acknowledging the call so that next person on call don't need to wake up unless first person on call wont life the call
What do you dislike about the product?
once in a while missing call when job fails
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we don't need person awake whole night to check if jobs are running on time or if anything failed. Once we get call when job fails that will allow for on call person to take rest till he /she gets call
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure calls wont be missed once in a while

PagerDuty review

  • February 26, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The instant nature of it and the different channels I can get my notifications on.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to get the push notification before the phone call
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We monitor our apps and have different schedules and escalations tiers. This has made the response faster and more reliable
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Anyone with critical running software should at least consider the idea of implementing pagerduty. It's ease of mind when not needed and really effective when needed.

Amazingly useful tool to handle emergency broadcasts

  • February 26, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Pagerduty allows you to divide people into separate groups, so that if the severity incident is something related to a specific group, it is not necessary to trigger it for everyone. It also allows for escalation and "on-call" duties per week - this is extremely useful, as nowadays our helpdesk team does not even need to call us personally, since Pagerduty handles everything on its own and always knows who's on call.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't think this is entirely related to Pager Duty in itself, but to our own current infrastructure. The alert emails seem to be sent out to everyone (included the pager duty account, which triggers pager duty in itself). Thus, any subsequent email in the email chain may end up creating a different alert for pager duty.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our company provides a high availability solution for our customer. Pager Duty allows us to get all necessary hands as quickly as possible whenever an issue arises. This has also leveraged our helpdesk team's need to call development, DBA, etc, on their own, as they may sometimes not know entirely who's on call. Triggering an alert on pager duty is more than enough.

As a member of the dev group, if you get an alert and you are on call but not available, it is easy to escalate to the next dev on the line - without having to personally call them.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Set everything up correctly from the start! Consider the type of alerts you need. For myself, it is extremely useful to set ALL alerts (SMS, Calls, Email), as it may be easier for me to look at my phone if everything's going haywire.

What do you like best about the product?
It has helped us poke holes in our pipeline, finding places where we have needed to bulk up our code and discuss issues as a team.
What do you dislike about the product?
Level of control when it comes to notifications was a bit difficult, especially in congruence with our airflow processes, but it was figured out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our pipeline serves our app, so it is important that our processes do not fail. The problem it solved was raising good points of discussion and making accountability organized.
