The biggest knock against pagerduty is its both expensive and doesnt have simple features like connecting Pagerduty schedules to slack user groups.
For example if I want to have a slack group that pings (not pages) to current oncall person
```
@oc-platform
```
I need to pay $25/month to a random third party slack app.
Its insane, do they even use pagerduty internally?
Tbh this took us about a day to build and well worth it. Makes on-call lives so much easier. Not sure why they don't yet https://rootly.com/changelog/sync-on-call-schedules-with-sla.... Sorry to be promotional.
