Swisscom

Product development of an alarm solution for Swisscom

Swisscom sought a new solution for business customers aiming to professionalize their alarm processes for emergency and crisis management. With eAlarm crisis, adesso Schweiz developed a stable, high-performance, and scalable solution that supports predefined alert scenarios, enables rapid response in emergencies, and helps manage crises more efficiently.


Challenge

In emergency and crisis management, every second counts – hence the solution must alert users quickly, securely, and in a targeted manner. The application should be intuitive to use on both web and mobile devices.

Different customer requirements should be flexibly accommodated through simple configuration options.

Maximum compatibility is also expected: the solution should function independently and be seamlessly integrated into existing systems.

Solution

To meet the high demands for security, availability, and user-friendliness, adesso Schweiz developed eAlarm crisis, a powerful application. The solution is based on modern cloud-native architecture and guarantees high availability and maximum reliability thanks to 24/7 operation.

An eight-person team of specialists completed the project using an agile approach. Close coordination with the customer enabled the application to be implemented flexibly and iteratively.
