What do you like best about Splunk On-Call?

I love their responsiveness to the community and their working directly with us to make the best of their solution. Web hooks and other features are coming along nicely. The company really does well in the DevOps realm and provides CI/CD on their product.

Any time I have an issue or a feature request the team is quick to respond and to implement requests.

The team also is a leader in the DevOps community and they are willing to share their experiences with other teams out there.

I also love the fact that they are a local company so we are able to collaborate with them in person. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Splunk On-Call?

Nothing that I have disliked hasn't already been addressed. The one they are working on right now is the sms length sent from VO but that is more on the Nagios side of the house than VO. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Splunk On-Call:

Talk to their sales team. Look at playing around with a sandbox. Checkout onsite demos. These people are awesome at what they do and they integrate really well with multiple monitoring systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Splunk On-Call solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are getting all our monitoring through VO now and are ability to respond to alerts has increased dramatically. We are also able to see trending and are actively working to get play books and ticketing integrated with the alarms through the transmogrification tools.

As we continue to flesh out our monitoring system we look forward to integrating even more into out system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Splunk On-Call?

Being able to create teams and configure shifts between them is one of the most helpful resources available on this platform.

Splunk On-Call provides easy integrations with several tools making its configuration very easy to set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Splunk On-Call?

It may get a little tricky when wanting to schedule shifts between multiple teams and users. If you don't define how shifts should be previously, Splunk On-Call won't be helpful at this step. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Splunk On-Call solving and how is that benefiting you?

In addition to a robust observability platform, Splunk On-Call helps our team mitigate any issue incoming from different sources because of the ability to call or text message the people on current shifts. It provides the option of self-resolve any problem that meets certain conditions. It also provides a "window of silence" for incoming cases because they might self-resolve quickly, and nobody wants to receive a call for false positives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Rules Engine is great - I've used annotations to attach runbook articles to our alerts. The timeline interface is simple and easy to understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Splunk On-Call?

VictorOps offers integrations into all of our production environment, both cloud and on-prem; as well as tie into our primary group-communication package. We are able to route these disparate alerts through a singe notification tool; so that we do not need to install or monitor a variety of apps. The fine-grained controls that are in place for each of our data teams is also wonderful. TeamA needs 15 minute escalation thresholds with a backup team member; while TeamB only requires an hour-long window. Management can be slotted anywhere in the escalation chain as required by each team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Splunk On-Call?

battery usage when on call; and the phone app doesn't have 100% feature parity of the web portal. But both of those may be the nature of the mobile beast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Splunk On-Call solving and how is that benefiting you?

Ensuring our Real-time data pipeline is performant. Both user-facing data that has sub-200ms thresholds as well as the large data lake ingestion pipeline that the front-end data stream produces must be performing within specifications. VictorOps allows us to define the ever-changing thresholds and respond to business impacting events immediately.

If an emergency appears outside of business hours, VIctorOps has allowed us to contact stakeholders, product owners or developers directly, immediately; and with effective results. If someone is not on call, therefore not anticipating any communication but their input is required; VictorOps will alert the your phone as if you are on call. Other communication tools may emit a simple notification try icon that may go unnoticed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Splunk On-Call?

Both the web and mobile app are fantastic that allow for full control whether you are on a computer, mobile app, or Slack. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Splunk On-Call?

That the app wakes me up in the middle of the night! Truly don't have any dislikes with the solution. Support is always willing to assist with any issues including finding a solution due to any specific business requirement you have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Splunk On-Call:

This solution is a must for any IT, DevOps, or Operations. Previously sent alerts to text messages manually resulting in missed alerts and alert fatigue for team members that weren't on-call. VictorOps manages the alerting process seamlessly with excellent scheduling functionality, including temporary overrides when needed, to ensure your entire team maintains a quality of life! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ability to support 24x7x365 rotation between a 4 member team. The "timeline" feature is excellent both for real-time incident response as well as allowing for detailed post-mortems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Splunk On-Call?

The ability to handle incidents, escalations and grabbing point duty off my teammates from the mobile app is awesome. Also, the fact that alerts from VictorOps override my phone's sound profile means I can silent my phone and sleep tight while not being worried of missing a critial alert while asleep during 24 hours point duties.

The app is also light and have seen lots of improvement over time.

Working with the API is a bliss and it has many integrations with default tools like Zendesk.

I love it. 1000% recommended. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Splunk On-Call?

I would like to be able to schedule overrides and change regular scheduling from the mobile app for emergency schedule changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Splunk On-Call solving and how is that benefiting you?

Point duties and crucial DevOps alerts from our monitoring system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Splunk On-Call?

I use victorops on a daily basis with a team of other devops people, and by allowing us to schedule and customize our alerts whether that be though its many integration points or its various methods of alerting. Its easy for us to switch shifts and set up schedules. I enjoy the many different contact methods it supports so that I can set it to text me, send a push notification or call me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Splunk On-Call?

In general I enjoy the android app, it's completely functional, however i'd like it to reach feature parity with the website, i'd like to be able to do all the management stuff i need to do from the website from the app. Besides that, they could also introduce a dark mode on the web version of the application Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
