In today's fast-paced world, seizing every moment is essential for operational success, minimizing downtime, and skillfully handling incidents. Introducing the PagerDuty Extension for Zoho Cliq, a powerful solution that streamlines incident management directly within your communication platform.

Let's examine how this integration effectively manages incidents using an enterprise-grade incident management platform that builds resilience over time.

Why does this integration matter?

Imagine you're a business juggling between multiple services, customers, and deadlines. An unanticipated outage can turn everything into chaos. What you need is:
  • Faster Incident Resolution: The ability to receive real-time bot calls that take immediate action reduces outage and ensures quick service restoration. This is particularly valuable for businesses operating in industries where each second counts, such as healthcare or e-commerce.
  • Improved Team Collaboration: Centralizing incident management within Zoho Cliq allows teams to discuss, strategize, and resolve issues without the need to switch between multiple tools. This approach enhances productivity and minimizes the risk of miscommunication.
  • Data-Driven Decision Making: Service insights enable businesses to analyze incident trends, identify recurring issues, and implement preventive measures. Over time, this practice reduces the frequency of incidents and optimizes service reliability.
  • Increased Customer Satisfaction: Faster resolution times and improved service reliability translate to better customer experiences, strengthening trust and loyalty.  

Trigger, view, and manage incidents

Incident response is an organized approach to addressing and managing an incident. The goal isn't just to solve the incident but to handle the situation to limit damage and reduce recovery time and costs.


  • With the PagerDuty extension, you can quickly view, manage, and monitor incidents directly from the PagerDuty Widget under the Incidents tab, with details like title, urgency, and assignee.
  • Take immediate action by resolving, reassigning, or adding notes to incidents and filtering them based on status for better focus. You can seamlessly switch between services to handle incidents across different teams or projects.
  • Use the /viewincidents slash command to access your incident list in any chat instantly.
Incidents are triggered when an active service (on-call, not disabled, or in maintenance mode) receives an event. They escalate automatically based on the service’s escalation policy, ensuring swift and efficient resolution.
  • Zoho Cliq offers multiple convenient ways to create and trigger incidents! Use the "Create Incident" button in the Incidents tab, transform messages into incidents with the Create Incident message action, or leverage the /incident slash command and Create Incident bot menu action. Simply fill in key details like title, impacted service, assignee, priority, urgency, and description.

Bot Calls


Centralize alerts to improve response times by keeping teams connected and proactive during critical incidents. This can be achieved by mapping Cliq channels to services and enabling bot call alerts. Designate specific users to receive instant notifications. When an incident is triggered, the assigned user will receive an immediate bot call with an automated explanation of the outage that includes the title and nature of the incident.

During the call, engineers can quickly take action using intuitive buttons:
  • Acknowledge: Confirm that you've received the alert and are on it!
  • Resolve: Harness the opportunity to tackle and resolve the incident in real-time, cutting down response time significantly.
  • Reassign: If the situation is urgent or the assigned engineer is engaged, you can escalate the alert to senior engineers or reassign it to someone available.


Track and Visualize Service Insights

  • Rapidly monitor service performance and incident trends in the PagerDuty Widget under the Service Insights tab.
  • Essential metrics are displayed in vibrant bar or line graphs, making it easy to grasp service performance. Additionally, you can filter insights by specific dates or compare services to spot trends and identify improvement areas!
  • Track the entire service lifecycle across different services by analyzing incident statuses alongside Priority, Urgency, and Severity. 

The PagerDuty extension for Zoho Cliq would be an essential lifeline for businesses aiming to thrive in today's digital age. From instant alerts to powerful insights, it's a bundle for proactive, precautious and preventive incident management.

Instead of merely reacting to incidents, you can stay ahead of them with Zoho Cliq.
