A multi-billion-dollar, global leader
in SaaS-based and on-premise software solutions that power innovative digital experiences.
The Customer
A global giant in digital experience solutions was looking to replace their internal tool that was used for handling incidents such as outages, service degradation, data center connection loss, and more.
The incumbent tool was neither designed for incident management nor could facilitate the kind of collaboration that was required for assuring speed, clarity, and efficacy.
With a mission to enhance collaboration among internal and external teams, streamline incident related processes, and accelerate resolutions, the company set out to find the right solution for its needs.
The Need
Why Exigence
Led by the Regional Head of Reliability Engineering, whose teams oversee service management, change management, and incident management, the organization selected Exigence, as it was the only platform with:
​
​
-
Incident management-centric functionality
-
An easy-to-use interface
-
An intuitive and rich situation room that provides visibility into every aspect of the incident
-
Multiple out-of-the-box integrations, including Slack, Jira, conferencing, and other internal systems
​
We evaluated three solutions, including Exigence. The other two were eliminated rather quickly. Right after the demo, we saw that these tools were meant for managing events and alerts.
They were far from being incident management-centric and driven like Exigence, despite their claims.
Collaboration excellence
One of the most important decision-making factors in selecting Exigence was the high levels of collaboration that the platform enables before, during, and after incident handling is launched.
Before
Instead of wasting ten minutes chasing and calling each person, all you need to do is to send a link to the Exigence Situation Room.
In two clicks, everyone who needs to be brought in and up to speed is there and in the know. When you’ve got 20 people on the team - that’s a lot of time you can save, freeing you up to focus on the fix instead of the chase.
During
Exigence enables incident handlers to easily upload graphs, images, logs, customer complaints, and any other related file directly to the Exigence Timeline, for easy documentation and access.
After
Once an incident is resolved, the incident handler’s job is not done. Relevant stakeholders hold review meetings to carefully go through all the documentation and reports, to understand what went well, what didn’t, and to gain insights for handling forthcoming incidents.
Without Exigence, the company would have to compile many different files, including PDFs, slide decks, spreadsheets, and more, from multiple sources to learn exactly what happened and present findings during reviews.
With Exigence, all the files and updates are in one place, transforming an arduous, time consuming, manual task into one that is effortless and automated.
Sure, you can always upload files and updates to Slack and chat rooms. But then you have to scroll and scroll and hope to find what you’re looking for. With Exigence all you need is right there at your fingertips, giving you all the clarity you need, whenever you need it.
Management is very happy because now we have a single pane of glass for accessing all the information they need.
