Top Rated RAVE Alert Alternatives
We really like the ease of use. There have been improvements over the years which we were happy with (and had suggested a couple that were implemented). The Rave team has always been very good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
With the recent changes by FEMA (or whoever it was) regarding the automatic weather notifications, we have some fears about these going out. The fix was rapid but we are still a little unsure of everything with it now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Rave allows us to give the necessary information to our Faculty, Staff and students Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I dislike that RAVE has yet to develop an APP for easier access. At this time we have to log into a PC, half the time the password has expired and the other half we log into the wrong site. RAVE is very inconvienent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Rave Alert allows us to create predetermined alert templates for many different potential emergencies. Students get automatically registered into the system once they register as students, and the institution does not have to have a dedicated person to populate and register students.
