FireHydrant vs VictorOps: What are the differences?
FireHydrant: A simple incident response tool. FireHydrant allows you to maintain an organized log of incidents, the events that occurred during them, and integrations to lift information to the surface that matters; VictorOps: We make on-call suck less & help teams to solve problems faster. VictorOps is a real-time incident management platform that combines the power of people and data to embolden DevOps teams so they can handle incidents as they occur and prepare for the next one.
FireHydrant and VictorOps belong to "Monitoring Aggregation" category of the tech stack.
Some of the features offered by FireHydrant are:
- Incidents - Tie Incidents to components and start keeping track with notes, milestones, and Slack messages. We’ll keep everything organized for when you head into your post mortem.
- Components - Have an API and a Web UI? Add them to FireHydrant as components. Organize your incidents by the components you provide in your application. You can quickly find previous incidents for them too. Components make it easy to report on which things fail the most.
- Slack - We have a deep integration with Slack that allows you to quickly create Incidents, add notes and milestones, and coordinate response. You get an incident specific channel automatically that allows you and your team to coordinate response to any incident on FireHydrant.
On the other hand, VictorOps provides the following key features:
- On-call schedule management - easily set up rotations, teams & escalation policies
- Collaborative problem-solving - get the right eyes on the problem quickly
