Everbridge, Inc. has earned Frost & Sullivan’s prestigious 2020 Technology Leadership Award for best practices in the critical event management (CEM) industry. This award recognises companies that demonstrate excellence in growth, innovation, and leadership in their respective industries.

“Everbridge provides a best-in-class Critical Event Management platform that enables organisations to break down the silos between their physical and cyber security teams to create one unified platform with actionable intelligence to ensure the safety and security of their employees and property,” said Danielle Vanzandt, Industry Analyst at Frost & Sullivan. “Frost & Sullivan is honouring Everbridge with this Technology Leadership Award because of its demonstrated and revolutionary critical event management platform and the company’s innovative technology, customer-centric design, impressive partner network, and strong overall performance,” added Vanzandt.

Frost & Sullivan previously recognised Everbridge as the 2019 Technology Leader in the critical event management industry. Since winning the last award, Everbridge has continued to demonstrate innovation on its platform by adding new extensions such as CEM for Supply Chain and CEM for Internet of Things (IoT), more than doubling its number of CEM customers, and announcing blue-chip wins including some of the world’s most recognised brands and Fortune 500 companies.

As stated in the Frost & Sullivan report, “Everbridge CEM saves security operators valuable time by alerting them to incidents minutes or hours before they could manually piece together the data to create a whole picture of an incident. CEM even detects information technology systems’ disruptions and events that could prevent an employee from travelling safely, enabling clients to experience minimal operational downtime, ultimately decreasing OPEX and increasing revenues.”

Additionally, in response to COVID-19, Everbridge quickly launched a coronavirus data feed which supplements its existing real-time risk intelligence based on 22,000 data sources across 175 countries. To date, the Everbridge platform has delivered over 370 million communications specific to coronavirus, and launched its COVID-19 Shield rapid deployment software templates to protect people and maintain operations amid the pandemic.
