    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    Very clean UI and menu. Dasbhoard to give quick view of current status/active incident
    What do you dislike about the product?
    So far based on my uses cases, I did not find anything which i would say is missing or have to be different.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    We were looking for incident management based on user that we wanted to have account for and Squadcast have all the features that we wanted to start with also the price was within budget.
    Since we implemented, all the incident which needs to be taken care on priority are now getting right attention and visibility, also team members get calls and escalation policy helps further that if call is missed by one person then it goes to other and so on.
    Which at the end gets acknowledge and team start to work on it or assign to appropriate team after basis analysis.

    With multiple rotas set up, it can be sometimes difficult to read the schedules screen for who is on-call in different rotas.

    Squadcast alerts us to issues occurring in our production software. This helps us to keep our customers happy by responding to issues promptly.

    Smooth Migration from PagerDuty and Excellent Support!

    Reviewed on Oct 29, 2024
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    After over three years of using PagerDuty, we decided to switch to Squadcast, mainly due to challenges with PagerDuty’s pricing and customer support. Squadcast came highly recommended by one of our advisors, and I’m glad we made the switch!

    The Enterprise plan at $21 per user per month, with no minimum commitment, makes Squadcast an incredibly flexible and transparent solution. The migration process was seamless; the Squadcast team helped us achieve parity with our previous PagerDuty setup, including migrating all schedules, escalation policies, and configurations. The Customer Success team has been a highlight—they are available on Slack and are always quick to respond, providing us with immediate support whenever needed.

    Overall, I find Squadcast to be a superior product compared to PagerDuty, with better pricing, support, and flexibility. Highly recommended for teams looking to make a switch!
    What do you dislike about the product?
    So far everything is going good. We don't have any complaints.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Squadcast is helping us streamline our incident management processes with greater flexibility and responsiveness, solving key issues we faced with our previous solution. First, the transparent pricing model removes the financial strain we experienced with PagerDuty, allowing us to scale as needed without worrying about hidden costs or restrictive commitments. This financial flexibility is a huge benefit for our team, as it aligns well with our budget and user growth needs.

    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    We initially chose Squadcast to provide a public status page for the service status of our software solutions. Its incident management capabilities enabled us to establish a structured workflow for incident communication and management
