What is the difference between Mitigator and EverSafe?
Mitigator business continuity software is used to build and manage an organizations business continuity program, where as EverSafe is an on-line collaborative used for standardizing, communicating, and sharing emergency management information.
Why should I use EverGreen’s Mitigator business continuity planning software instead of the templates available on the web?
The answer is simple, templates are OK for very small organizations where there are a few people, little IT infrastructure, testing is frequent and there is minimal management support for the business continuity program. If your organization is larger than 50 to 100 people and a couple of small business units, then you should consider using Mitigator. Larger organizations add complexity and require standardization, coordination, and interdependency linkages between business units and their supporting IT infrastructure. Mitigator is an intelligent database driven system for defining the integration of organizations, personnel, assets, applications, and many other relationships. Access to this information is critical during a crisis, as well as the clear delineation of information to minimize delays. Mitigator is the business continuity solution of choice for those seeking a replacement of their outdated software or business continuity templates and you need to take your BCM program to the next level.
