Effective Incident Alerting With OnPage

OnPage orchestrates alerts originating from incidents, enabling incident response teams to start the triage and remediation process. These alerts can override the silent switch and provide ALERT-UNTIL-READ capabilities, ensuring that critical messages are never missed. OnPage’s escalation, redundancy, and scheduling features make the system infinitely more secure and reliable than emails, texts and phone calls.

Escalation Groups

When an on-call technician on the incident team is preoccupied with another task or is momentarily unavailable to attend a ticket, it is necessary to have escalations as part of effective incident communication. The escalation policy routes the ticket to the next on-call engineer based on a pre-configured path, after a pre-defined interval.
