What is an Automated Notification System?
An automated notification system allows organizations of all sizes to share information instantaneously with hundreds or thousands of recipients. Some services also offer the flexibility to send messages to defined lists or groups of contacts, which improves relevancy. For recipients, this is an advantage because they only see the messages that matter to them. In a mobile world automated notifications are a fast and simplest way to send critical information in bulk to the right people, wherever they are.
