How Delta Dental Transformed On-Call Operations and Cut False Alerts by 50%

The Challenge

False-positive NOC alerts from OpsGenie regularly disrupted engineers’ sleep, causing fatigue and decreased productivity. Low-priority ConnectWise tickets triggered the same urgency as critical P1 incidents.

After-Hours Disruption

False-positive alerts waking engineers overnight, causing sleep deprivation and burnout across the team.

Limited Integration Control

Insufficient customization options in ConnectWise ticket escalation workflows and filtering capabilities.

Manual Phone Routing

Weekly manual updates to on-call phone schedules consuming valuable administrative time and introducing errors.

Delayed Critical Response

Missed or slow responses to genuine P1 events buried among false alarms and miscategorized tickets.

Revolutionizing Operations with AlertOps

AlertOps became the middleware between monitoring tools, ticketing systems, and response teams with custom API roles in ConnectWise for precise alert control and multi-channel routing.

ConnectWise API Configuration

Custom API roles and authentication established for secure, granular ticket access and workflow automation.

Priority-Based Filtering

Intelligent rules filter only P1 and P2 tickets, with client-based grouping for contextual alert delivery.

Multi-Channel Routing

Voice, SMS, and Teams notifications configured based on severity levels and engineer preferences.

Schedule Automation

On-call rotations fully automated with seamless handoffs and coverage gap prevention.

“AlertOps eliminated alert fatigue and gave our engineers their nights back – going live in under 24 hours and cutting false-positive alerts in half within the first month.”
