Pagerduty review
What do you like best about the product?
The reduction of false positives. In the past alerting would wake we up when no action was required.
What do you dislike about the product?
Only minor issues to report. The override scheduling can be a confusing experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We now have standard alerting from multiple monitoring services worldwide. Also automatic scheduling of all call personnel.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Pagerduty took multiple alerting systems and standardized them for all of our business units making it much simpler to support.
Very good alerting platform
What do you like best about the product?
Pager duty has some nice quality of life features. Sometimes you need someone to cover because life happens. PagerDuty make overrides easy for those moments when you cant be on call during your scheduled shift.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not being able to snooze an alert more than 24 hours
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Alerting for critical production processes
It Just Works
What do you like best about the product?
I never have to worry if I will get notified when there is an issue.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were more scheduled escalation policies in the Lite version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When we have a production infrastructure issue, We rely on PagerDuty to let us know. One huge benefit is the Analytics, i can easier justify my time and the time that it takes to complete an incident.
Reliable, easy to use service
What do you like best about the product?
I really like three things. First is the ability to set up on-call schedules that will automatically call the appropriate person. I also like the automatic escalation, in case a call gets missed. Finally, I like that it works on standard cell phones, no need to have separate paging devices.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have any dislikes. I am much happier with PagerDuty that I was with my old paging company.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Prior to using PagerDuty we would miss support calls from time-to-time. Since we started using PagerDuty we have not missed a single support call in the 6 years we have used PagerDuty.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I have found PagerDuty to be very reliable. We have not missed a service call since we started using PagerDuty.
Great tool for getting alerted of potential problems with your applications in production.
What do you like best about the product?
It's generally very easy to integrate with whatever monitoring tool you're using in applications running live in production. It's also very convenient how you can setup on-call schedules for the members in your team, with corresponding escalation policies.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't really have much downsides to share, so far the experience has been generally positive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In our engineering team we use PagerDuty to get alerted of potential problems in applications running live in production. We have integrations with multiple monitoring tools like Sentry, TrackJS, DataDog, among others.
Highly recommend PagerDuty
What do you like best about the product?
PagerDuty does an excellent job at notifying us anytime our customers open emergency requests. Rotation schedules and notification alerts are easy to configure and send enough information to support and respond to our customers from any platform. We have never experienced any issues or downtime with their service and have been using them for 10+ years.
What do you dislike about the product?
Haven't really experienced anything negative.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use PagerDuty to alert our on-call team of any emergency requests opened by our customers, this allows us to provide support 24/7.
PagerDuty just WORKS!
What do you like best about the product?
PagerDuty is easy to set up, reliable, and expandable.
What do you dislike about the product?
Had some trouble overriding schedules at first. It wasn't as intuitive as I would have liked, but a few tries and now it's no big deal.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have at least 4 teams that need to be on call and rotate the on-call duty weekly. We used to have a pager (lame) and PagerDuty makes it super easy to put people in and out of the rotation. We barely ever even think about it anymore. It just works.
Pagerduty is a critical tool for us
What do you like best about the product?
The capability to integrate with many third party tools such as Slack, Icinga, Grafana, Anodot and many others. This allows us to connect and alert in a timely manner when issues appear
What do you dislike about the product?
For the integration keys, seem to need to be attached to an existing user, so actions with that token will be done in name of that user, this is good but not perfect for cases when you need to build bots or similar and not attached directly to an user.
Also, I would like a way to search for incident without having to use the API, that would make our lives much easier

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For SRE alerting, PagerDuty is critical, it allows us to make escalation for specific teams and set up comprehensible on call hours for our engineers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely give it a try, if you are managing many resources and production is dead critical for you you definitely should consider
Reliable and easy to integrate
What do you like best about the product?
Integrating PD with in-house monitoring systems is really easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't a time-zone per user such that I can schedule someone for on-call based on times in their timezone. I have to schedule them based on times for my user's timezone.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Multi-tiered scheduling for multiple timezones. It's allowed my teams to get more rest.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Look into what it will take to integrate your monitoring solution with PD's alerting. I think you'll find it almost trivial.
We used PD for last 8 years, even before IBM accuired Kenexa and it made our DBA life easier.
What do you like best about the product?
The ability for DBAs to split 24 hours coverage between three geographycal locations
The ability to have integrations with Slack and email
The ability to involve differnt teams during the troubleshooting of an incident

What do you dislike about the product?
Mobile version lucks on ability of scheduling maintenance mode
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have alerts from SQL Servers and SQL Diagnostic Manager coming through PD
Very easy to follow the alert. Alerts are always fired on time giving the opportunity to dress an issue
