Not even the best competitor to pagerduty released in the last 72 hours. Absolutely luke warm, I doubt if they even have the big name customers they say they do. Any engineering team worth their weight realises that its not a drop-in solution to PD and barely solves any hard problems.

Introducing Rootly On-Call: A modern on-call solution built by incident experts.

CEO and co-founder of Rootly here - ask me anything about our on-call solution! Here's a bit about how we got here: We began this journey in early 2023 after hearing how frustrated you were with products like PagerDuty that were clunky, overpriced, and did nothing more than call you. Our teams have put in thousands of hours making sure we got it right.

One of the most challenging areas I am so proud we nailed is rock solid reliability. Building schedules, overrides, and escalation policies is not difficult. But making sure alerts get delivered successfully no matter what is.

We re-examined our infrastructure and invested heavily into being the only multi-cloud on-call solution on the market. Even in the very rare scenario of AWS with a 99.99% SLA going down, we still won’t. We’ll wake you up in the middle of the night no matter what (big thank you to our investors at Google here too)!

- Multi-cloud reliability and redundancy - AI-powered scheduling, configuration, and insights that are just intuitive - Sleek iOS and Android apps that you’ll want to be woken up by - Beautiful UI designed by incident experts for modern teams - Fair and simple pricing without a million hidden upsells - Migration in less than 10 minutes off any legacy on-call tool - Alert to response handoff all within Slack that just makes sense

A true end-to-end platform is here. Our customers have been running on Rootly On-Call already and loving it.
