Then again, it used to be a basic paging system and now it is full-blown notification at every endpoint (not just a desk phone). > > I have had nothing but great results with InformaCast. Since the days before they were acquired and then spun off again, the employees who are still there are core to the group and their support staff really understand the product and how it integrates into real world situation. This is one of the few products that I am comfortable writing a review for because I know that a year from now, they won't have abandoned their product values, support or any other core components of the software. ----- ### "Informacast for overhead paging" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *31 October 2018* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The software is self contained and fast, it pulls in devices from our cisco system fast and accurately and allows for the system to operate seamlessly without any input after configuration > > **Cons**: The interface can be a little obtuse in certain situations, we had an issue with a speaker having the wrong sync time between cisco and informacast and it did not say that anywhere we had to speak with support before we even had the thought to check it. > > Overall the system has been a pleasure to use and has required little or no maintenance after it was configured for our needs. ----- ### "Good enough for a block party" — 4.0/5 > **Eric** | *5 December 2018* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: It never malfunctions, at least for what we use it. > > **Cons**: Price is a bit high, although it may be a value for those who use all its features. > > Good customer support. Which is finally what matters. ----- ### "Great mass notification software with lots of customization" — 5.0/5 > **Mark** | *28 July 2019* | Mining & Metals | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The software was easy to setup and integrate with Cisco call manager. There was a ton of videos on their website to perform any task that was needed from setup to configuration. The amount of custom setups that can be done is great and when integrating with other products this one becomes even more powerful. > > **Cons**: There were no real cons to this software - it does what is promised, it is low cost (for the most part) and scales very well. > > This product has been amazing, the support is great, integration is fantastic and the documentation is so good it is rare to see that level of details in products online - one other note on the documentation is that it is written for real world - it doesnt dive deep into the technology it gives what is needed with real examples. ----- ### "School System Use" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *4 November 2018* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is very easy to use and integrate with our Cisco phone system. It functions very reliably and the number of bell schedule supported as well as zones for making announcements are more than adequate for us. > > **Cons**: We have it running on a BE6000 along with subscribers for CUC and UCM. I seems to slow things down a bit. I may move the VM to our data center. The interface is intimidating to non-technical staff. > > Now that we understand that Informacast can do more than ring bells and make announcements, we plan to leverage the capabilities to improve student safety. A safe learning environment is priority one. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/176419/informacast?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/176419/informacast) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
