When we receive alerts in a timely manner, we can proactively monitor our systems without downtime, maintaining system health with proper alerts, and within the time frame, we can take the necessary action to resolve those alerts, helping to delay major incidents and achieving uptime above 99.9% and 99.2%.

Squadcast has positively impacted our organization because we are timely getting alerts, and based on those alerts, we can take the required actions, so if there is any burning security alert, we can timely act to avoid production downtime, which results in a return on investment, and there are many transactional costs involved in it, so by reducing the downtime of the system, we are able to save revenue loss from the client side.

Squadcast notifications have helped me resolve issues faster because they notify me as soon as an issue happens, and then I go and fix it before it gets escalated to further sections.

Squadcast has positively impacted our organization because we are confident that we will not miss any alert or system outage, as Squadcast ensures the alert reaches the person even if the SRE person is not available.

I remember when we were working on the integration, the documentation was not great, and we found it difficult to understand what the document was saying in some parts.

In terms of improvements for Squadcast, there are opportunities, such as having only two workflows for tagging alerts based on priority P1, P2, with our current premium plan.

Squadcast user interface is poor, especially when you are on a smaller screen, as it makes the navigation experience very bad.

Squadcast can be improved if we restrict the manual resolution of alerts, as currently this feature is lacking inside Squadcast.

One feature I think Squadcast must improve is the message quality and call quality we get; currently, the proper message is not being clearly heard on the calls we receive.
