When choosing a school safety software provider, you’ll discover several good companies out there. But they’re not all the same. Some platforms are robust and provide features just for schools. Others have limited features and are tailored more towards businesses and individuals.

"We've been 100% pleased with Raptor, not only the product but also the service we get. Anytime I've had a question, anytime we've needed additional training, Raptor has essentially been a phone call away."
Greg Wallace, Supervisor of Safety & Mental Health, Johnson City Schools, TN
“Simultaneous communications and the ability to give multiple incident leaders updated status reports in an instant — the ability to monitor status without a lot of confusing chatter — plus the accountability: we knew where resources were needed, and the [Raptor] app freed personnel to be shifted appropriately.”
Christopher Parks, School Resource Officer, Brighton High School, MI
“One of the great things about Raptor is that it's not just a cookie cutter product that they put into your schools. Between their customer service and the product itself, it's very customizable.”
Wanda Absher, District Safe Schools Coordinator, Pulaski County Schools, KY
“What I like most from it [Raptor], is the user friendliness of it, not only from the teacher standpoint, but also as a management issue and to be able to keep track of the district, whether it be drills or accountability. When we do have an emergency, being able to see it live and making sure that I know that all of our students are safe.”
Andrew Whitfield, Chief of Police, Chapel Hill ISD, TX
