Incidents are Inevitable
And we help you resolve them faster
How Spike deals with incidents
Keeping Incidents at Bay, 24/7
When an incident occurs, Spike intelligently determines whether it's a new or repeated incident, guaranteeing that every alert you get is relevant. Our system automatically groups repeated incidents to suppress unnecessary alerts, allowing you to focus solely on genuine issues.
With Spike, you can be confident that you’ll only be alerted when it's absolutely necessary.
Auto Resolve incidents
Spike's integrations with your existing systems enable automatic detection of when an incident has returned to normal operations. Utilize the auto-resolve feature to automate the handling of common incidents, streamlining your response process.
Pro Tip: Additionally, you can add a wait time in escalations or utilize automation with playbooks to trigger external scripts and allow the incident to auto-resolve. All this happens in the background, transforming this into a self-healing incident resolution system.

Repeated incidents
Spike detects repeated incidents for every incident. This enables you to intervene promptly. Stay ahead by addressing warnings before they develop into critical incidents. Additionally, each incident automatically triggers a severity assessment, categorizing them as SEV1 - High, SEV2 - Medium, or SEV3 - Low.
