It was very good to use in small scale projects. Considering the high end projects with many instances and multi-platform architectures, it is better to test before the application is deployed. I think few of the questions can be general - who are the system users and what size is the application focussing on? How much resources are required? Will the application require any additional services?

The best solution for OnPage is a small company with a small On-Call Team. The reason for this is because of how many it can trigger in a 30-minute time span. It's really good with us IT people as we understand the urgency of the call and we can react with the ticket. This gives the end-user peace of mind. This product would not be good for a large-scale company. It would not scale well for thousands of users.

Cons
Discontinued Products
  • Though it is good and easy for developers, it lacks operational activities and monitoring tools.
  • It is easy to deploy WAR on AppFog with its console but sometimes it can lack on the performance and feasibility.

  • Not really a "downside": because it works so well, any details we haven't documented from our initial setup are probably lost. It's been almost four years since our initial configuration, and I can no longer easily navigate the OnPage site because I literally haven't logged in since the initial implementation.

Primarily because it used to have a good free tier earlier, which it does not anymore. It's simple, and things are available to use. Compared to it's competitors, it does has less features, but that kind of acts in its favor. That adds to the simplicity, and ease of use for a new user.

OnPage is the first we chose and would not change that. The ability to link to our CSM, RMM, and technicians on the road has made this the best solution. Our team is able to use the current setup to make custom alerts based on the ticket details. This allows for all of our future needs to be covered.

  • Eliminated the concern that on-call personnel were not notified of an issue at all or on a timely basis
  • The reasonable cost, ease of use and reliability reassured management that any issues arising would be handled quickly
  • Users disliked carrying the bulky, unreliable and battery operated pagers. Today all users carry cell phones and can easily install and manage OnPage software

OnPage Screenshots

Screenshot of where to deliver high-priority alerts to the on-call staff through the OnPage app. This mobilizes teams on critical issues through secure messaging. The persistent, alert-until-read technology ensures that alerts are never missed.Screenshot of the interface to create and manage multiple on-call schedules for distributed teams. Schedule creation can be done by employees through OnPage’s fail-safe scheduler while ensuring continuous, error-free coverage.Screenshot of how to extend OnPage's Incident Alert Management capabilities to ITSM solution providers such as ServiceNow, ConnectWise, Jira and Autotask to synchronize messages, notes, and actions along the incident lifecycle, driving seamless incident management.Screenshot of a bi-directional integration with Slack and MS Teams, allowing users to initiate and manage critical alerts/pages from within their Slack instance. Elevate critical notifications from Slack into loud, audible push notifications on the phone app, distributing them to the right on-call staff. The integration allows responders to send, receive, and respond to critical alerts without leaving their familiar workspace.Screenshot of the analytics that offer real-time visibility into the incident resolution progress and response times. After an incident is resolved, detailed reports are generated that uncover critical insights and identify gaps in incident response for process improvements.Screenshot of OnPage’s centralized contact management system, which provides a centralized directory to manage all the enterprise contacts and their privileges, on-call schedules, communication workflows and escalation policies, and critical messages. Platform administrators can also mobilize teams using the two-way dispatcher to accelerate incident resolution.
