New sales stopped on June 4, 2025, and the platform will be completely offline by April 5, 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As an OpsGenie user, you now face a critical decision: Migrate to Jira Service Management (JSM), Atlassian&#8217;s recommended path, or choose a different solution. And if you&#8217;re not sure JSM is the right fit for your team&#8217;s alerting needs, this review will help you decide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I signed up for JSM and put it through real-world testing. I created an email integration, designed an escalation policy, and triggered test alerts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then, I reviewed JSM&#8217;s alerting capabilities across 5 key criteria. You&#8217;ll discover them as you read on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For each criterion, I shared what I liked and what I didn&#8217;t. This gives you a balanced look at JSM&#8217;s alerting features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As you finish reading this review, you&#8217;ll know if JSM fits your team&#8217;s needs. If you decide JSM isn&#8217;t right for you, I&#8217;ve also included an alternative that might suit you better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let&#8217;s dive in!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Table of Contents<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<nav aria-label=\"Table of Contents\" class=\"wp-block-table-of-contents\"><ol><li><a class=\"wp-block-table-of-contents__entry\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/jsm-review-for-alerting\/#my-alerting-criteria-for-evaluating-jira-service-management-jsm\">My Alerting Criteria for Evaluating Jira Service Management (JSM)<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"wp-block-table-of-contents__entry\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/jsm-review-for-alerting\/#jira-service-management-jsm-review-for-alerting\">Jira Service Management (JSM) Review for Alerting<\/a><ol><li><a class=\"wp-block-table-of-contents__entry\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/jsm-review-for-alerting\/#1-control-over-alerts\">1.

Does it offer only individual-level control, only team-level control, or both?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Setup and Configuration:<\/strong> This covers getting started. How fast can you add contact methods, create a service, connect an integration, and design an <a href=\"https:\/\/spike.sh\/blog\/escalation-policies-everything-you-need-to-know\/\">escalation policy<\/a>?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Alert Channels:<\/strong> I compared key channels like phone calls, SMS, email, push, and Slack. How rich is the information in each alert? What actions can you take directly from an alert?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>On-Call Handoff Notifications:<\/strong> This focuses on notifications for <a href=\"https:\/\/spike.sh\/glossary\/on-call-shift\/\">on-call shift<\/a> changes. I checked how easy and flexible it is to get notifications when your on-call duty starts or ends.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Alert Fatigue Handling:<\/strong> This is about cutting down on <a href=\"https:\/\/spike.sh\/glossary\/alert-noise\/\">noise<\/a>. I looked at what options JSM provides to help prevent team burnout.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"jira-service-management-jsm-review-for-alerting\">Jira Service Management (JSM) Review for Alerting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes has-x-small-font-size\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Criteria<\/th><th>What I liked<\/th><th>What I didn&#8217;t like<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Control Over Alerts<\/td><td>Dual control at both team and individual levels<\/td><td>Can&#8217;t specify how alerts are delivered in escalation policies<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Setup and Configuration<\/td><td>Extra notify options like next\/previous member on rotation, repeat escalation with customization<\/td><td>Contact methods felt nested in UI, Slack setup requires multiple steps<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Alert Channels<\/td><td>Multi-channel alerts with phone, SMS, email, push, and Slack<\/td><td>Can&#8217;t reply to emails to take action, alerts go to single Slack channel<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>On-Call Handoff Notifications<\/td><td>Individual shift notifications work through personal preferences<\/td><td>No team-level Slack\/Teams channel notifications, no webhook automation<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Alert Fatigue Handling<\/td><td>Notification Policies and Alert Policies for suppression<\/td><td>No ready-to-use templates, no work-life balance features<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-control-over-alerts\">1. Control Over Alerts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">JSM offers dual control over alerts, just like OpsGenie. You can set individual notification preferences and create team-level escalation policies. Each escalation step lets you define when to send notifications, time delays, and who to notify.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-i-liked\">What I liked<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I liked that JSM gives you both individual and team control. Users can set their own notification rules for different situations. Teams can build escalation policies that route alerts to specific people, <a href=\"https:\/\/spike.sh\/blog\/oncall-schedules-everything-you-need-to-know\/\">on-call schedules<\/a>, or entire teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"792\" height=\"498\" data-attachment-id=\"3855\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/jsm-review-for-alerting\/image-44\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-12.png\" data-orig-size=\"792,498\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"image\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-12.png\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-12.png\" alt=\"Setting individual notification preferences in JSM\" class=\"wp-image-3855\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-12.png 792w, https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-12-300x189.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-12-768x483.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 792px) 100vw, 792px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Setting individual notification preferences in JSM<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"887\" height=\"554\" data-attachment-id=\"3872\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/jsm-review-for-alerting\/cleanshot-2025-10-29-at-22-40-27\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/CleanShot-2025-10-29-at-22.40.27.png\" data-orig-size=\"887,554\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"CleanShot 2025-10-29 at 22.40.27\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/CleanShot-2025-10-29-at-22.40.27.png\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/CleanShot-2025-10-29-at-22.40.27.png\" alt=\"Team-level control over alerts (routing alerts to specific people, on-call schedules, or entire teams)\" class=\"wp-image-3872\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/CleanShot-2025-10-29-at-22.40.27.png 887w, https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/CleanShot-2025-10-29-at-22.40.27-300x187.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/CleanShot-2025-10-29-at-22.40.27-768x480.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 887px) 100vw, 887px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Team-level control over alerts (routing alerts to specific people, on-call schedules, or entire teams)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-i-didn-t-like\">What I didn&#8217;t like<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can&#8217;t specify how someone gets alerted in the escalation policy. You can tell JSM to alert a user, but not whether that should be a phone call or SMS. That decision lives in the user&#8217;s personal settings, which limits team-level customization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"466\" data-attachment-id=\"3857\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/jsm-review-for-alerting\/image-45\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-13.png\" data-orig-size=\"768,466\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"image\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-13.png\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-13.png\" alt=\"No option to specify how the user should be alerted (like via phone or SMS)\" class=\"wp-image-3857\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-13.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-13-300x182.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">No option to specify how the user should be alerted (like via phone or SMS)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-setup-and-configuration\">2. Setup and Configuration<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">JSM follows the same contact method setup as OpsGenie. You add email, phone numbers for calls and SMS, and mobile push notifications. However, JSM\u2019s interface felt a bit nested. It took me some time to find where to add contact methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Slack setup requires multiple steps. You go to Teams, select your team, add integration, choose Slack, then pick a channel. It&#8217;s not as direct as adding an email or phone number. Service and integration setup work the same as OpsGenie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-i-liked-1\">What I liked<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">JSM adds more options for escalation policies than OpsGenie. You can notify the next member on <a href=\"https:\/\/spike.sh\/glossary\/oncall-rotation\/\">rotation<\/a>, the previous member, or a random team member. JSM also adds repeat escalation with customizations like time delay, maximum repetitions, and automatic alert closure when repeats finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"373\" data-attachment-id=\"3859\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/jsm-review-for-alerting\/image-46\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-14.png\" data-orig-size=\"768,373\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"image\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-14.png\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-14.png\" alt=\"Repeat escalation and other customization in JSM\" class=\"wp-image-3859\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-14.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-14-300x146.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Repeat escalation and other customization in JSM<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-i-didn-t-like-1\">What I didn&#8217;t like<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Contact methods aren&#8217;t obvious in the interface. Slack configuration requires extra steps instead of a direct setup. The delay time in escalation policies is not relative and requires you to count from the top, which adds mental overhead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"732\" height=\"384\" data-attachment-id=\"3870\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/jsm-review-for-alerting\/cleanshot-2025-10-29-at-22-38-46\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/CleanShot-2025-10-29-at-22.38.46.png\" data-orig-size=\"732,384\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"CleanShot 2025-10-29 at 22.38.46\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/CleanShot-2025-10-29-at-22.38.46.png\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/CleanShot-2025-10-29-at-22.38.46.png\" alt=\"No relative delay time in escalation policy (JSM)\" class=\"wp-image-3870\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/CleanShot-2025-10-29-at-22.38.46.png 732w, https:\/\/blog.spike.sh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/CleanShot-2025-10-29-at-22.38.46-300x157.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 732px) 100vw, 732px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">No relative delay time in escalation policy (JSM)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-alert-channels\">3. Alert Channels<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">JSM delivers alerts across all standard channels: phone, SMS, email, mobile push, and Slack. Phone call alerts reveal the alert title. You get dial pad options to hear the description, close the alert, <a href=\"https:\/\/spike.sh\/glossary\/acknowledge\/\">acknowledge<\/a> it, or escalate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SMS messages include the alert title, a link to the alert, and the alert ID.

If you have 10 people on rotation, each person gets their own personal notification. There&#8217;s no team-level visibility. JSM also doesn&#8217;t support <a href=\"https:\/\/spike.sh\/glossary\/webhook\/\">webhook<\/a> triggers when shifts change, so you can&#8217;t automate tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"5-alert-fatigue-handling\">5. Alert Fatigue Handling<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">JSM handles <a href=\"https:\/\/spike.sh\/glossary\/alert-fatigue\/\">alert fatigue<\/a> the same way OpsGenie does. You get automatic <a href=\"https:\/\/spike.sh\/glossary\/alert-deduplication\/\">deduplication<\/a> through alias fields, <a href=\"https:\/\/spike.sh\/glossary\/alert-grouping\/\">grouping<\/a> through tags and <a href=\"https:\/\/spike.sh\/glossary\/alert-routing\/\">routing<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/spike.sh\/glossary\/alert-suppression\/\">suppression<\/a> through integration rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">JSM adds Notification Policies, where you can delay or turn off alerts based on time or deduplication count. You can also use Alert Policies to decide which alerts get created in the first place. This gives you another way to suppress unnecessary alerts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-i-liked-4\">What I liked<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Notification Policies and Alert Policies offer good options to control alert noise.

You have to build everything from scratch. There are no built-in work-life balance features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"so-should-you-consider-jira-service-management-jsm-for-alerting\">So, Should You Consider Jira Service Management (JSM) for Alerting?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">JSM gets the core of alerting right. The setup mirrors OpsGenie, and it gives both individual and team control over alerts. The alert channels are solid, especially the Slack integration with multiple action options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, JSM has some notable gaps. You can&#8217;t customize how alerts are delivered at the team level. Email alerts don&#8217;t support replies for actions. On-call shift notifications lack team-level visibility and webhook automation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The interface feels nested, and Slack configuration requires extra steps. The delay time in escalation policies requires you to calculate from the top instead of using relative timing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pick JSM only if these gaps don&#8217;t matter to your workflow. Otherwise, there&#8217;s a better alternative that fills the gaps JSM leaves behind, offers more flexibility, and comes at a lower cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"spike-a-better-jira-service-management-jsm-alternative-for-alerting\">Spike: A Better Jira Service Management (JSM) Alternative for Alerting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5CTpqU70u60?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-GB&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"http:\/\/spike.sh\">Spike<\/a> is a modern incident management platform that includes powerful <a href=\"https:\/\/spike.sh\/alerts\">alerting<\/a> features.

However, the gaps show up when you need delivery-level control in escalation policies, email reply actions, team-level shift notifications, or webhook automation for on-call changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The nested interface and multi-step Slack setup add friction. Relative delay timing is missing, which makes the escalation setup more complex than it needs to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"http:\/\/spike.sh\">Spike<\/a> fills these gaps with dual control at both policy and individual levels, email replies, multiple Slack channels, relative timing, webhook triggers, and work-life balance features. It&#8217;s a complete alerting solution for teams of any size, at a fraction of JSM&#8217;s price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With OpsGenie shutting down completely by April 2027, now is the time to test your options. This lets you move on your own terms. And if you want a flexible tool that simplifies alerting, <a href=\"http:\/\/app.spike.sh\/signup\">Spike<\/a> is worth a look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-ee856660 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-midnight-gradient-background has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/spike.sh\/opsgenie-alternative\">Switch to Spike and get 50% off<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As OpsGenie sunsets, is JSM the answer?
