New Features & Enhancements August 2010



Introducing MultiConnect

Are Your Residents Within Reach?
As we constantly evolve our services to provide you with the ultimate communication tool for your community, we are now bringing you MultiConnect!

The two facets of the MultiConnect service are AlertCast and BulletinBlast. AlertCast sends important messages from your AtHomeNet website to your entire Address Book by email, a text message to their mobile phone and an automated voice call. Whether it is an impending tornado, hurricane, or even an Amber Alert in the area, AlertCast is critical for community emergencies. BulletinBlast allows community website administrators to enhance your Email Bulletins with text messages and automated voice calls.

By implementing MultiConnect on your website, it will also become a feature of your mobile website, giving you the ability to send important messages to the whole community, directly from your mobile device. For more information about adding the MultiConnect feature to your website, contact your sales representative today or visit www.AtHomeNet.com
