The Navigate360 Difference
Navigate360 Deepens Partnership with Market-Leading Providers Critical Response Group & 911Cellular to Offer Layered, Affordable, & Dependable Emergency Management Alternatives to Other Point Solution Providers
A holistic approach is the only viable option for schools who want to keep their campus safe. That’s why Navigate360, the leading K-12 school safety partner, proudly provides an integrated, cloud-based platform that simplifies emergency planning, compliance, real-time response, and student-guardian reunification, ensuring full accountability across the entire spectrum of an emergency.
Time Equals Life
Nearly 70% of school shootings end in less than 5 minutes. More than half of those end in less than 2 minutes.
The average time it takes to notify law enforcement without any panic alert solution in place is on average between 5 and 8 minutes.
Their response time? 8 to 15 minutes.
Schools are juggling countless priorities and emergency planning can often feel overwhelming with complex drills, procedures, and compliance requirements. The Navigate360 solution cuts through the noise and makes it easier for administrators and staff to prepare effectively for any situation.
Every second counts before, during, and after an emergency. True safety starts before a crisis occurs—with preparation, prevention, and training—and extends through real-time response, communication, and reunification. While many solutions focus solely on alerting and informing, Navigate360 goes beyond by empowering schools with a proactive approach to safety.
Navigate360 equips schools with the tools, training, and intelligence needed to mitigate risks before they escalate—ensuring a comprehensive, end-to-end safety strategy.
Navigate360 is the ideal solution for districts seeking a strategic, all-encompassing safety system. When it comes to breadth and depth, Navigate360 rises to the top with a comprehensive approach, covering more ground with advanced accountability, preparation tools, and recovery features.
360-Degrees of an Emergency
School safety requires a collaborative approach and Navigate360 provides evidence-based solutions driven by experience, data, and expertise allowing you the flexibility to choose the tools and strategies that work best for your students and community across the entire spectrum of an emergency.
Delivering an emergency alert is bare minimum functionality for security technology. Accurately, quickly, and efficiently being able to inform, respond, and reunify are critical next steps. However, a truly layered, holistic approach to school safety requires adequate preparation of staff, students, and the community for any type of situation and leveraging training, curriculum, resources, and technology to further prevent everyday situations, and the unthinkable.
This is what sets Navigate360 apart – combining Alyssa’s Law-compliant panic buttons with a complete ecosystem for preparation, response, recovery, and prevention—all synced with a school’s Student Information System (SIS) for real-time accuracy.
Further, Navigate360’s expanded partnership with 911Cellular and Critical Response Group (CRG) unites three industry-leading technologies with one singular focus—to accelerate response time in an emergency. The result is a best-in-class solution that provides schools with an unmatched level of security, ensuring faster and more efficient response.
When every second counts, the speed and effectiveness of a school’s emergency response system can be the difference between lives saved and tragedy. By choosing Navigate360, you are equipped with the fastest, most reliable tools to protect your students and staff with actionable information, shortened response times, and enhanced coordination between staff and first responders. You are putting a process in place to make sure the right students go with the right people and every box is checked, and documented at the end of the event, which is something our competition simply cannot do.
The Navigate360 Difference: Comprehensive, Intuitive, Reliable
Alert
Alerting others to a situation is just the beginning. While many school safety providers offer one, two, or even three alerting options, Navigate360 provides seven—ensuring a panic button solution that works no matter where the person initiating the alert may be. Whether they are at the front of the classroom, seated at their desk, or walking the halls, Navigate360 offers multiple ways to trigger an alert at the first sign of an emergency, ensuring immediate and effective communication.
This far exceeds any competitor, with options including wearable badges, wall-mounted buttons, keyboard and desk phone triggers, and mobile and smartphone safety apps—delivering the flexibility and accessibility needed to initiate an alert quickly.
Once triggered, alerts are sent schoolwide both visually and audibly, with the ability to text, email, or take over screens and devices—capabilities unmatched by the competition.
Inform
The next necessity is being able to inform those on campus of real-time critical information across multiple technology options so that nothing is missed, and everyone is aware of the situation, and remains informed throughout its entirety.
Navigate360 allows you to customize, and limit, who gets each alert so you can accurately and efficiently decide who should be informed of what while providing a solution that helps you throughout the full event – from preparing and preventing, to alerting and informing, through responding to reunifying – the only path to comprehensive school safety.
The Navigate360 approach focuses on coordination, speed, and clarity – removing the obstacles that hinder decision making and limit coordination with first responders. We continue to learn and grow alongside key industry leaders, elite partners, and most importantly, our valued customers.
Having solutions in place is a start, but ensuring they seamlessly work together during every stage of an emergency is what will help your community trust that you, and Navigate360, are doing everything possible to keep our students safe.
Ease of Use & Full Accountability
Emergencies are hectic and scary for everyone involved. Staff cannot be expected to use complicated technology when they are attempting to understand what the emergency is, who to contact, or how to respond. Navigate360 offers user-friendly, multiple options — the easiest of which being a single-click wearable badge — that seamlessly integrate with panic alert communication systems to provide critical emergency information and initiate response protocols.
Widespread Notification
In many past tragedies, not everyone in the building was accurately notified that a lockdown was in place leaving many students and staff uninformed about what was happening, and in some cases, wandering the halls trying to find out. Navigate360 provides instant and accurate visual and audible notifications to ALL occupants while at the same time, alerting SROs, first responders, and 911 – making sure no one misses the message, and everyone is aware of the situation.
Location, Location, Location
It is crucial for first responders to know exactly where, on a detailed map, help is needed, or valuable time is lost. 50% of school shootings happen outside the walls, in playgrounds, parking lots, or fields. Navigate360 provides indoor and outdoor location services, as well as streaming audio from wearable badges so no one needs to speak directly to 911 or first responders.
Respond
It is evident that alerting in one way, shape, or form is not enough when it comes to protecting our staff and students. Navigate360 provides all the appropriate options and continued coordination during a response to relay all the critical information to the right people, at the right time. Schools need proven integrations with all safety technology.
Building a Comprehensive Approach to Safety
Go beyond lockdown and create a complete emergency management ecosystem that covers the entire spectrum of an event, whether an everyday situation or emergency. This includes:
- Emergency Operations Planning (EOPs)
- Drill Management & Reporting
- Detailed Site Mapping
- Automated Risk Assessments & Safety Audits
- Student & Staff Accountability
- Live Chat
- Centralized Document Storage & Sharing
- Communication with First Responders
- Staff Training Programs
- Automatic Alarm Notification to First Responders & 911 Dispatch Centers
Full accountability means knowing where every student, staff member, and visitor is in real-time, who’s safe and who’s not, or you risk delaying reunification or even worse, losing track of people. The Navigate360 system is tied to your SIS or system of record and able to instantly mark a student safe to ensure no one slips through the cracks. Accountability also means making sure you have the best school safety ecosystem in place.
Navigate360 provides:
- Streamlined Preparation Through Integration: A centralized, cloud-based platform that simplifies emergency planning and reduces the complexity of multiple systems or manual processes.
- Real-Time Accountability During Response: Alyssa’s Law-compliant panic buttons and SIS syncing.
- Seamless Recovery with Reunification Tools: Structured reunification processes, SIS syncing, and organized hand-offs post-crisis in one system.
- Holistic Coverage Across All Phases of an Emergency: An EM platform that spans prevention, preparation, response, and recovery.
- Enhanced Efficiency & Compliance: Automated compliance with state and federal regulations while reducing the need for multiple vendors.
A future with zero incidents takes a layered, holistic approach. The approach Navigate360 takes ties preparation (e.g., drills), response (e.g., panic buttons), and recovery (e.g., reunification) into a single platform. With Navigate360, you can set a foundation for learning and well-being, proactively address concerning behaviors, and maximize your community’s readiness to act without the complexities of handling multiple vendors. This is the difference between scrambling across a variety of tools and having everything – alerts, maps, headcounts, and more – right at your fingertips.
