A required tool for a 24/7 operations/support team
What do you like best about the product?
Probably the most important third party tool we leverage.
Handles real issues with ease, sometimes making us forget how critical of a service it is.
The flow of events is crystal clear allowing users of the service to have no issues with understanding what is expected of them (acknowledge, triage, resolve).
Working on a team that supports all backend engineering for a major application that is used by millions of users can be stressful, but we have peace of mind knowing PagerDuty is always resilient and alerting when we need it to.
Having rules in place to auto-resolve issues is crucial.
Snoozing is vital to when there is an issue that does not have a resolution pending.
Definitely how simple it is to get users set up and embedded into the team/schedule/escalation policy.
The simplicity of integrating with AWS, NewRelic, Slack which are all important applications/services we leverage every day.
The analytics reports are so valuable and simple to export.

What do you dislike about the product?
The fact that the PagerDuty Service features can't be intertwined with the Escalation Policy. Just feels like an unnecessary extra configuration.
I wish the mobile app was a little clearer in showing incidents that are high urgency, perhaps bolder font or a label.
The analytics section is a bit clunky and there could be a lot of grooming there to clean up unnecessary data that I don't think there is a valid use case for.
The analytics section sometimes fails to export or does not filter appropriately.
It would be cool if the analytics report could contain graphs or visuals.
I wish the resolution notes had more built around that feature. It would be cool if they went to a centralized place and could be collated.
Sometimes its hard to find certain features or settings, the most recent redesign makes some things hidden that weren't prior.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ensures team cohesion and allows everyone to be in the know of status with a few simple clicks of a button.
We are able to work in a unified manner across 3 timezones and over 10 different backend engineering teams.
Responding to incidents more effectively and efficiently.
Reducing redundant areas of troubleshooting, centralizing our flow of AWS -> PagerDuty -> Slack

PagerDuty Helps Keep Our Systems Going
What do you like best about the product?
PagerDuty is highly customizable and allows you to specify how you want to receive notification. It allows you to set up personal escalation policies. For example, I have it set to first give me a push notification, then text, then phone call. I like how easy it is to integration with different software. Currently we have a few different services connected that can trigger alerts. The price is also really reasonable.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can be a little complicated to learn overall but the complexity allows for more configurability. I wouldn't simplify it, but instead work on ways to help train the user within the app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Pagerduty is integrated with out monitoring system. All mission critical alerts that need immediate attention are sent to pagerduty. We also have escalation policies set up so that if the main on-call doesn't respond in time, the next individual will get a notification.

What do you dislike about the product?
They sometimes change the UI and make it less intuitive to use. Not a deal-breaker and they did add back the option to use the old UI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a solution for managing on-call schedules and single notification/aggregation across a few alarm systems we have.
Using PagerDuty allowed us to integrate with the services with very little engineering investment and maintenance.

A must have tool
What do you like best about the product?
PagerDuty has a really simple interface and does its job in an impeccable way. It send alerts via Phone calls, texts, emails or push notifications and can be integrated with many third party tools. We use it mainly with DataDog and AWS, setup was done in minutes and maintenance is practically zero. It's simple enough to be used by non technical people as well. Their Android app is also quite simple and easy to use and doesn't seem to consume a lot of battery and that was a strict requirement for me. Adding a new device/removing a device or add/remove/change notifications is really simple and takes just few minutes. All notifications can be tested to ensure setup is done correctly, to avoid last minute surprises. I've been a PagerDuty user for more than six years and it never let us down, so they managed to make their infrastructure really reliable, as it should be.
What do you dislike about the product?
the only negative experience I had with PagerDuty was when they broken volume override in their Android app for my Samsung S10e. Issue was resolved relatively quickly, but still it was unpleasant to discover I missed some alerts cause of a bug in their app. Anyway, they fixed it and I haven't had any other negative experience with them
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
PagerDuty helped us organizing our on-call schedule and it ensures none of the alerts gets unnoticed. We needed a simple and inexpensive tool to achieve that and PagerDuty completely matched our requirements
Recommendations to others considering the product:
if you're looking for a reliable, inexpensive and simple alerting tool, then PagerDuty is what you're looking for
