Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What counts as one Single User License for billing?
One Single User License covers one named user account with access to First Alert. Billing scales by the number of licenses you buy. Each additional person needing alerts requires their own license. Admin tools let you manage users and locations across the licenses you hold.
How does cost change when we add more team members?
Cost scales linearly with license count. Each new user needs a Single User License added to your contract. There are no separate tiers, instance sizes, or usage add-ons on this listing, so your bill grows by one license fee per added person.
What does the Single User License include for a public sector team?
The license delivers real-time breaking news alerts on emergencies and high-impact events. It supports use cases like emergency management, law enforcement, force protection, and executive awareness. Features include location-based alert filtering and user and location management for administrators.

Proactive Risk Monitoring, Minor Notification Overload

Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate how Dataminr allows me to monitor even minor local disturbances that could compromise my team's health or safety, especially as an operation leader with teams in multiple locations across India. It has significantly enabled a shift in our security policy from reactive salvage operations to proactive risk prevention steps, which is crucial for staying ahead of potential threats. I find it faster at detecting potential risk situations compared to other products like Feedly, which is vital for managing safety and productivity. Furthermore, Dataminr plays an essential role in keeping my team members safe by alerting me to events that might disrupt productivity or employee safety. This proactive approach in monitoring enhances our preparedness and response to unforeseen events.
What do you dislike about the product?
I sometimes experience information overload with Dataminr, as there are too many notifications that need to be filtered out. Additionally, I find that the customization options could be more intuitive, which would enhance my ability to tailor the platform to my specific needs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Dataminr helps me monitor threats and risks, keeping my team safe by proactively preventing disruptions and ensuring awareness of events affecting productivity and safety.

Dataminr for an expanded view of impacts and potential impacts
Reviewed on Apr 05, 2024
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
Using Dataminr has really helped us see incidents around the world and help increase the speed in which we measure direct or indirect impact. The new Real-Time Intelligence that is still in Beta has been super helpful in consolidating information right at the top of an event, which saves a lot of time in collecting data and combining it for distribution. Its able to add information as new event updates come in and has been incredibly helpful - particularily during the recent bridge collapse in Baltimore. Event history to help inform and build patterns for planning. Developing feeds to support our business partners is really easy and makes for a helpful way to develop bespoke monitoring. The team that supports our account has been great at helping us customize alerts to cut down on noise and build advanced alerts for custom monitoring. The App is great as well as it provides me with almost all of the info I need near me as well as what could impact the business (through our feeds).
What do you dislike about the product?
Setting up Dataminr requires some time committment from the end user to really customize it. If you don't dedicate this time, you will not have a great experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Dataminr helps with awareness internationally as well as providing information that may get reported up through silos instead of directly to the Crisis management team. This speeds up the response we can put together as an enterprise, so one business is not trying to solution a problem while the information is going from email to email or channel to channel.
