Instantly broadcast time-critical information at the push of a button

Push-to-talk (PTT) makes it simple to connect with your team anywhere, anytime. No need to set up a conference call or even dial a number: just push a button and talk, one-on-one or one-to-many. PTT is an all-in-one communication solution that removes the need to communicate over multiple apps. In addition to voice communication, PTT users can instantly share multimedia messages, voice messages and user location within the app.
Delivered over Canada’s largest LTE network1, PTT from Bell provides the reach you need with the reliability you can depend on. And our selection of PTT-enabled smartphones, rugged phones and accessories means your people always have the right tools for the job.

Transportation

Improve delivery times and route efficiency with the PTT Dispatch Console, which allows you to track and communicate with drivers in real time. Dispatch the closest driver for improved customer experience, keep detailed logs, and quickly assist drivers when they need assistance. And with one-touch talk, drivers can keep their eyes on the road, not their phones.

Construction

Reduce downtime by instantly collaborating with up to 3,000 users in preset talkgroups on the job site, or multiple job sites across the country. Use PTT by itself, or to collaborate with your existing LMR radio users. Plus, enhance worker safety by knowing who’s on-site with location and geo-fence alerts.

Hospitality

Improve guest satisfaction and operational efficiencies by communicating with all on-site team members with the push of a button, using dynamic area-based talkgroups. Instant connectivity helps you respond quickly to emergencies and keep things running smoothly.

Public works

Connect multiple departments, agencies and mobile workers on a single communication platform, allowing them to communicate instantly and efficiently. Simply manage staff throughout the city using the integrated dispatch console.

Public safety

While not intended as a primary voice communications tool for first responders, PTT can be beneficial in supporting public safety organizations. Voice interoperability between traditional Land Mobile Radio systems radios used by first responders and PTT users enables dispatchers and support teams to relay important information to other agencies.

Public safety and critical infrastructure organizations’ support teams can remotely perform user checks, track location or declare an emergency on behalf of PTT users in the field. Emergency dispatchers can share images of suspects with officers within a specific geo-location, augmenting voice descriptions.
