When it all boils down, on-call is about making sure the right people are notified at the right time when things break. This could be a specific team, schedule, individual(s), or even a Slack channel. Yet many tools on the market make this simple task needlessly complicated to configure by only allowing escalation policies to page services or individuals. This leaves users who want to set up on-call rotations for teams who may not own a specific serviceโ€”for example, a Legal teamโ€”stuck relying on tricky workarounds to ensure theyโ€™re notified correctly.

Weโ€™ve made it simple. When you create an escalation policy in Rootly, you can assign it to a service or team, and you can notify Slack channels and individuals within the same policy used to page the on-call schedule of your choice. All these alert recipients are found in easily searchable drop-downs. Take a look:


Itโ€™s never been easier or more straightforward to create and manage your escalation policies, no matter whoโ€™s receiving the alert!
