new features in Release 16 is the ability to trigger alerts via customisable HotKeys. This means that users can react quickly and efficiently in an emergency situation, such as a fire alarm or a panic button at work. The HotKeys drastically reduce the response time, which can be crucial in critical moments.

LockScreen integration:
The Desktop.app makes it possible to receive and trigger alarms even when the device is locked. This feature is particularly useful for remote monitoring of employee safety and protection for lone workers. In industries such as retail, where a panic button may be required for retail shops, this provides an additional layer of security.

User-friendliness and integration:
Easy login: The ability to use configuration files makes the login process much easier. This makes the Desktop.App not only user-friendly, but also efficient to implement and manage. This is a great advantage for complex security solutions such as a hotel alarm system or a bank alarm system.
Increased reliability and redundancy:
Redundancy: With Release 16, the Desktop.App now also offers server redundancy. This means that the system continues to function even if the primary server fails. This reliability is crucial for effective risk management and incident management in accordance with ISO 27035. Companies can be sure that their business alarm system will continue to work reliably even in times of crisis.
