Traditional email alerts are becoming obsolete. In an age where we're constantly connected via messaging apps, WhatsApp alerts represent the future of incident notification.
Why WhatsApp? Because that's where people actually check messages. Email inboxes are cluttered, notifications are muted, and important alerts get lost. WhatsApp messages, on the other hand, are read within minutes.
Studies show that:
• Email alerts have an average response time of 47 minutes
• WhatsApp alerts have an average response time of 2 minutes
• 95% of WhatsApp messages are read within 3 minutes
• Only 21% of work emails are read within an hour
WhatsApp alerts also enable better collaboration. You can forward alerts to team members, create group chats for incident response, and even integrate with automation tools.
