Information is powerful. And governments need a fast, efficient, and always-ready alert system that helps fulfill their responsibility to inform and protect citizens. Tele-Works product ushers in a new generation of affordable citizen notification solutions. Available in on-premise or hosted, alertworks™ is designed to better meet your individual agency needs at an affordable price.

Hosted or On-Premise. The choice is yours.
As an on-premise solution, your agency will host and manage the hardware and software infrastructure. You’ll be able to send notifications via phone call, voice message, and email while avoiding per call charges.
As a hosted solution, Tele-Works manages the full IVR infrastructure, providing you access to thousands of call-out ports so you can get alerts out in minutes.

Our low per minute pricing and never-expire minutes mean you never pay for what you aren’t using.
The hosted alertworks technology is second to none. Deployed over our state-of-the-art IP infrastructure, Tele-Works supports thousands of call-out ports across multiple redundant hosting facilities around the United States, which ensures the highest quality and most dependable notification product available. And by leveraging the most modern IP networks, we’re able to keep our per minute pricing down.
