Body
Campuses with employees working onsite or remotely, need an E911 location management system that tracks device mobility and manage user locations. Enterprises are responsible for location tracking of any 911 call placed their communication network. Dispatchable locations ensure calls are delivered to the appropriate Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) for emergency assistance. This software is only intended for employees using a laptop and Jabber phone.
