PagerDuty Named a Leader in GigaOm’s Inaugural 2023 Incident Response Platforms Radar Evaluation
In a world where organizations of all industries increasingly rely on digital innovation and experiences to create differentiation in the market, it has never been more critical to ensure the integrity of their operations are safeguarded against unforeseen outages and incidents. Operational disruptions today can have a major impact on brand reputation, create negative revenue implications and impact customer loyalty. Beyond the world of customers, employees today also rely on mission-critical apps to manage their day-to-day internal operations and any unplanned interruptions can harm the business.
Despite the large-scale endeavors companies have pursued to mitigate failures stemming from the complexity of today’s modern technology platforms, incident volume has continued to steadily grow and even the biggest and most valuable brands have discovered they are not immune from large scale incidents. According to a recent report and survey conducted by EMA Research, most respondents see IT outages and significant incidents as either increasing (40%) or remaining roughly the same (27%), however another 15% of participants acknowledged that they’ve experienced an increase, “but think they can lower the impact with AIOps and automation.” With the growing cost and pervasiveness of unplanned outages, organizations can’t risk adopting “good enough” incident management solutions and processes to manage their operations.
Instead, they need to prioritize finding a vendor partner that takes a holistic approach to managing operations by combining the best of incident management, AIOps, and automation under one unified platform to arm front line responders, operations leaders and CIOs with the tools they need to achieve operational excellence.
