What is Buzz?

When communicating with other people on Feishu, there may be some urgent situations where you need someone to read your messages as soon as they can, which is why we created Buzz. Buzz can be delivered in 3 different ways - in-app alerts, SMS, or phone calls alerts. It allows you to send an urgent notification to someone.
