How do you like ours? http://stephenherrod.files.wordpress.com/2014/04/runscope_t-...

Trying to crowd in on our announcement, John? :) On topic: RunScope is not only one of our many many partners, I also use their tools for almost all of my hackdays.

Wait till you try the Android app. I have no words.

Ryan from the PagerDuty support team here. Have you tried any of the newer versions? They're greatly improved. If you can pass any feedback along to support@pagerduty.com it would be much appreciated.

Being able to schedule overrides using the app would be awesome.

Thanks for the feedback. That's definitely on our radar.

The iOS app is the single worst piece of shit app I have ever used. Take a look at VictorOps.

I've been using OpsGenie, which also offers incoming support phone numbers, and push notifications since day one. They did improve their Android app, but it seems that VictorOps one-ups both PD and OG.

It so happens that we are also hiring a ton! Check us out at http://www.pagerduty.com/company/work-with-us/ or reach out to me directly if you're interested in working on hard problems with highly available distributed systems (email in profile).

Congratulations! PagerDuty has an amazing technical team and their focus on reliability is an inspiration (just see their post on Failure Fridays[1]). Which is super important for when your systems are at the worst and require immediate manual help.

Thanks Daniel. Here's another peek into the work we've put into building a reliable system - http://blog.pagerduty.com/2014/04/end-to-end-sms-provider-te...

NB: how about providing a more complete and constructive criticism of the app?

Your comment as it stands isn't particularly useful. Specifics would improve it greatly.

We tried switching to VictorOps and in the first hour their website started crashing our browser.

It turned out each event was rendering in its own frame, and when we had more than a couple hundred alerts, the browser took more memory than available.

Supposedly its fixed now, but I'm not interested in being a beta tester for an alert system.
