Splunk On-Call
Score6 out of 10
N/A
Formerly known as VictorOps, Splunk On-Call is an incident response system for developers, devops and operations teams that helps reduce outage time.
I worked at one company that used VictorOps (now Splunk On-Call) and it was quite similar to PagerDuty. VictorOps had a smaller customer base and fewer integrations, so there was less information on the Internet about how to use it effectively, and I don't think its API was as …

Chose PagerDuty
When compared to VictorOps and OpsGenie, PagerDuty is clearly the best of the breed. It provides a more polished UI, more integrations, and more features than the others, but it's priced at a premium. Smaller teams will probably get more value out of another alternative that …

When we selected PagerDuty, we evaluated a few other solutions including Moogsoft, BigPanda, VictorOps and Splunk Enterprise. We decided on PagerDuty specifically for the automated on-call escalation capabilities. At the time when we subscribed to PagerDuty, event management …

VictorOps was ok. PagerDuty allowed more flexibility in scheduling from what I recall. I wasn't involved with the decision making but in our testing VictorOps wasn't as comfortable to use as PagerDuty.

We evaluated VictorOps but were completely satisfied with PD so we retained it even though VictorOps was less expensive at the time.

Chose PagerDuty
VictorOps is similar to PagerDuty, but was much more difficult to setup and get working with the Nagios system I was supporting. I also did not like the mobile app for VictorOps, it was too convoluted and hard to figure out what alert was being sent to the on-call person. I …

I think PagerDuty is a good product. I have used VictorOps before and found the interface to be too cumbersome and tedious to set up. They have a rich interface with many great integrations, but sometimes less is more, and I have found this to be the case with Pager Duty. They …

While more costly than the competitors, PagerDuty has more functionality and is the better tool. There are more integrations, the UI is cleaner, and there are more features and options.

Both the above products (although they could do more, such as alert filtering), were too bulky and cumbersome. Building simple alerts and integrations were time-consuming and more hassle then they should have been. Escalation policies were also difficult and cumbersome to set …

Compared to the companies listed above, PagerDuty was always the stronger contender combined with Datadog. Though now the playing field may have changed since we last did any serious evaluation. PagerDuty has no downtime and "just works". That last phrase is what makes it …

Chose Splunk On-Call
We really liked PagerDuty but it got too expensive for us. In my opinion, PagerDuty has a nicer UI/UX and iPhone app as it's done well and has some fun associated with it. However, the pricing model became too expensive for the features we needed. VictorOps is one of several …

To be sincere, PagerDuty is a powerful, intelligent, and dependable on-call and incident management tool that provides amazing solutions to our company. Therefore, if someone is looking for reliability and accuracy in incident management, I will not hesitate to recommend PagerDuty. It is easy to use, and it will give you value for money.
I recommend Splunk on-call is more suited where there are high incident queues; multiple teams need to be involved in handling a P1 severity issue. Multiple levels of escalation are needed environment where automated action is required. I recommend the solution for large-scale & medium-scale business units. For small-scale business units, I see the functional value is less.

The UI is more complex than I would like. Part of the challenge is that most users use PagerDuty infrequently; I don't remember how I changed a policy last time. Another part of the challenge is that some users expect alerting to be a trivial feature, and are reluctant to invest any time in reading the documentation.

PagerDuty is reliable and easy to set up. It gives an effective way to notify the team about critical incidents which results in a faster turnaround time on issues. users can customize their alerts rules based on their preferences. Overall it's effective and easy to use which adds great business value.

VictorOps support has proven excellent for us. Because it is such a widely used tool, there is a lot of documentation on usage, and a large community of users to lean on. Also, many engineers have had experience working with VictorOps already, and the tool is so easy to setup / manage that much support isn't really necessary.

OpsGenie was useful, mainly for teams already using Atlassian tools, and xMatters was good for handling team communication during incidents, but PagerDuty felt more complete for managing the full incident process in one place. We went with PagerDuty because it manages alerts, escalations, and on-call duties in a more organized and dependable way, which fits better with how our teams work daily.
Splunk On-Call integrates better with our Splunk Cybersecurity and Reporting products due to the same family tree of the same eco system. We were previously using built-in on-call from individual applications and while adequate, they were difficult to manage and support SLA varied greatly across different applications. In addition we also used xMatters which did not integrate well with SAP products nor Citrix products so we were still using more than a single on-call product which was solved by implementing Splunk On-Call
