What are we looking for?

Handover for on-call schedules in this workflow can be problematic due to inconsistent communication and lack of clear documentation. Misunderstandings can occur when shifts change, leading to missed alerts or incomplete information being passed along. Relying solely on Slack can result in important details being buried in message threads, making it hard to track ongoing issues. Additionally, ensuring all team members are aware of and understand the current state of incidents can be challenging without a centralized, updated repository.

Pagerly

Introducing Pagerly, a cutting-edge solution designed to streamline and enhance the efficiency of on-call schedules and incident management workflows. 

In many organizations, handovers during on-call shifts can be fraught with inconsistencies in communication and a lack of clear documentation. 

This often leads to misunderstandings, missed alerts, and incomplete information being passed along. Traditional reliance on tools like Slack can exacerbate these issues, as critical details may become buried in lengthy message threads, making it difficult to track ongoing incidents. 

Pagerly addresses these challenges by providing a centralized and continuously updated repository, ensuring that all team members are always aware of and understand the current state of incidents. 

With Pagerly, organizations can significantly reduce the risks associated with handovers and maintain seamless, efficient incident management processes.
