Ping Parrot

Alerts that repeat until someone acknowledges them

Ping Parrot (PingParrot) sends critical alerts to on-call teams and keeps repeating them until someone acknowledges the page, then escalates to the next person if nobody does. Alerts go out over push, email, SMS, and voice, and the iOS and Android apps use Apple's Critical Alerts entitlement to break through silent mode and Do Not Disturb. The default repeat interval is 30 seconds.

Beyond paging, the service includes on-call scheduling with an at-a-glance view of who is covering, escalation policies, email fallback, and an API for connecting the tools you already use. The site positions it as an alternative to PagerDuty, OpsGenie, BetterStack, Splunk On-Call, and similar products, with comparison pages for each, and it targets DevOps and SRE teams, IT and MSP teams, healthcare, and even families. Its tags in this directory cover alerting, incident response, escalation policies, and on-call management under the Coding & Development category.

Pricing follows a freemium model: three pagers are free forever with no credit card required, and paid plans come with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Sign up free with three devices to test the repeating alerts before moving your whole team over.
