Probably not: IT keeps organizations across the globe running. However, outages and downtimes always occur, and maintenance and updates must occur occasionally. This is the cause of a common frustration: failing systems and no information about what\u2019s happened, with heaps of work left to do. Employees need information about their systems to be able to do their job. How do they get that information? With desktop alerts, of course!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-yoast-seo-table-of-contents yoast-table-of-contents\"><h2>Table of contents<\/h2><ul><li><a href=\"#h-what-are-desktop-alerts\" data-level=\"2\">What are desktop alerts?<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#h-desktop-alerts-and-it-communication\" data-level=\"2\">Desktop Alerts and IT communication<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#h-inform-about-scheduled-maintenance\" data-level=\"2\">Inform about scheduled maintenance<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#h-inform-about-unscheduled-downtimes-or-outages\" data-level=\"2\">Inform about unscheduled downtimes or outages<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#h-reduce-email-overload\" data-level=\"2\">Reduce email overload<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#h-improve-cybersecurity-awareness\" data-level=\"2\">Improve cybersecurity awareness<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#h-inform-in-case-of-a-cyber-attack\" data-level=\"2\">Inform in case of a cyber attack<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-are-desktop-alerts\" style=\"font-size:19px\">What are desktop alerts?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Desktop alerts are notifications that appear on your desktop when you receive a new message, request, or task. They usually pop up in the right lower corner of your computer screen to draw attention \u2013 which they do! This makes them an ideal vehicle for important information, something we conveniently use in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/platform\/tools\/desktop-alerts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">our Desktop Alert solution<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With our Desktop Alerts, you get maximum visibility for important messages. When you publish a Desktop Alert, your targeted audience group will receive a pop-up notification directly on their desktop screens. High-priority messages will appear on top of the full-screen applications employees are working with at that moment, which means you draw their attention even when they\u2019re busy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Desktop Alerts can appear in your right lower corner or take over the entire screen to ensure staff gets your message. This way, they bypass email entirely to get attention. You can add acknowledgment buttons to ensure that staff has read and acknowledged important messages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-tiktok wp-block-embed-tiktok\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"tiktok-embed\" cite=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@netpresenter\/video\/7254896080763047195\" data-video-id=\"7254896080763047195\" data-embed-from=\"oembed\" style=\"max-width:605px; min-width:325px;\"> <section> <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"@netpresenter\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@netpresenter?refer=embed\">@netpresenter<\/a> <p>You think it&#8217;s hot in the office?

But how can desktop alerts be used to spread IT communication? Let\u2019s take a look at how you can use our Desktop Alerts solution. Many of our customers already successfully do \u2013 you can read their stories <a href=\"https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/customer-stories\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-inform-about-scheduled-maintenance\" style=\"font-size:19px\">Inform about scheduled maintenance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter how early you send out an email to notify your colleagues about scheduled maintenance \u2013 chances are, they still won\u2019t know about it when the day it\u2019s scheduled finally arrives. Emails can easily be overlooked in today\u2019s workforce\u2019s inboxes. Employees are flooded with emails: in 2020, the average office worker received 121 emails per day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The total number of daily business and consumer emails sent and received is forecast to grow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifewire.com\/how-many-emails-are-sent-every-day-1171210\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">to more than 347 billion<\/a> by the end of 2023. So, by 2023, the average worker will probably receive over 121 emails every day. Can\u2019t really blame your colleagues for overlooking certain emails\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With desktop alerts, your colleagues will always be aware of scheduled maintenance as they can\u2019t be overlooked and completely bypass email. They pop up on top of other applications being used at that moment and can have an acknowledgment button, so you\u2019re genuinely sure they have read the information. No more surprises for your colleagues!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/5_fullscreen-3-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"desktop alerts netpresenter\" class=\"wp-image-3584\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/5_fullscreen-3-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/5_fullscreen-3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/5_fullscreen-3-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/5_fullscreen-3-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/5_fullscreen-3-640x360.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/5_fullscreen-3-124x70.jpg 124w, https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/5_fullscreen-3-284x160.jpg 284w, https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/5_fullscreen-3-817x460.jpg 817w, https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/5_fullscreen-3.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-inform-about-unscheduled-downtimes-or-outages\" style=\"font-size:19px\">Inform about unscheduled downtimes or outages<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our customers gratefully use our Desktop Alerts to inform their staff about unscheduled downtimes or outages. Whenever there\u2019s downtime of any of their systems, they quickly publish an alert <a href=\"https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/customer-stories\/a-vital-tool-in-sky-lakes-communication-pathway\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">because they feel<\/a> they can be sure everybody gets it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The alerts allow organizations to have direct critical communication with their employees when they need it. They will help them understand what\u2019s going on, can tell them where to go for additional information about the current states of their systems, and will keep them updated throughout the downtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the systems are back up, they can also be used to inform everyone that their system has been restored. Our healthcare customers, especially, love to use our Desktop Alerts to reach employees who can\u2019t otherwise be reached immediately. For example, clinical staff who don\u2019t have access to overhead announcements or email. Read <a href=\"https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/customer-stories?cat_cases=healthcare#posts-desc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">their stories<\/a> to find out how they are using our Desktop Alerts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-reduce-email-overload\" style=\"font-size:19px\">Reduce email overload<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember the number of emails an average office worker receives daily? Well, with our Desktop Alerts, you can reduce that number for your employees! Instead of an email that will only get lost in your employees\u2019 inboxes, you send an Alert for urgent matters. We\u2019re not claiming you won\u2019t use email anymore, but we\u2019re pretty confident your employees will read the message in your Desktop Alert (they otherwise wouldn\u2019t have read it if it was an email).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-improve-cybersecurity-awareness\" style=\"font-size:19px\">Improve cybersecurity awareness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Desktop Alerts can be quickly sent when there is a threat to your organization\u2019s cybersecurity. You can provide immediate instructions on what employees must do to help avoid a cyberattack. For example, did one of your colleagues receive an email that looks like your CEO (who knows nothing about said email) sent it? You can easily and quickly inform your complete staff and tell them not to open the email by distributing a Desktop Alert with instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also target certain employees who may need reminders about cybersecurity protocols in your organization to help your organization\u2019s digital infrastructure stay safe and secure. With an acknowledgment button, you can track who has and hasn\u2019t read your message and who may need some new reminders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/4_fullscreen-3-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"desktop alerts netpresenter\" class=\"wp-image-3583\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/4_fullscreen-3-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/4_fullscreen-3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/4_fullscreen-3-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/4_fullscreen-3-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/4_fullscreen-3-640x360.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/4_fullscreen-3-124x70.jpg 124w, https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/4_fullscreen-3-284x160.jpg 284w, https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/4_fullscreen-3-817x460.jpg 817w, https:\/\/www.netpresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/4_fullscreen-3.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-inform-in-case-of-a-cyber-attack\" style=\"font-size:19px\">Inform in case of a cyber attack<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In case of an active cyberattack, you want to be able to act quickly and get a message out safely to all staff. A quick and safe way to briefly inform people of what\u2019s going on and how to act is by sending a Desktop Alert. It will pop up on top of other applications and can have any instructions you would like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We appreciate that staff needs more explanation than any desktop alert can convey in case of a real cyber attack. However, it will definitely help to inform your staff, all at once and wherever they are, that something is going on. It also enables you to include information about where staff will be given more instructions and explanations. Our attention boosters will automatically retarget anyone who hasn\u2019t yet read or acknowledged your message until they do, so you can be sure everyone will quickly be informed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you think your organization could use Desktop Alerts?
