Voyent Alert! is a multi-purpose communication service used to send alerts to residents, businesses, and visitors during critical events like extreme weather, fires or floods, etc. as well as for relevant day-to-day communications such as snow removal advisories, planned maintenance, water advisories, etc.

What you can expect

Personalized communications

Using Voyent Alert!, we will provide information such as the distance and direction from an incident, and preferred evacuation routes from your tracked locations if required. The system will also be used to make you aware of any construction projects or service outages that may affect your home, business or route of travel.

Track multiple locations

The notification system allows you to create and track multiple locations such as “kids School” or “Mom’s House”.  Any event or communication related to your tracked locations will be forwarded to you along your preferred communication channel.

Communication your way

Receive alerts over a wide variety of communication channels including mobile apps, text/SMS alerting, email or voice dial. You can register for one or more of these communication options.

No message fatigue

Smart alerting capabilities ensure that you will only get notified when a communication is relevant to you or one of the locations you are tracking.

For more information you can check out the FAQ and the Voyent Alert Privacy Policy.
