We truly believe that RapidProtect is a very useful application for everyday use as it removes a major worry, i.e., safety of your family members, from your mind," said Dr. B. Kumar, COO of Rapidsoft Systems, Inc.

"We are proud of RapidProtect because it has some great features that are being made available for the first time on any smart phones.  This is just the beginning as we are working on a number of enhancements that will be added in the future release of the application." further added Dr. Kumar.

Commenting on the development,  Mr. Gurbinder Mavi,  VP of Sales and Marketing for Rapidsoft Systems said, "We are excited to launch RapidProtect.  It took us some time to develop the application, but we are very happy with the end results and appreciation that our application has received from the users. I am confident that parents will find it a very useful application to track where their children or elderly family members are and if they are safe or not. I am confident that savvy users will like RapidProtect as it is far superior to other family safety applications available in the market.  None of them have integrated weather related features.  Weather alerts alone can save lives during natural disasters like Hurricane Irene.
