Yes, Triton ULTRA integrates with Google Chat, on-prem or through Triton Cloud. Depending on how your organization runs things, there's a path that fits without forcing your team to adopt new software.
That matters because most schools and organizations already run their daily operations out of Google Workspace. Instead of adding another app to check, a Triton event shows up right in a space your team already has open - and because it's a real chat space, not just a notification feed, your team can actually talk through it: who's responding, what was found, and how it got resolved, all in one thread tied to the event.
Google Chat (On-Prem)
The fit: This is the most direct path - no Triton Cloud account required. Google Chat spaces can be assigned an email address, and the Triton ULTRA sensor has a built-in SMTP feature that sends alerts straight to that address.
Alert workflow: Each event posts directly into the space as a message, giving your team a running, timestamped log of everything a sensor has detected - and a place to discuss it right where the alert lives, without switching to a separate security dashboard first.
Triton Cloud + Google Chat
The fit: This path uses Triton Cloud's built-in alerting system instead of configuring SMTP on every sensor - you add the Google Chat space's email as a contact once, then assign it to whichever alert rules you want.
Alert workflow: Triton Cloud emails the alert to the Google Chat space the moment an event fires, using Text-Based Email formatting so it reads cleanly in chat. You can copy the same alert rule across every sensor in a few clicks, so scaling to a whole building or campus doesn't mean repeating setup device by device.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why send alerts to a chat space instead of just email or a dashboard?
Because a space is a place people already are, and it supports a conversation - not just a notification. When an event fires, your team can respond in the same thread: who's checking it out, what they found, and how it was resolved, creating a running record of both the alert and the response.
What's the difference between the on-prem and Triton Cloud setup?
On-prem sends alerts directly from the sensor's built-in email feature - no Triton Cloud account needed. Through Triton Cloud, you set up the space's email as a contact once and assign it to alert rules, which makes it easier to manage and scale across many sensors at once.
Can I control which events get sent to Google Chat?
Yes. Each event type - Vape, THC, Aggression, Tamper, and more - has its own setting, so you choose exactly which alerts land in the space.
