The solution bridges IT Alerting and RBA to allow organizations to quickly engage IT experts and on-call teams so they can respond to critical issues faster, reducing the mean time to fix and automate manual and repetitive tasks, and decreasing the overall time to resolution even further by eliminating the period between receiving an alert and executing the remediation action.   Everbridge IT Alerting enables operational teams to remain fully in control over IT task automation by embedding human decision points within workflows. Using bi-directional communications, one can remotely control the advancement or execution of any step within a process, such as re-starting a server. Remote communications can be performed via SMS, IM, email, or phone.   “By combining Everbridge’s Smart Orchestration technology and self-service integration capabilities along with Ayehu’s platform, we bring the power of AI and analytics to our customers to optimize information flow and to rapidly execute end-to-end incident response management processes,” said Prashant Darisi, Vice President of Product Management, IT Alerting/IoT at Everbridge.
