Alertus Desktop™ for Chrome is a cost-effective mass notification tool designed to override computer displays with critical alert messages for emergency situations or routine internal communications. When an alert is initiated, targeted computer screens display a full or partial-screen alert, customizable with organizational logos and specific notification text. The extension supports flexible, centralized installation via G-Suite or Group Policy, with options for manual deployment. Administrators can leverage multiple HTML template options, customize alert text, ticker speeds, and logos, and review detailed auditing reports to track notification delivery and acknowledgments. It offers cross-platform support for Windows, Mac, Chromebook, and Linux computers running Chrome, and updates automatically. The extension operates non-invasively with minimal network traffic and features intelligent load management through the Alertus Server software to optimize notification speed and system stability. Integrations include ThreatWatcher for weather alerts and a Map Interface for geographically targeted notifications.
