A mass notification system (MNS) is a platform that sends one-way messages to inform employees and the public of an emergency. It allows users to broadcast notifications to groups or individuals such as clients, citizens, employees, and government officials. This is done to keep everyone informed before/during/after the event of disasters. Mass notification system allows distributed contact data, language localization, robust analytics, and distributed contact data for contact data management and a globalized approach to optimize voice and SMS routing.
The global mass notification systems market is estimated to be valued at US$ 6,945.9 million in 2021 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 12.8% over the forecast period (2021-2028).

Key Takeaways of the Graph:
Market Dynamics- Restraints
Concerns regarding security are expected to restrain growth of the global mass notification systems market during the forecast period
There are several concerns regarding design, implementation, and secure communication. These issues include limited testing security to control panels, lack of in-built security, open ports on services and devices, exposure to various online threats since it is connected to the non-secure network, poor resistance to tampering, lack of adequate notification, etc. Furthermore, communication lines are open to various attacks such as record and replay, denial of service, and man-in-middle injection. Therefore, these factors are expected to restrain growth of the global mass notification systems market during the forecast period.
Lack of standardization is expected to hamper the global mass notification systems market growth over the forecast period
Several players offers multiple brands and versions of equipment, and integrating such systems to already installed legacy systems is challenging. Solution providers also offer proprietary software that cannot be easily integrated with other MNS products, which in turn creates limited opportunities for them. In order to provide seamless integration, the software must support various equipment; a process that can be cumbersome. Thus, these factors are expected to hinder the market growth over the forecast period.

Emergency management is a branch of mass notification systems, which deals with emergency management and monitoring. An emergency management system has many sub branches which include disaster management, security management and civil protection. These emergency management sub branches are there to assist public and private organizations in dealing with emergencies ranging from terrorist attacks to natural disasters. Public organizations like police departments, fire departments and other municipal departments get bulk of their operations and their budgeting power from federal government sources. The federal government also ensures that these emergency services are provided free of cost to all individuals, communities and organizations.
Emergency mass notification systems are designed for multiple use case scenarios. An emergency management system is a single channel communication platform that organizations and businesses may use to instantly alert workers in the event of a potential emergency. During an emergency, like a natural disaster, terrorist attack or cyber-attack, in which many people will lose their lives, this technology is used to instantly send out bulk notifications to all subscribers using different channels, like text message, email, telephone calls and others. This will ensure speedy communication and responses.
