Dear customers and partners,

to the start of the year we like to present our first update to you.

The update focuses mainly on improvements and new functionalities of the web-interface. But also the EVALARM apps get an update. This week we will start with the update of the web-interface. Next week the apps will follow.

Update 1 – Web (30.01.2020):

• Alarm Report – after ending an alarm you now have the possibility to export the alarm as a PDF with all the details
• Voice-Messages – if you already have the module "SMS", you now have the possibility to apply for the "Voice-Message" module. With this module you can send defined messages, transmitted via call with text-to-speech. The costs are the same as for SMS, depending on the length of the message.
• Inactive users – to facilitate the administration of the users, now users with no active session (not logged in) are greyed out.
• Chain SMS – now it is possible to send info messages via SMS with more signs than a SMS with standard length. You can send up to 4 messages, but the user receives it as one long message. The costs are depending on the length of the message.
• Alarm location indicator web cockpit – The red marked alarm location in the overview plan in an active alarm is now also in the web cockpit as known from the apps. Therefore you have to open the overview plan in the section "maps".
• Enhancement of the functionalities for "local admins" – now it is possible for non-admins with admin-permissions to reset the password for users.
• Improvement of alarm device connection via E-mail – after configuration of a alarm device via E-mail you can directly generate the parameters for the E-mail via a button.
• Integration of interface to SAM
• Several translation- and stability improvements

Update 2 – App (6.2.2020):

• New feature "Unread alarms" – we improved the user interface for unread alarms. If there are unread alarms, on the start screen and in the alarm archive will display an orange banner. Via the orange banner you can display all unread alarms. Via the "X" you can mark all unread alarms as read.
• Synchronisation of the alarm archive – the alarm archive now shows all alarms of the past 7 days. External alarms are also synchronized.
• Fix: Badge fault – On some iOS devices the EVALARM app showed a permanent alarm badge, even though all notifications were read.
• Fix: Duplicate displaying of alarms – On some iOS devices a few alarms were displayed duplicated

Sneak Peak:

At the moment we are working on a new EVALARM module – the patrol rounds! This will be expected available in the first quarter of 2020. With this module it will be possible to implement patrol rounds as task lists and the confirming of the data points/tasks can be done via NFC/RFID chip or Bar/QR-code. Additionally the data points/tasks can be commented. So you can easy document your regular patrol rounds with EVALARM.

We wish you a successful start into 2020 and hope that you like our innovations. For feedback or questions please contact our support team under support@evalarm.de or https://servicedesk.evalarm.de.
