Spike review

Spike ranks eighth and is the cheapest paid option here. Standard costs $7 per user a month billed monthly, and annual billing gives a month free. It is aimed at small teams setting up their first rotation and includes on-call scheduling, 100 phone and SMS alerts a month shared across the account, WhatsApp and Telegram alerts, ChatOps with Slack and Discord, limited live call routing and a status page. Business at $14 per user adds unlimited phone and SMS alerts, multiple teams, unlimited live call routing, triggers for external scripts, incident context, Jira, ClickUp and Linear integrations and video war rooms. Enterprise adds SAML single sign-on and a dedicated support channel. Spike is less complete than incident.io, Rootly or PagerDuty for running and reviewing large incidents, but it covers the core of paging the right person quickly. There is no free plan; a 14-day trial is offered on both paid plans.
