The on-call scheduling and the mobile app are the standout features. The scheduling engine is incredibly robust—handling complex rotations, follow-the-sun models, and last-minute overrides is seamless once the logic is set up. The mobile app is equally impressive; it’s intuitive, reliable, and allows for quick triage or acknowledgement of incidents without needing to open a laptop. It really nails the "responder experience" by putting critical actions front and center.

1.Our infrastructure foor print caters across AWS, Datadog, New Relic, and other tools. We used to have trouble monitoring all the application under different dashboards and with teams across th globe, this used to be very challenging. 2.PagerDuty has seamless integration with all the above services including Teams and Slack channels, enabled us a single point of source monitoring(dashboards) and response(its auomtaion capabilities) across 40+ accounts and 50+ microservices. 3.Its automated and priority-based notifications (emails, calls, messages) and dynamic on-call scheduling capabilities giving the option to notify the the right teams based on the service and ensure response instantly (Acknowledging via Phone call, message & email), reducing MTTR for critical services. All this can be done via Mobile App is an added advantage. 4.Its Built-in options for conference bridges for each service, configuring issue resolution guides, automation (Rundeck) to run primary health checks, service graphs enable global teams to troubleshoot together in real time, ensuring business continuity 24/7 which is priority for our business every single day. 5.Dashboards provide leadership with a clear view of service health, issue trends, and performance metrics, driving informed decisions and proactive improvements. 6. Learnign wise, Pagerduty university has lof of content to learn and certify. I have done Pagerduty Incident Responder course a7 certification for free.

I like PagerDuty because it ensures critical alerts reach the right people at the right time. Its on-call scheduling and escalation policies help reduce downtime and respond to incidents quickly.
