DIR-S In Schools

4,0 11 maanden geleden

Opmerkingen: I think this has a lot of potential, and it works great when it works. BUT there always seems to be the one that missed the alert.

Pluspunten:

It seems like a great idea. The interactive maps and the way that you can chat with others. It all seems like a really good idea.

Minpunten:

Each time we do a drill, there is always the teacher that did not get the update. Whether their volume was turned down, or the app was not updated, or it just did not send. That seems to be a huge concern with dealing with emergency apps.

DIR-S in the public school

3,0 6 jaar geleden

Pluspunten:

You can see where everyone is and can communicate via phone/computer if there is an emergency.

Minpunten:

We have done emergency drills/procedures for many many years without this software, and it has been efficient. Teachers are very aware of where their students are and what to do in an emergency. This just seems to be a hassle to try and do everything we are supposed to do with this system on top of simply taking care of the children we are in charge of during an emergency. As a teacher, I do not carry my phone with me, nor do I have it on during the teaching day, simply because it is a distraction. Because I have moved schools frequently, I continually have to be updated in the system, and I don't know how to do that. We had a school fire drill today, and, though I thought I had been updated in the system, when I tried to log into it on my phone, I didn't know the passcode to get in. It just hasn't been a very useful tool for me as a whole, and does not seem that beneficial.

Thank you Jennifer for the review. We value your opinion and want to do everything we can to make DIR-S a better tool. Please send us an email and we can ensure your account is updated. The PIN is something the user sets, however we can show you how to create new one. Thanks again and we hope we can add value to an emergency, the last thing we want to do is add the commotion.

Saving Lives

5,0 6 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: DIR-S has allowed our local schools to connect law enforcement and schools in crisis situations. Not only law enforcement is connected, but the people in crisis are connected to the outside. We all use technology, and this is an amazing resource to use.

Pluspunten:

We’ve been testing the software in our local school. It’s quick, it’s functional and it’s going to save lives.

Minpunten:

There’s nothing to put here really, I want it to be more accessible to all schools and all students. This connects our law enforcement, schools, and is a way to change school safety and security.

Tresit brings the best peace of mind for a parent, knowing kids are safe at school is bar none.

5,0 7 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: I was able to see what was going on around school, to see that classrooms were safe and students were not in harms way.

Pluspunten:

I love being able to see the school, where is safe and where is yet to be marked safe. I also love that a teacher has the ability to control an alert if something is going on in the classroom. There is no better way to get notice of what is going on to police in hostile situations. I love that you could use this in schools, banks, offices, event venues, or wherever. This is state of the art, genius, and going to save lives.

Minpunten:

I think a 3D model of the school would be nice someday, a 2D version allows the basic essentials. one day I would love for some sort of technology that allows law enforcement, fire fighters, or whoever it may be in need to see levels of the school, office, bank, etc. and prevent difficult situations.

We have been looking for something like this for years to enhance the response and communication.

4,0 7 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: I love what it enhances in an emergency response between those in a crisis and those responding to help.

Pluspunten:

It is easy to use for everyone, both civilians and first responders. It can be used for everyday occurrences in our schools and not just for the active gunmen situation. In a serious emergency when 911 is overwhelmed and officers are responding from different agencies, it allows a quicker route to pertinent information. Basically is saves time!

Awesome software!

5,0 5 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: Having this software in our school lets parents be at peace while their kids are in school.

Pluspunten:

This software allows our school to connect to law enforcements even far better and faster than we used to

Minpunten:

The pricing can be steep for small schools but I think it is worth all the money. They do offer a free trial.

I have enjoyed using this product!

5,0 7 jaar geleden

Pluspunten:

I like that the product is user friendly and it eliminates confusion that occurs during emergency situations at schools. It alllows teachers to communicate with administrators and emergency personal during an incident.

Minpunten:

I wish the account settings would allow me to save without hitting the update button. There is a done button at the top, but if I hit Done before update it doesn't save.

Great product

5,0 6 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: We know that every one is accounted for in an emergency within seconds. We know who started the alert and can chat silently for further information. It connects to our police department so we get quicker response time. It connects the central office to each building for timely communication.

Pluspunten:

The chat feature allows us to communicate directly. We can locate students within seconds. The interactive map is helpful too.

Minpunten:

My teachers struggle with it. I don't think that it is the product though. Most of the frustration happens when using cell phones outside of the school's wifi range.

This has allowed us to simplify the emergency response routine and procedure.

4,0 7 jaar geleden

Pluspunten:

I like that it connects our school to the both district office and emergency response agencies which will improve the communication and direct efforts to the right location. It also provides a way for communication to continue during the emergency through the chat feature which will help everyone involved to remain focused and calm.

Minpunten:

We have had a little trouble when a substitute is present in a classroom and not logged in to a computer. Additionally, you cannot enter the program to "practice" without setting off an alert.

Excellent, versatile tool with incredible features and support!

4,0 7 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: I love that this communicates directly with our emergency personnel. It's easy to use and has drastically reduced our uncertainty about drills. It is also going to drastically decrease our response time in an emergency situation. THANK YOU!!!

Pluspunten:

I love that it is both on the computer and our smart phones. It's a great way for us to communicate with each other quickly in an emergency. It's incredibly intuitive. The visual contrast is excellent. I love that I can look down and tell by the huge, colorful icon, what I'm supposed to do. I also love the chat feature.

Minpunten:

I wish that there were possibilities of sectioning the chat rooms so that we had a space for missing kids, and for describing the danger. Other than that, this app is WONDERFUL!!!

More than a security measure

4,0 6 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: DIR-S makes communication in emergency situations accessible in the workplace.

Pluspunten:

DIR-S is a valuable tool for problem-solving both major and minor crises. It facilitates quick and easy involvement of the police when necessary. It also allows for effective communication without external emergency services for less pressing issues. The map feature can be especially useful for checking in with the safety status of your coworkers.

Minpunten:

The phone alert just shows up as push notification, which isn't very attention grabbing.
