Managing services is hard for both service owners and stakeholders. To make things easier for everyone, define a clear set of expectations from the beginning. This helps measure and evaluate the health of services easier.

The Incident Command Center (ICC) empowers your organization to command, control, and coordinate incident response without having to leave the OpsGenie app. With the ever-expanding demand for always-on services, increasing uptime is just as critical. Streamlining incident response leads to faster resolution of issues and less headaches for your customer.

Today we are delighted to announce that Atlassian has entered into an agreement to acquire OpsGenie. Six years ago, my co-founders and I recognized that always-on services were becoming commonplace, customers’ expectations were growing, and service disruptions had increased potential to impact a company’s revenue and reputation. As a result, the pressure on IT professionals was changing, but the tools to help them stay aware and in control of issues were not.

Think about the last time you or someone at your company found an error or technical issue with a critical system at work. Did you know immediately how to report that issue? Did you know who on the team was the right person to communicate the issue to? Often, employees have no idea how to answer these questions. They lack context and access to the right tools to take action themselves.
