Rootly vs. Splunk On-Call

Rootly is great for both remote companies and in-person, but especially well suited for remote. There is such a wide variety of functionalities that Rootly can offer, both internally for your company and externally for your customers. Rootly streamlines and centralizes a lot of data you may be keeping in separate spaces which could be excluding some memebers from being in the loop and adds additional time in your day tracking and organization information. Rootly makes everything real-time for our company through the integrations

Splunk On-Call has proved to be a great help in incident response within my organization. With the scheduling and assignment feature it is never in question which engineer is tasked with each assignment/incident. Being able to quickly and easily access all relevant logs greatly expedites incident resolution time. I would argue that the larger the environment and incident volume, the more important a tool such as this will prove to be.

great usability, bit of a learning curve with the product because there is so much information to digest and Rootly gives you lots of different angles and preferences for how you would like to see it displayed. For those with high tech skills its much easier but for those who are less tech savvy it can be overwhelming

Not a lot of love given to VO since the acquisition by Splunk from my POV

VictorOps support has proven excellent for us. Because it is such a widely used tool, there is a lot of documentation on usage, and a large community of users to lean on. Also, many engineers have had experience working with VictorOps already, and the tool is so easy to setup / manage that much support isn't really necessary.

Splunk is more intelligent, easy, and faster compared to other tools in the market. Easy to configure, and customization can be done easily. It's more user-friendly, and it adds more value when I mention about the navigation panel. Multi-level escalations and root cause analysis is done in an intelligent way. Troubleshooting is faster.
