What is Pagerly?

Pagerly is a software product that brings on-call scheduling, paging, incident response and task assignment into Slack and Microsoft Teams. Instead of switching to a separate console, responders acknowledge pages, swap shifts, open incidents and update status pages from the chat tool they already use.

The company says more than 1,000 organisations use it, from startups to Fortune 500, and that it is ISO 27001 certified. It also positions itself as a replacement for Opsgenie, which it says shuts down in April 2027.

How does Pagerly work?

Teams install Pagerly from Slack, then build rotations natively or import schedules from Opsgenie, PagerDuty or Jira Service Management. Slack user groups such as @oncall update automatically as shifts change, so mentions always reach the current responder.

Alert tools like Datadog, Grafana, Sentry and AWS CloudWatch send events to a Pagerly webhook. Each alert becomes an incident in the right channel, repeat firings update one incident, and the on-call engineer is paged by call, SMS, email or app until someone acknowledges.

Key features of Pagerly

The core of the product is rotations, escalation policies and incident channels. Incidents can include an assigned Incident Commander, an auto-generated Zoom link, a linked Jira ticket and dashboard links, with timeline and handover reports afterward. MTTA and MTTR are tracked for each incident.

Pagerly also includes status pages with subscribers by email, RSS, Atom or webhook, uptime monitoring for your own endpoints, and monitoring of more than 3,000 third-party services. Task management, workflows, mobile and macOS apps, a Terraform provider and an optional AI SRE agent round out the platform.

Key Features

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Billed per team rather than per responder, so large rotations do not raise the base price.
  • Runs rotations, paging, incidents, status pages and tasks in Slack and Microsoft Teams.
  • One-click Opsgenie import and two-way syncs with Jira, JSM and PagerDuty ease migration.
  • Paging runs on Pagerly infrastructure, so calls, SMS and email still work if Slack is down.
  • Deduplicates alerts from 17 sources and auto-resolves incidents where the tool sends a recovery.
  • States ISO 27001 certification and stores only authentication keys, not integration data.

Cons

  • Paging by call, SMS and email is a $4 per responder add-on, so real on-call costs more than the team price.
  • Basic lacks PagerDuty and Opsgenie sync, status pages and task management, which require Starter.
  • The AI SRE agent and Enterprise plan have no public prices and need a sales conversation.
  • Plans are per workspace and no refunds are offered, though cancellation is allowed at any time.
