"Have had nothing but great experiences with AlertOps"
What do you like best about AlertOps?

Ease of setup and a strong implementation team made this an excellent experience off the get go. The auto rotating on call schedules made on call a breeze. The reports made it very clear if someone wasn't meeting expectations of their on call time. Also, how versitile is it. You can use this with just a standable phone system, or integrate it directly into your ticket system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AlertOps?

Add and removing people sometimes could be a bit daunting. The calender live updates itself and if you lose track of what you were doing, it could end a negitive result with the team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"AlertOps has been a great solution to our On-Call alarm management and routing."
What do you like best about AlertOps?

The flexibility that comes with live call routing, as well as the escalation policies for ensuring that an Alert is taken care of. These features have eliminated the wrong person being notified and have made the alert management process mush smoother than in the past. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AlertOps?

A minor negative is the scheduling feature, it could be better for our specific application. It does everything it needs to do, but requires a few extra steps to accomplish our specific need.

Overall effective and would likely be preferred for most standard use cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"AlertOps is excellent"
What do you like best about AlertOps?

We needed a system to send alerts from Meraki, Auvik, UpTime Robot, and generic email notifications to ConnectWise Manage as tickets. AlertOps was the only system that could handle this and I've been very satisfied with their platform and support. They helped us with the setup and even came up with a solution for a special need of ours. Highly recommended. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AlertOps?

There are some limitations in the UI and some functionality is not always intuitive, but their documentation is very thorough and their support is very responsive and helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
