Since 2002 when Everbridge was founded , it has been necessary to adapt this offering to not only help government organizations get crucial messages out there , but also “ global businesses , large healthcare organizations , leading universities , transportation hubs , IT operations teams and much more ”. This has led to the service expanding to both operational and emergency-oriented applications . In short , there are many less dramatic incidents that can also pose threats to a business ’ operations and profits , and it became a priority to deal with these as well . Coldao adds : “ Beyond our core mass notification services , we have developed an industry-leading set of applications to improve organizational responses for all these diverse types of events to help keep people safe and businesses running faster .” Such issues range from IT outages , power outages , facility issues and scheduling challenges to supply-chain interruptions . In 2017 , Everbridge ’ s platform dealt with over 2bn messages across 200 countries and territories .
