Its a batmobile, but needs you to be batman.

What do you like best about the product?
It calls me when my code is going sideways.
The on-call scheduling is a lifesaver too, ensuring that the right people are always ready to swoop in and save the day. Third are the integrations, that allow frequent access of alerts and related data. Since its not practical to open any app repeatedly, quick & easy integrations like slack and email are really helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
As for dislikes, I'd say the learning curve can be a bit steep for newcomers.

It's like getting the keys to the Batmobile without the manual, or rather a very big manual. But once you get the hang of it, the power is undeniable. We have a POC from the team attached to our slack channel who's always eager to support our queries and is proactive in resolving them, but I believe the UI could be polished to make it more intuitive, and stop those queries altogether.

The platform a number of features, which is great, but might be a bit overwhelming for beginners. I'd love a wizard that can be played anytime as a walkthrough of the platform.

We majorly use the slack integration to get all alters in our channels. Like linear, if the slack threads could be sync'd with an incident, it'd be a holy blessing. Imaging clicking on an issue and seeing all conversations that have happened related to it. A massive productivity boost, especially for daily users and devops teams.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Squadcast solves the chaos that comes with incident management. It's a streamlined solution that ensures everyone on the team is on the same page when it comes to tackling issues.

The on-call scheduling feature is a blessing, making sure the right people are always ready for action. No more fumbling around to figure out who's on duty.

Integrations ensure there's no communication gap, get everything in your mailbox and slack.

Cost effective incident management

  • November 09, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Squacast is an Incident Management at cost effective pricing. We migrated from PagerDuty, because of the excessive prize/increase.

The setup was easy and anyone with some basic knowledge should be able to do it. SquadCast has a good number of integrations. A seamless integration with DataDog Monitors. It automatically resolves the incidents when they are resolved in DataDog.

In addition, the OOTB MMTA and MTTR on the main dashboard keep everyone informed about organizational numbers.
What do you dislike about the product?
- There has to be a lite offering, to just get notified along with integrations. Incident Management at startups doesn't need fancy metrics and tracking. A lite version with call/sms and tracking support is enough.

- The SSO setup with Google Workspace was not clear. It required back and forth with their support but finally worked. A quick setup demo video should have helped.
