We use PagerDuty to manage all our 24x7 alerting across our fleet of managed servers and inbound customer requests.
  • Good management of on-call schedules.
  • Overall feature set fits the need of a 24x7 operation within our organization.
PagerDuty works very well for 24x7 operations. It is still up to you to make sure your alerting is tuned and alerting on the right stuff.

Perfect up-time alert tool

We use PagerDuty across the whole organization to ensure that our software is running at all times. It's a critical tool for managing uptime and alerting on-call team members when our software may be experiencing issues.
  • Alerting on-call engineers about up-time issues for software.
  • Managing on-call users and escalation flows.
  • Integrate with any type of software product.
Cons
  • More features in the less expensive tiers, especially for small businesses.
PagerDuty is crucial for software that needs to be running all times in production.

We primarily use PagerDuty for on-call alerting. We have a number of monitoring platforms that are integrated with PagerDuty or send emails to escalation policies for various teams across the org. We are able to maintain a schedule of individuals in each team and we are able to escalate alerting should current on-call fail to pick up the page.
  • integrates well with the various applications we use
  • escalation chain flexibility - allows for stages of increased alerting
Cons
  • we don't use all the functionality offered by PagerDuty, no real need
  • not always easy to find a historical alert if you dont know the exact alert ID
It is very good at consolidating alerting and having a centralized location for handling all alerting across all teams. It gives good flexibility in terms of user functionality. The escalation process seems to be very mature is very configurable. It seems limited in its ability to do complex routing of alerts, if you are wanting to rule based alerting that would need to be a feature based on the application that is triggering it and not some feature in PagerDuty.

Tired of being woken up by unnecessary alerts? Look into PagerDuty to solve that for you!

We currently use PagerDuty for multiple teams. The software allows us to be notified of problems with our infrastructure. We use the Live Call Routing feature for after-hours support, so customers can always get a hold of a support agent if needed. We utilize PagerDuty's impressive integrations into Slack and Nagios to alert us when something goes wrong. This has improved our uptime dramatically since we first started using the product.
  • PagerDuty is very responsive when a problem is detected. We get an alert in Slack and in the PagerDuty mobile app almost immediately after the problem is detected. There's no delay.
  • The administration console/GUI on the PagerDuty website is very informative and allows for easy configuration of services.
  • Support from PagerDuty themselves has been outstanding. We had some issues first getting our Nagios instance to work with PagerDuty, but their support staff guided us through everything and got it up and going within a day.
Cons
  • While PagerDuty integrates with several different monitoring solutions, I'd like to see a deeper integration with Nagios. The solution they have now works fine, I'd just like to see more integration with the 2.
With PagerDuty, you can group all alerts for a particular event together, which makes it very nice for whoever is on-call, they are not flooded with alerts which can drive someone crazy! Also, if there's a major event, PagerDuty makes it easy to get "all hands on deck" and allows you to open a conference call and/or a Slack channel where everyone can come together to resolve the issue. If you have an after-hours support requirement, the Live Call Routing feature works particularly well.
