Generative AI is forecasted to have a massive impact on the economy. These headlines are driving software teams to rapidly consider how they can incorporate generative AI into their software, or risk falling behind in a sea-change of disruption. But in the froth of a disruptive technology, there’s also high risk of wasted investment and lost customer trust.

Today is an important day for us at PagerDuty, and for the larger ecosystem of incident management. We’ve signed a definitive agreement to acquire Jeli, a standout player in the incident management space. This deal represents a strategic alignment of visions, technologies and goals that will have a lasting impact on the industry and our customers.

Effective incident response plays a critical role in maintaining smooth operations at organizations of all sizes. When built up correctly, operational resilience–that ability to bounce back quickly after failure–can act as a shield that guards your customer experience, ensuring that even when incidents inevitably happen, you’re back online in no time.

Across the business landscape, 2023 has been called the “year of efficiency.” Organizations have had to deliver more growth and innovation, but with tighter budgets and headcount than in prior years. CIOs have needed to build strategies to mitigate the risk of operational failure and protect their brand’s customer experience.

Many PagerDuty customers create their own apps to help them manage their PagerDuty environments. Teams might have any number of workflows that might benefit from a custom application. A PagerDuty admin might want to be able to load CSV files with new users and their contact information into PagerDuty when new teams join the platform, or load new services before they are released to production.

At PagerDuty, our purpose is to empower teams with the time and efficiency to build the future. That means that our own teams are constantly building and relentlessly innovating to help organizations drive transformative change in the way they operate.

In today’s fast-paced, digital-first landscape, delivering exceptional customer experience is paramount to business success. For customer service teams, that means maintaining service level agreements (SLAs) and ensuring swift responses to customer issues that can make or break your company’s reputation. Fortunately, PagerDuty has improved the way companies handle customer service teams and has built applications into ServiceNow’s CSM platform.
