**Reviewed Date:** February 14, 2024

At G2, we prefer fresh reviews and we like to follow up with reviewers. They may not have updated their review text, but have updated their review.

**What do you like best about xMatters?**

Messaging system and Dashboard for alerts

**What do you dislike about xMatters?**

1. Schedule override can be better & It's difficult to put schedule overrides.<br><br>2. Problem - When multiple alerts get triggered at the same time from xMatters, then xMatters triggers a phone call for every alert to the same on-call person. If you are on the first xMatter alert call, then xMatters keeps calling you for other alerts. So the person cannot concentrate on the first call itself. Instead, xMatter should wait for 1 minute or so, gather information for alerts within that minute, and make a single call for all alerts triggered within that minute. Or you guys have a better solution for this. Our application is configured with multiple apps and multiple environments.

**What problems is xMatters solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Alerting system with dedicated events like messaging with alert triggered, then after 5 minutes a phone call to the on-call person, then after 15 minutes escalation to the next level.

**Official Response from Samantha Brown:**

> Vinay, thank you for your wonderful review on G2 Crowd. We’re grateful for your feedback and thrilled to have you as a customer.The alert flood control feature might be useful if you want to ask your account team about that. We will share feedback with our teams about schedule override as well.

Being able to contact multiple people quickly without needing to know their contact details and the group members. The escalation system that contacts the substitute in case of no handling or no response after a certain period is great!

**Reviewed Date:** February 15, 2024

**What do you like best about xMatters?**

xMatters is an excellent tool to log tickets in ServiceNow automatically once any issue occurs in the application. I like the UI for working with tickets, assigning slots to team members based on region, reports, and many more. Its integration is very good with ServiceNow. Many times I don't need to use ServiceNow to close the ticket; it closes automatically from xMatters within a few clicks. Its customer support is excellent for fixing any issue or any new integration. It is very easy to use. Our team uses this xMatters tool very frequently on their shift to make sure tickets are closed in time. The implementation of all integrations is very easy and smooth.

**What do you dislike about xMatters?**

This is not a dislike, but sometimes I observe a slightly slow response while closing tickets. This is kind of negligible, but it would be better if we could improve this.

**What problems is xMatters solving and how is that benefiting you?**

This has resolved auto logging INC tickets in ServiceNow without any manual effort.

Due to the simple and easy frequency of use, this tool's usage has increased daily. Ease of integration with mobile notifications makes instant alerting for any issue occurred.

**What do you dislike about xMatters?**

The procedure to implement automation tasks is a little bit complicated. Available videos are enough, but more training videos or channels should be available to learn the uses and automation stuff of xMatters features.

**What problems is xMatters solving and how is that benefiting you?**

In the Production support IT industry, we track lots of Incident and task tickets, which involve lots of time and effort. While using xMatters, it helps us track and resolve our product-related issue alerting by automation, which saves us a lot of time and effort. The drag-and-drop feature allows us to create a personalized interaction interface where we can interact with other members to monitor probable incidents and resolve them ASAP.

Basically, xMatters and ServiceNow are our main tools for the product, which involve us and clients to deliver support as per clients' needs and expectations.

We have found some issues with the logging verbosity. It's hard to determine where the problem is at times due to a lack of visibility into the logs of the agent and/or workflows.

We are able to automate certain functions that would normally require a response from multiple teams in the off hours and speed up our time to recovery without involving excess personnel.

Xmatters has plenty of integrations so an engineer can be notified about events/incidents from a variety of sources. The app, calling feature, SMS, and email alerts are always on time and notify the correct individual.

The scheduling process is clunky to not only see who is currently on call, but also to do the scheduling itself if we lose a team member or need to add a new engineer to the rotation.

**What problems is xMatters solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Removing the human factor of calling engineers for incidents. We now receive calls immediately when there is an issue vs. 5 to 15 minutes later with a NOC engineer "eyes-on-glass" then finding the correct team to call.

This is the emergency alert from the mobile app (:-) laugh), but it sounds loud even if you're sleeping it wakes you up. It's good, but it's still unpleasant sometimes.

**What problems is xMatters solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use Xmatters to get alerted about IT incidents. And it has been doing its job well so far.

**What do you like best about xMatters?**

xMatters is very easy to use, and is usable on both Android and iOS Platforms. We use it every day, and have not had any issues yet. We are able to integrate custom API scripts into xMatters for alerting for very specific needs. It is very easy to setup, and you hit the ground running with this solution. Our customer support of our clients has increased significantly, and we have less complaints of missed alerting.

**What do you dislike about xMatters?**

Closing only one alert at a time is a hassle, if there was a way to acknowledge a batch amount of alerts that would make this tool incredible. Swapping "On-Call" shifts with another employee is kind of hard to understand at first.

**What problems is xMatters solving and how is that benefiting you?**

xMatters helps us solve the issue of On-Call alerting, especially after hours. It also helps respond to specific SLAs for customers when an incident does occur.
