"DLAN - A Review by Reg Fountain"

5/5

What do you like best about DisasterLAN?

DLAN is a very user-friendly intuitive program which supports the emergency management information management goals of my workplace. DLAN's modules have a Microsoft Office-like sense to them which greatly accelerates the use of the program by new staff Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DisasterLAN?

The mapping capability presently used within my workplace does not make the best use of the DLAN information datasets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DisasterLAN solving and how is that benefiting you?

DLAN and a number of its modules are presently used to assimilate, correlate and fuse information on potential or emergency hazards or incidents within the Province of Alberta. The ability to generate a common operating picture of the incident, hazard-related data, emergency management and emergency social services datasets is a great benefit to conducting operational-level emergency management operations Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"DLAN - FutureShield's choice for our Canadian Emergency Manager clients"

5/5

What do you like best about DisasterLAN?

FutureShield has been involved in re-selling EOC software since 2006. We have worked with many solutions and settled on DLAN to support the requirements of a BC based university and then again for the PanAM and Parapan Games in 2015. From there, we haven't looked back. DLAN is a comprehensive web-based solution (either cloud-based or installed at client sites) with a mobile responsive interface allowing it to be used in a physical or virtual EOC. We have had many Canadian organizations choose DLAN and they are very happy with the IMS/ICS forms, Sitrep and IAP automation, logs, ticket-based incident management, single-button reporting as well as flexible dashboards. For those looking to replace white boards, paper forms, and out-dated and less flexible solutions in the EOC, DLAN is a great choice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DisasterLAN?

FutureShield does not have any negative comments to make for DLAN. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DisasterLAN solving and how is that benefiting you?

DLAN balances the convenience and affordability of a COTS system with the capabilities of a customized solution tailored to an organization by offering three standard editions that can be configured in a number of ways to allowing it to meet the needs of our critical infrastructure and government clients. Our clients have noted many efficiency improvements in the management of incidents, events, and disasters through the use of the DLAN platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
