Featured Reviews

Pramodh M - PeerSpot reviewer
DevSecOps Consultant at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
Offers different levels of notification options, including WhatsApp integration
Opsgenie has been most valuable in managing our incident response. We use Opsgenie for on-call management of AWS services, and its integration with CloudWatch has been particularly beneficial. Opsgenie alerts us to anomalies in cloud services, not just incidents but also performance issues like delayed response times or execution errors. So, we will quickly know about the issue, and it allows us to take swift action. It has been very helpful to us. Opsgenie's strength lies in its configurable alerting levels, from first responders to escalation managers. It offers different levels of notification options, including WhatsApp integration, ensuring timely alerts to the relevant team members. We also use the on-call scheduling feature. It is easy to use. The on-call scheduling feature is user-friendly and easily integrates with our existing systems, streamlining schedule management without added complexity.
Ramani Happy - PeerSpot reviewer
Dev Ops Engineer at Data Elicit Solutions Pvt. Ltd.
Streamlined incident response has reduced downtime and improved on-call collaboration
A few things I would improve in Splunk On-Call. Honestly, the reporting and analysis side feels a bit weak. If I want to deep dive into the on-call load, including MTTD and MTTR rates, I kind of have to export data and build my own dashboard, which is not as out-of-the-box as I would prefer. The UI has improved, but it still feels a little chunky in certain areas, particularly when managing schedules. When I have a lot of teams, it can get messy. Additionally, the pricing model is per user, which starts to get expensive as the team scales.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The rotation and scheduling are beneficial."
"Opsgenie has been most valuable in managing our incident response. We use Opsgenie for on-call management of AWS services, and its integration with CloudWatch has been particularly beneficial. Opsgenie alerts us to anomalies in cloud services, not just incidents but also performance issues like delayed response times or execution errors. So, we will quickly know about the issue, and it allows us to take swift action. It has been very helpful to us."
"Taking into account that Opsgenie "saved" many devices in our environment from getting overheated, which would have caused a major outage in our HQ offices, I believe the monthly subscription cost was way lower than the return."
"Opsgenie integrates with Atlassian and other web monitoring and incident management tools."
"Regarding advice, it is a good tool, and the integration is seamless."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to automatically create a ticket for the support team when there is an alert."
"This is a scalable solution. I would rate it a nine out of ten for scalability."
"The product is integrated into almost all services, including Grafana, AWS, and others."
"The alert calling feature is the best because notifications are delivered via phone messages."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is helpdesk escalation."
"VictorOps has been good enough for us and it's effective for our needs in case of an on-call escalation process."
"The big benefit of using Splunk On-Call is that I know I have a high-performance team, but now I can really measure and prove it."
"My VP of Operations is ecstatic about the VictorOps product."
"Transmogrifier and automatic solution report gives me a report with the solution and the way to solve issues when an error occurred."
"We are very satisfied with the tool."
"VictorOps has decreased the meantime to acknowledge an incident management process, our developers can be on-call faster when we are using this solution, and we can fix our incidents much quicker."
 

Cons

"The handshake with the monitoring tools can also be improved. When there were a bunch of alerts or the number of alerts was more than a thousand in a minute, OpsGenie wasn't able to handle everything properly. The handshake issues were there."
"We are using the cloud version of Atlassian products now, but I think the Data Center version we used earlier was much more user-friendly. There are lots of limitations in the cloud version The add-on or features that work with the Data Center versions are not compatible with the cloud version."
"I would like to see improvements in reporting capabilities that could provide additional value."
"It should also come with cloud integrations, which are not that great with OpsGenie as of now."
"They could introduce many more features, which we believe is on their roadmap."
"It should have a lot of plugins. It should also come with cloud integrations, which are not that great with OpsGenie as of now. It should have AWS, Azure, and Google cloud integrations. It should also provide automation, that is, it should open somewhere, like orchestration. Something like the orchestration that ServiceNow is doing. That would be great. Orchestration is the main thing. If OpsGenie comes with stack down feature, not completely but some part of it, and orchestration is there, that would be beneficial."
"Typically, the alerts are vague at times, and when the automated callers begin reading that alert, it does not make sense to us."
"The installation of other applications is difficult in Opsgenie. I would like to see more flexible reporting methodologies. Scalability and pricing also need to be improved."
"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 third-party configuration tool could be easier to use."
"There could be improvements with communicating an incident or alert."
"The only feature that we are currently waiting on right now is really kind of an annoyance factor: when we get on the timeline on the main dashboard, there’s an ACK All button."
"We chose to move away from the HP product as far as our monitoring goes and dealing with system-generated alerts, simply because it took too much time and effort to manage the APM platform."
"The solution can be improved by including a wider list of permissions."
"User management has to be improved and more user types need to be added as there is currently only Admin or User."
"I would say a little bit of the user experience and the user interface of Splunk On-Call can be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's prices are exorbitant."
"I rate Opsgenie eight out of 10 for affordability. Opsgenie is on the cheaper side, and it fits our budget. I estimate the license costs around $400 to 500 annually for 15 users. The price is available on the internet. It's a standard, straightforward price."
"In the company I'm working for, currently, we are using the standard edition of Opsgenie. We're paying around $3,000 a month. It's a bit expensive compared to the other tools we use for different purposes. We find it a bit expensive because although Opsgenie is a complete tool for monitoring, it does not provide us with everything."
"The pricing is on the lower side; I would rate it a six out of ten, with ten being low price, which indicates good affordability."
"From the pricing perspective, they are on the higher side as compared to other competitors."
"Integration with other solutions is one of the most valuable features of Opsgenie."
"I'm not the person who dealt with Opsgenie in terms of pricing, and I don't know how the solution compares to other solutions in the market, price-wise. I won't be able to say if it gives you the best value for money or not, but if Opsgenie gives good value for money, then I don't see a reason why you shouldn't use it."
"The cost of the solution depends on the package you select and is per user."
"The price of the solution could be less expensive."
