What is On-Call Alerting?

On-call alerting is a process that allows organizations to send automated, alert-until-read notifications to their staff when a potential problem is detected in systems and applications, infrastructure, or physical assets. These alerts are loud, persistent and continue to notify until they are read, making them reliable. Intelligent alerts are promptly sent to a designated staff or on-call team based on on-call schedules and routing rules, who can take action to resolve this issue.
