Helped us adopt SRE best practices

For a growing company like ours, Squadcast Freemium helped us adopt SRE best practices at scale and we haven't missed a single alert. The game changer was the schedule overrides feature which helped us override our manual process prior to Squadcast’s implementation. Using Squadcast really helped us track our SLAs promised to various customers. We noticed that our ack and resolution times went down significantly.

Drastic reduction in alert noise

With Squadcast we saw a drastic reduction in incidents due to suppression of non-urgent alerts and deduplication of alerts. This ensured that only actionable and relevant incidents are reaching the engineers, thereby reducing noise and alert fatigue. Implementing Squadcast helped us achieve better visibility into system health, operational transparency and assurance of SLAs to our customers
