The software automatically sends responders additional information, including a live map of the employee’s location, essential personal and company data, and predetermined procedures to handle alarm calls. Administrators may set timed check-ins, and employees will receive notifications to confirm they are okay after the expiration of check-in periods. The incident reporting function allows workers to log incidents from the app, and the digital logs will automatically update, allowing administrators to view their safety trends. Protector enables supervisors to see clusters of incidents on a live map and identify repeated maintenance issues with equipment. It also reduces the risk of manual error, unreported incidents, and liabilities associated with manual reporting. > > Verdict: Rated **4.7/5** by 17 users.

This we found in the Protector alert system from Vatix. It is so simple to download and can be set up and activated immediately. Its intuitive functionality means that timed alerts can be set, changed and stopped within seconds and its emergency alarm setting is a reassuring function for our staff. Linking to a live location map is an added safety feature and means that our service managers can see at a glance if any issues in the field need attention. It is exactly what we need to support our staff carrying out lone working activities in the community. > > **Cons**: The system is exactly what we need to keep our staff safe when lone working > > Excellent. Support from the Vatix support team has also been excellent and made sure that the implementation of the system and training for our 500 users was slick and hassle free. We are also impressed with the ongoing development work to improve the performance and functionality of Protector. Would highly recommend the product and company ----- ### "Evolving software, good quality hardware" — 3.0/5 > **Nicholas** | *23 May 2022* | Packaging & Containers | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Actually it is the hardware that is the most impressive, good quality, robust and simple to operate. The response from the monitoring team is also prompt and professional. > > **Cons**: We did have an issue with the QR Code scanning feature on the companion mobile app which lasted a few days, meaning our people couldn't assign the devices to themselves using the mobile app. This was resolved and has since worked fine. The interface is not particularly intuitive to use and the need to switch between the Protector and Admin interfaces to perform certain functions on the users is not clear. Setting up new users and the user portal are hopefully being reviewed to improve the ease of creating new users and to allow some self maintenance by the users i.e. ability to add their own Date of Birth and verification phrase. > > Lone worker protection is what we needed to achieve. This has done it. ----- ### "Lone Working" — 4.0/5 > **Clare** | *24 October 2021* | Civic & Social Organization | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The software itself is easy to use and understand. Responsive Alert Calling Centre and a system to entrust the safety of our workers with when lone working. > > **Cons**: The one aspect to the device that would be useful (and only reason scored slightly lower on some of the ratings) is the ability for our front line staff to communicate with the call centre when going into a flat (resident) to note the address and to note how long. GPS is good but won't narrow down a flat within a block for example. > > The ease of set up was a dream which is down to Vatix and its people knowing the needs of its customers. Plus a great account manager \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] who was/is always at hand to help us and made the set up and transition so easy. Extremely helpful. In general - the whole customer service team seems very supportive and responsive. ----- ### "Great service, great product" — 5.0/5 > **Hope** | *21 October 2021* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The Vatix Protector is exactly what we need. As a charity our support workers are often out late at night and from a safeguarding point of view, I need to know that they are safe at all times. Even when I’m asleep. The Vatix gives us that peace of mind that someone is always available to send help, if necessary. Set up was easy and it was simple to explain how it worked. > > **Cons**: We have all found it difficult to know when the product is on or off because of the flashing lights. That’s the only confusing element. > > \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] helped us to set up with Vatix Protector. He was efficient and supportive and helped to simplify the process. We’re very happy with the product and the service and would highly recommend to others. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/231118/protector?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/231118/protector) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
