About PagerDuty
PagerDuty sits between your alerts and your sleep: schedules, escalation policies, and intelligent grouping ensure real incidents reach the right on-call human fast, while noise gets suppressed. Automation runbooks and AI triage shrink resolution times. It is the category standard with pricing to match, and over-alerting cultures will still burn out without process discipline.
