That's super true of PagerDuty. It's a pretty good product and cheap when you only have a few people on it. However, the jump from the basic license to the next tier is HUGE and any add-ons you might need (ie. webhook triggers) bump the price up even more. Just having a simple monitoring solution with >10 people could cost you $100's a month.

That said, every other product in this space is crap. I'm not sure why though. This seems like a pretty good market for disruption. Maybe there is some hidden "problem" that I don't know about.

PagerDuty is extremely expensive and I decided to disrupt the market a little bit by creating All Quiet: You might want to check it out: https://allquiet.app

what's your take on xMatters?

My take on xmatters is that it gives you some building blocks to build a decent paging system, and has a fair amount of flexibility, but many things that work out of the box, or with a little bit of configuration in PagerDuty require a non-trivial amount of work in xmatters to set up. And you will likely run into limitations.
