Keep the team in sync

Keep pushing the non-critical updates out on a shared channel and let the critical ones get to the right users
  • Send updates on chat channels and team emails for tracking
  • Get alerted about unusual infrastructure activities
  • Get alerted about async or cron task failures
  • Consume digest of daily system health instead of getting alerts on non actionable events

Customized subscriber experience

Use the service as a broadcasting platform or let the users customize the importance of the channel for themselves
  • Let the subscribers choose the priority for themselves. An alert for a developer might be high, but the VP of Engg might be low
  • In other words it's embarissing for a developer when the CTO tells them about a faliure they caused!
  • Host a button on your service page for anyone to ping you regarding queries
  • Templating option available for creating dynamic messages filled with notification context

Trigger analytics

Tracking and triggering analytics are generated automatically and available for slicing and dicing
  • Out of the box basic tacking analytics available as soon as you fire notifications
  • Build company dashboards for everyone to look at everyday (place them on a TV in the common area)!
  • Actionable insight generation (comin soon)

Build against our API

We provide all data back in consumable API form for you to build your own workflows
  • Integrate with your CI / CD integrations to block builds if a success notification is not fired
  • Integrate with your current APMs, to triggers alerts as any graph value spikes
  • Your call .. We can't wait to hear how you plan to consume this data!
