Find out what your peers are saying about ServiceNow, Atlassian, BMC and others in Help Desk Software."The solution is easy to use and has a user-friendly interface"
"The main feature for us is incident management, as it assists me in knowing my assignments, because we have group assignments. When we go to the group assignment they can assign it to me there."
"The solution's installation depends on its customization. It is easy."
"It is easy to set up."
"Overall, the platform, in its abilities, is really powerful, especially now with AI as a part of hyper-automation."
"The solution's technical support is excellent. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"Primarily, I believe the focus lies on discovery, workflow configuration, and automation."
"This is an excellent alternative to ServiceNow for smaller companies."
"The inbound integrations that PagerDuty provides with most of the DevOps tools are valuable."
"The SMS pages and the mobile application are pretty much the top two features."
"The most valuable features of PagerDuty are customization, access, policies, and different rules regarding the path of escalation. Additionally, it's easy to use and create overrides. For example, if you all are on a call for one week each, but somebody wants to go on PTO, the team needs to swap shifts in PagerDuty. This is easy to do by creating overrides to switch up the set schedules. It's very user-friendly in that aspect. It works well for monitoring and alerting."
"The initial setup is a simple process."
"A cool feature is that it helps us to understand the flow of the alert. If the alert was coming to the current on-call and he didn't catch the call or didn't notice it for any reason, it starts being escalated automatically, according to the escalation schedule, or to other teammates. You can see the flow very easily on your phone or via the website, if you want to do a post-mortem."
"Notification is the most valuable feature."
"The product has valuable on-call scheduling, escalation, and incident workflow management features."
"PagerDuty let us set up rosters based on our shifts. We could assign a hierarchy for how the calls should be escalated and the number of times the call will be transferred between people before it is answered. It makes it easy to access an agent via mobile phone."
"Perhaps one area that could see enhancement is at the hardware level, particularly regarding endpoint control."
"We'd like more integration with solutions like SolarWinds."
"The user interface must be made simpler and more effective."
"Ivanti Neurons for ITSM's support model is not very strong. You should buy professional services. Its self-service portal and survey are extremely lacking. You cannot customize it, and it doesn't look very good. The solution does not have a strong community."
"Sometimes I can't get the reports that I want until I go to the manager. They need to put more into the new reports. The standard reports are great, but there do not communicate as much."
"Support needs improvement in terms of responsiveness and timeliness."
"Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is not a user-friendly tool when compared to ServiceNow."
"Configuration requirements are extensive, even in basic Service Desk processes."
"The biggest area for improvement with PagerDuty is noise suppression. There have been a handful of incidents through our use of PagerDuty over the years where one incident may lead to 30 to 50 pages because you're monitoring all these different things, and each thing is an individual page. There should be the ability to set up paging tiers and group correlations between some of the different pages. That is something that would be really valuable. We should be able to say this one page may have a group or a tree of effective other pages that may tier off of it. So, if you see those pages independently, go ahead and alarm, but if you see this plus that, don't do that."
"PagerDuty could improve the event orchestration by enhancing features, such as easier condition setup inside the orchestration."
"The On-Call Teams feature could be better in terms of levels of conditions related to which team or member should get the responsibility of handling a matter or incident."
"The solution's analytics are okay. I don't think the features, at this point, give you a lot of insights. We have actually been trying to get insights from it but it hasn't really given us a lot of extra points to explore. We were looking at the number of alerts to see where many of the alerts were coming from. We never managed to get many insights on this."
"This solution works best in conjunction with a proper logging system, which can be an additional cost to organizations."
"PagerDuty's webhooks need some improvement."
"I am not a direct end user of PagerDuty. It's hard to consider its shortcomings in that sense."
"They could include incident merging and alert grouping features in the product."
