Emergency alert · Safety and security
The HotelGenie Emergency Alert module lets staff raise an emergency alert with a single button press, add the details responders need, and call for help from a built-in phone extension — as part of the HotelGenie suite or on its own.
Key capabilities
When seconds matter, the alert has to be simple to raise and rich enough to act on. HotelGenie Emergency Alert does both.
Speed
Staff trigger an alert with one press — no menus to navigate or numbers to remember under pressure.
Context
Optionally choose an alert category and add detailed event notes so the people responding know what they are walking into.
Voice
The module includes a built-in PBX extension to place and receive calls, keeping voice communication in the same tool as the alert.
How it works
Step 1
A staff member triggers an emergency alert with a single button press in HotelGenie.
Step 2
If there's time, select an alert category and add detailed event notes to describe the situation.
Step 3
HotelGenie sends the alert notifications, and the built-in PBX extension lets staff place and receive calls to coordinate the response.
Flexible deployment
Emergency Alert is included in the HotelGenie Hospitality Suite alongside the room phone, guest messaging and E911. Properties that only need emergency alerting can also run it as a standalone application.
Paired with HotelGenie E911, your team gets a complete picture: guest-initiated 911 calls with location details, and staff-initiated alerts for incidents on property.
Emergency module features
What is the HotelGenie Emergency Alert module?
HotelGenie Emergency Alert is a safety and security module that lets staff raise an emergency alert with a single button press. Alerts can include an optional category and detailed event notes, and the module has a built-in PBX extension for placing and receiving calls.
Can Emergency Alert be used without the rest of HotelGenie?
Yes. Emergency Alert is part of the HotelGenie Hospitality Suite, but it can also be deployed as a standalone application. Properties can start with emergency alerting and add other HotelGenie services later.
What information can be included with an alert?
Staff can optionally select a category for the alert and add detailed event notes describing the situation. That context helps the people responding understand what is happening before they arrive.
How is Emergency Alert different from E911?
HotelGenie E911 handles 911 calls placed from your phone system, sending the caller's location to the 911 center and alerting staff. Emergency Alert is a staff-initiated tool for raising and communicating alerts on property with a single button press. Many properties use the two together.
