Envoy vs. Everbridge
Emergency alerts your whole team can run, not just the SOC
Everbridge is a critical event management platform built for security operations, priced across modules and tiers. Envoy delivers fast, reliable multi-channel alerts in a system that's easy to use and built into the workplace platform you already run.
Envoy vs. Everbridge, side by side
Both send fast, multi-channel alerts. Only one is built into the workplace platform you already run, with no add-on fees and a setup your team can manage on the spot.
Envoy knows who’s in the building
Safety is consolidated into the platform you already run, with visitor sign-ins, employee presence, alerts, roll call, and digital signage all connected.
Quick and intuitive to get up and running
Envoy is easy to use for all the teams involved in emergency response. Your employee directory is synced through SCIM and SSO, and if you're already running visitor management through Envoy, visitors and contractors are already covered the moment they sign in.
Multi-channel alerting and two-way chat
Send alerts across SMS, email, Slack, Teams, and push notifications. Reach everyone in environments with non-mobile workers with visual alerts on digital signage. Account for who's safe and who isn't, with two-way chat, digital roll call at muster points, and post-event accountability.
One platform, no surprise add-on fees
Everbridge is typically priced across modules, contact tiers, and usage-based charges for things like SMS. Envoy prices Emergency Notifications per user, billed annually, so your costs stay predictable no matter how much you send.

Envoy centralizes how I can send emergency notifications to everyone that we have onsite in our multiple locations. Visitors wouldn't be in any other system. So, in the event of an emergency, I'd rely on Envoy to alert everyone of critical information."
