Regroup’s Messaging Capabilities: Empowering Smarter, Faster Communication

In today’s fast-paced and unpredictable world, effective communication is more than a convenience—it’s a necessity. Whether you’re managing a crisis, coordinating daily operations, or engaging with a global workforce, Regroup’s mass notification platform offers a robust suite of messaging capabilities designed to keep organizations connected, informed, and resilient.

Multi-Channel Communication: Reach Everyone, Everywhere

Regroup’s platform ensures messages are delivered across multiple channels simultaneously. For emergencies, routine updates, or timely warnings, Regroup’s easy-to-use mass notification platform delivers messages quickly to the right people, wherever they are, including:

  • Traditional Channels: Reach people via text/SMS, phone, email, push notifications, and more.
  • Desktop Alerts: Deliver instant alerts with full-screen, partial-screen, or pop-up desktop notifications, ideal for emergencies and routine communications.
  • Digital Signage: Regroup can be integrated with on-site digital signage to display messages in high-visibility locations.


This multi-channel approach guarantees that recipients receive critical information in the format they prefer, increasing engagement and response rates.

Two-Way Messaging: Real-Time Feedback and Engagement

Communication isn’t just about broadcasting—it’s about listening. Regroup’s two-way communication capability enables administrators and users to connect instantly through the app to respond to alerts, confirm safety status, or provide updates. The platform allows messages to be sent and received in real-time, ensuring fast, reliable, and interactive communication across the organization.

Recipients can quickly respond with free-form text, geolocation data, images, and audio recordings directly from their mobile device. Admins receive immediate feedback and can manage all responses from a single Regroup web or mobile app interface, ensuring everyone receives the necessary information. Beyond standard messaging, Regroup supports dynamic engagement tools, including polls, voice polls, surveys, and panic alerts or help requests, providing users with multiple ways to provide feedback, share information, or request assistance. These tools enhance situational awareness, promote user participation, and enable organizations to respond quickly and effectively to welfare checks or emergencies, facilitating faster decision-making. 

Polling and Surveys: Gather Insights Instantly

Need to collect feedback or assess a situation quickly? Regroup’s customizable Responsive Alert & Pollingand survey tools let organizations gather real-time data from their audience. Whether it’s a wellness check, opinion poll, or operational update, this feature enhances responsiveness and informed action to gather real-time feedback, enhance situational awareness, and make informed decisions.

Polling is another effective way to gather responses, allowing for polls and surveys for both critical (e.g., emergency roll-call) and non-critical (e.g., shift cover) notifications. Admins can initiate messages with pre-configured response options, and additional polling features include Regroup’s auto-retry functionality for non-responders and geolocation gathering.

Geofence Messaging

Regroup’s Geofence messaging empowers clients to establish virtual boundaries and deliver targeted notifications to individuals within specific areas. Notably, Regroup stands out by offering unique entry and exit message options, ensuring those moving into or out of designated zones receive relevant alerts.

The capability to send precise, location-based mass alerts is crucial, especially during emergencies where every second counts. Whether you’re reaching staff members, individuals near an incident, or citizens in a vulnerable area, Regroup’s Geofencing feature ensures everyone remains safe and informed based on exact location.

Regroup makes Geofence messages possible in two ways: based on a static stored address in recipients’ profiles, and based on the user’s dynamic location when the Regroup app is installed on their mobile devices. Regroup’s award-winning mobile app enables real-time Geofence messages by allowing users to manage notification settings and activate location services as a premium add-on. Once Regroup Mobile is downloaded and location services are enabled, devices can receive specific Geofence messages based on the user’s current location.

How it Works:

  1. Define the Geofence: Utilize the circle tool to establish a radius around the desired target location, or you can use the polygon or freehand tool to create a more custom location shape. 
  2. Target Your Audience: Select whether to notify your entire audience or specific groups only. 
  3. Customize Message Content: Create tailored messages based on recipient location—inside, entering, exiting, or having an address within the targeted area.
  4. Analyze Delivery and Activity: Review detailed data on message delivery within the Geofence, including entry and exit counts.

With virtually limitless applications, Geofencing allows industries to leverage targeted alerts to solve various pain points, including production, scheduling, safety advisories, and managing critical incidents like severe weather or crime.
