Mobile alerting with tracking & escalation for BigPanda

SIGNL4-BigPanda

 Why SIGNL4

BigPanda is an artificial intelligence software that detects and analyzes problems in IT systems. It provides capabilities for event correlation, root cause analysis, event enrichment and more.

IT staff and mobile workers are not able to sit in front of a dashboard to actively monitor incidents all the time. SIGNL4 enhances BigPanda to notify the mobile teams in the field or on call in real-time. This speeds up their response significantly and frees resources in the operations.

 How it Works

BigPanda compatibility allows you to distribute operational alerts to a mobile SIGNL4 teams by using a webhook integration. Persistent notifications and acknowledgement requirements ensure that issues will be handled before it is too late.

 Integration Capabilities
