    Setting up the Grafana OnCall configuration is from the UI is a little bit complex, you need to create an integration, from there an escalation chain ann after that you need to change the template for the notificaion. Also the documentation is not entirely clear, particularly the section on provisioning with Terraform, because production stack is provisioned with infra structure as code.

    Incident response is well suited to OpsGenie, and this is where it really shines—whether it's an outage, a security incident, or similar. My experience is mostly with security, and it offers a great audit trail. It minimises the need to cut and paste from different platforms when creating reports and ensures that what was said and what was done (along with any evidence) is persisted and reflected in the incident detail.

    • OpsGenie New Jira design has made it difficult for those not familiar with that style.
    • OpsGenie could benefit from nested escalation flows for team schedules. Creating a product alert that uses and Tech Schedule as well as an Incident Manager Schedule that already exists would create less overhead and ease management.

    setting up the Grafana OnCall functionality is complex but if you setup this and you know how to setup then the rest is easy. IAC is provided with terraform The UI for the alert groups shows the alerts in one view and from there you can go to the relevant alert trigger to solve the problems.

    In general terms OpsGenie is a well done tool for solving the alert incident management, the usability is super ok during the configuration and during the alert. The main opportunity I found is the reporting and analytics section which is a little difficult to understand at a first sight and the refresh is not automatic, some little frictions but frictions at all

    Alternatives Considered

    Unlike Grafana OnCall tool Splunk On-Call solution looks more complicated and noticeably inferior in the visualization of the information presented (UI is not user friendly). Alerts re-route process looks totally illogical and you need some time to get with it. However Splunk On-Call looks more featurable out-of-box and has iOS and Android apps while Grafana OnCall provides a general dashboard apps only.

    We also looked at PagerDuty but decided to go with OpsGenie as it had more features on the plan we needed compared to PagerDuty which would have required us to spend a lot more for what we felt were non-premium features. Everything felt like an add-on - automation for an additional $20 a user per month seemed like a lot on top of the base plan

    • Helped us track bugs and issues that came up during product launch periods which reduced overhead that normally came with needing to manually contact the right team members
    • Prevented last minute breaking issues from falling through the cracks, decreased time to fix by automatically alerting the team members and allowing the product and project teams to easily see what active alerts are in progress
