Why Do You Need Sharepoint Alerts and Reminders Web Part?

SharePoint alerts and notifications are essential features that allow users to work on their tasks and always be on schedule. Though alerts in SharePoint are flexible, they often require additional adjustment and detailed customization. SharePoint reminder web part provides users with this additional adjustment tool. Now, you can create your own SharePoint alert in an instant and allow it to be sent to a specific user or a group of SharePoint users. An important feature of SharePoint Alerts and reminder Web Part is the ability to create your own SharePoint alerts, using Rich Text format.

You can also define the frequency of SharePoint alerts by simply choosing one of these options: send alert immediately, hourly, daily, or weekly. SharePoint alerts can also be sent within a specified timetable (i.e., send email or sms alert only within business hours — from 8 AM to 5 PM). Also, all SharePoint alerts can be assembled into a single email, instead of being sent in several email messages.

Finally, SharePoint Alerts and Reminders web part allows to send SharePoint alerts and notifications not only as e-mail alerts, but also as SMS alerts or via instant messengers, like Jabber or Miranda.

Another feature of SharePoint reminder web part is the Custom Filtering System. This allows users to create complex terms and conditions for sending SharePoint alerts. An example would be for you to receive SharePoint notifications when your task is complete or the percentage of completion is over 90%.

The option of Custom Templates makes it possible to create a body of the SharePoint Alert message within seconds. Also, SharePoint Alerts and Reminders Message Templates enable users to use different tags in the HTML-based template body. The tags are replaced with the Alert List column fields and other elements, while the message is being drafted.

Pricey but useful. Sharepoint alert web part works perfectly, enhancing our alert management system. It allows for creating a custom schedule for sending reminders, sending sharepoint alerts to external email addresses, and merging alert triggers in one message to avoid spamming your team. So we are always on a schedule!

I never miss an important event anymore! Virto sharepoint custom alerts tool is an excellent solution for sending reminders through multiple channels and includes brief notifications. Detailed message customization features are great! It allowed me to build a flexible notification system by defining the frequency of alerts, setting timetables, and even delivering reminders in SMS alerts or via instant messengers, like Jabber or Miranda! I hadn't thought I would need it, but now I can't imagine working in our company without these features! My recommendation.

That is a perfect tool with an intuitive and user-friendly interface. It’s the best sharepoint reminder web part I found. And I've tried many! In fact, it has even more functionality than I needed, for example, sending alerts in emails, sms, or Clickatell service, fast and easy. It definitely deserves 5 stars. I can highly recommend this product.

I have been using the Virto sharepoint alert web part for almost 2 years, and I am happy with it. It has a simple but agile UI that allows creating SharePoint alerts and custom email templates quickly and easily. And Custom Filtering System makes it the best sharepoint custom alerts tool!

It's excellent how flexible this sharepoint reminder web part is. Users can schedule alerts anytime they could possibly need and customize it to fit custom needs. This tool for sending reminders in sharepoint is a must-have for large and small organizations.
