A solution to automate incident response on Slack, that lets users handoff alerts from PagerDuty and automatically create incidents without ever leaving Slack. Its relevant runbooks and metadata (deploy events) shortcut resolution times.
I've used ICM in the past which has been a very Microsoft product with everything thrown into a blender. So, PD implementation is a breath of fresh air with focused pages to achieve the end goal. If the goal is to collaborate on issues across the organization, PD might not be the best solution but within specific teams, PD excels at it.
Rootly is great for both remote companies and in-person, but especially well suited for remote. There is such a wide variety of functionalities that Rootly can offer, both internally for your company and externally for your customers. Rootly streamlines and centralizes a lot of data you may be keeping in separate spaces which could be excluding some memebers from being in the loop and adds additional time in your day tracking and organization information. Rootly makes everything real-time for our company through the integrations
When getting a phone call, PagerDuty doesn't seem to allow acknowledgments of alerts through the phone, which it says it does. I constantly receive a message that it was updated by another person - when in reality, it wasn't.
Smarter notifications. If an alert was snoozed for a time, when it comes back, it sends out another alert. It should, I think, send a message asking if the alert is still an issue and give the option to close.
As I've been using this app for the last 3 years, I would like to see a few additions, like exposing the "create slack channel" option from the mobile app, rather than just from the PD website from the specific incident
great usability, bit of a learning curve with the product because there is so much information to digest and Rootly gives you lots of different angles and preferences for how you would like to see it displayed. For those with high tech skills its much easier but for those who are less tech savvy it can be overwhelming
PagerDuty is reliable and easy to set up. It gives an effective way to notify the team about critical incidents which results in a faster turnaround time on issues. users can customize their alerts rules based on their preferences. Overall it's effective and easy to use which adds great business value.
There were more features and more ways to contact the provider. Ring Central would send out a call. I don't remember sending an email or text when I was paged. It seemed it was only an app on my phone and not located on my computer, where I could access it when I was working on the computer.
