Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I personally love VCC because I just think there needs to be more data to support it so we can be more proactive and easily assess the impact. So, I appreciate the visual aspect, but it has to have the data to support it. It has proved very useful, particularly because we have a GSOC that's not technically 24/7. We do have an 800 number that people call 24/7. If something happens, they can easily send Everbridge a notification to activate the team off hours. It is useful in that respect too. We use it in conjunction with teams, but off-hours and for additional people outside of the core team, we use Everbridge, which is useful.""Even in the first few months, we realized some of those benefits around shortening the time to resolution.""With SaaS, we can implement in other regions without having to physically go to there.""Powerful conference bridging that rigorously reaches out to stakeholders, which saves time working an issue. The mobile app provides ease of use for our resolvers and mobile push has proven quick and reliable. It also gives us flexibility around creating sometimes complex shifts within an on-call calendar.""People are able to join a bridge with one press of a button. It gives us the ability to contact the correct people via rules, based on conditions.""The email integration, the ability to launch from other programs using email triggers, was the primary reason we got the solution and it's been really helpful""The most important feature, from our perspective, is the integration with our ticketing system. That eliminates wasted motion and time in drafting and sending and finding the right distribution list.""The most important features are the scheduling capability and the integration with ServiceNow."

"VictorOps has been good enough for us and it's effective for our needs in case of an on-call escalation process.""The flexible schedule is the most valuable feature. It was very easy to set out a rotation.""The most valuable feature of the solution is helpdesk escalation.""The alert calling feature is the best because notifications are delivered via phone messages.""Transmogrifier and automatic solution report gives me a report with the solution and the way to solve issues when an error occurred."

Cons
"The ability for members to change their schedules, and change the person their swapping with, could use improvement. The GUI is a little tough to navigate. It's not very straightforward when someone is trying to change schedules.""I know that we get frustrated at the capacity of SMS messages. It's not very long, and if you want to send a long message, they end up sending you a link to the rest of the message.""There is some room to improve the initial-rollout functions which are a little bit painful.""An ability to get to the database that houses our information would be great. Currently, we are at the mercy of Everbridge and, if they do not have the function built, we cannot gather the information that we would like.""I would like them to add GPS going forward.""Lacks ability to customize messages.""I've worked closely with Everbridge teams in my previous positions too, and the one thing I would like to see is the distance. You have to measure it, and it's not really accurate. If we could have a general distance within the alert itself to tell us where the closest asset is, it would be useful. That's one thing I'd like to see.""One thing that could be improved would be to enable the mobile app to more easily display published calendars via the Member Portal. Currently, it is quite difficult."

More Everbridge IT Alerting Cons →

"There could be improvements with communicating an incident or alert.""Should have more YouTube webinars.""At that stage, all our needs are fulfilled, but at the beginning, we had some feature requests and they were deployed during their roadmap.""The solution can be improved by including a wider list of permissions.""The third-party configuration tool could be easier to use."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "When we did our contract, we did a three year contract with fixed pricing. We locked in the pricing for three years. As we have grown, we locked in pricing for additional units of employees."
  • "Their call structure is based on how many people are IT alert people and who is on the calendar, and the cost will be driven by those numbers versus if you are using it for the non-IT alert. As you look at the competition and other vendors, make sure you truly understand your cost structure with them."
  • "They are one of the top three most expensive products. I also understand if you are going to use them for IT alerting, it is worth it. They are competitively priced, but the IT alerting is the differentiator. The way that they market it and push it out. That is their premier function."
  • "Pricing is reasonable."
  • "For us, the pricing is a good value. I can't say whether or not their list pricing looks favorable to everyone who's checking, but I can say that the process of sourcing and procurement with them was very professional, comfortable, and friendly. The negotiations were done well on both sides, and in the end, I'd say the price was very effective... I think that people will find that Everbridge is a great listener and is willing to meet in the middle."
  • "Their pricing is a good value and very reasonable. They are very upfront about their pricing. There is nothing confusing about it."
  • "We thought the base product was pretty reasonable. It can pricey once you start adding stuff on."
  • "It saves us a lot of time."
