The SolusGuard Difference

What separates us from other panic buttons?  

Standard panic buttons only alert local law enforcement — leaving a gap in real-time communication. SolusGuard is the only integrated solution that unifies school staff and emergency response teams. 

With our interactive Active Alert View, teachers, dispatch agents, and responders can exchange messages and real-time location — all in one place.

  • Staff & Student Safety

  • Emergency Response

  • Cost Effective

Employee Safety

The lack of a reliable and rapid emergency response system can make educators, administrators, and students feel unsafe. The implementation of single-press panic buttons and real-time communication systems during emergencies can help establish an added layer of safety within schools and campuses.

emergency response

Our alert notification and communication solutions are designed to reduce emergency response times and facilitate a more coordinated response effort. By delivering instant, comprehensive updates, our system ensures that first responders receive the vital information they need — helping to secure a more favorable outcome during emergencies.

 

cost savings

By focusing solely on alert generation and response, our technology offers a targeted safety solution that is significantly more affordable than comprehensive building security systems. This efficiency means you can enhance campus safety without straining your budget.

 

Compliance

Alyssa’s Law requires K–12 schools to be equipped with at least one panic button or silent alarm to alert law enforcement during emergencies—a mandate already passed in seven states (New Jersey, Florida, New York, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Oklahoma), with ten more on the way. Implementing SolusGuard’s panic buttons ensures your school not only meets these compliance standards but also provides a higher level of protection.

Common Questions

Unsure if our safety solution is right for you?

How effective are wearable panic buttons in an emergency?

Wearable panic buttons are highly effective at decreasing response time during an emergency situation. The simplicity of a single-press button allows the wearer to signal for help in a matter of seconds. When combined with an emergency notification system, several people are informed of the alert as soon as the button is pressed, allowing them to enact a fast and coordinated response.  

What are the benefits of a wearable panic button compared to a wall mounted, desk mounted, or in-app panic button?

Increased accessibility in medical emergencies or physical assault situations. During these situations, individuals are often unable to reach buttons placed on a wall, desk, or within a smartphone app. This leaves the individual in a helpless situation where they are unable to send out an emergency alert.

Decreased risk of escalating aggressive behavior. Reaching for and pressing mounted buttons or triggering alarms sends a clear signal to the aggressor that the individual feels threatened. This can cause aggressive behavior to escalate faster. The discrete nature of pressing a silent wearable button allows the individual to call for help without signaling to the aggressor that they feel threatened. 

What are the benefits of a smartphone connected wearable panic button vs a standalone panic button device?

Generally, smartphone connected wearable panic button devices are smaller, lighter, have a longer battery life and are more cost effective than standalone panic button devices.  

Standalone panic button devices connect directly to a cellular or wifi network whereas smartphone enabled buttons leverage your phone's network connection to send out alerts. This makes standalone devices more reliable if the user doesn’t have a cell phone with them throughout the workday but comes at the cost of being more inconvenient to carry/wear, more frequent charging requirements, and additional monthly fees for cellular data plans.  

Are there any staff privacy concerns with using wearable panic buttons?

No. The SolusGuard wearable panic button only shares the users location when the button is pressed, and knowing an individuals location is critical for effective emergency response. We take privacy seriously, and it is common for staff to have concerns anytime a device is capable of sharing their location. This is why we ensure a users location is only shared in critical situations and that the user is always aware when their location will be shared.
