Genasys Inc. (NASDAQ: GNSS), the global leader in critical communications systems and solutions that help keep people safe, today announced a new multi-year Zonehaven evacuation management software-as-a-service (SaaS) contract with San Diego County, California.
"San Diego joins Riverside County, Marin County, Alameda County, and other California jurisdictions deploying the full Genasys Protect platform to deliver multichannel public safety alerts, evacuation notifications, and life safety information to residents and visitors," said Richard Danforth, Chief Executive Officer, Genasys, Inc. "Genasys Protect is the first and only unified platform that provides comprehensive emergency management and multichannel communications solutions before, during, and after disasters and other critical events.

"The county has also installed Genasys outdoor mass notification systems at several popular beaches to broadcast swimmer and beachgoer safety information. First responders, emergency management officials, and millions of county residents and visitors will now have access to our platform’s critical communications capabilities and resources."
Charlie Crocker, Senior Vice President of SaaS Products, Genasys Inc. said, "Time is of the essence during multi-hazard crises.
