Install the Slack app that gets your first on-call rotation live in one setup session
OnCallManager helps teams publish rotations, keep the current owner obvious, handle swaps, and sync calendars without sending responders to another dashboard.
Opens Slack's secure install screen. No credit card required to start the trial.
Clear current owner
Keep the active responder and next handoff visible in Slack.
Fast schedule changes
Handle PTO, swaps, and overrides without spreadsheet cleanup.
Slack-first workflow
Teams install once and manage rotations where incidents already happen.
Make the install decision easy: one Slack app, clear ownership, predictable pricing
The page answers the questions engineers usually ask before installing: what happens next, how fast setup is, whether another dashboard is involved, and how much the product costs after the trial.
Built for Slack first
Create, publish, and review rotations in the workspace your responders already watch all day.
Adjust without cleanup
Overrides and swaps keep the current owner accurate, so the right person is obvious during incidents.
Flat pricing that stays simple
$50/month after the 14-day free trial for unlimited users and unlimited rotations.
Go from install to a live rotation without a long implementation project
Keep the first launch small: install the app, create one rotation, and let the team see who owns on-call now. Advanced features can wait until after the schedule is already working.
Install in Slack
Click Add to Slack, choose the workspace, and finish Slack's authorization flow.
Create the first rotation
Add members, pick the cadence, preview the handoff order, and publish the schedule from the app home.
Turn on optional extras
Add reminders, Google Calendar sync, and AI answering after the core ownership workflow is live.
Keep setup small on day one
The install only needs to prove one thing fast: who is on-call right now.
- Start with one team and one rotation instead of migrating everything at once.
- Let responders see the current owner in Slack before adding extra process.
- Connect Google Calendar and AI knowledge later without changing the install flow.
Core features that make the install worth it on day one
Focused on the parts of on-call coordination that engineering teams need most: clear ownership, easier schedule changes, and less tool switching.
Rotation publishing
Create recurring schedules and make the current owner obvious without leaving Slack.
Shift overrides
Handle vacations, swaps, and emergency coverage changes without losing track of who is responsible.
Reminders and calendar sync
Notify the right people before handoffs and optionally keep personal calendars up to date.
AI answers from team context
Later, connect Google Docs and let the app answer operational questions using team knowledge already captured in Slack.
What teams are leaving behind
Spreadsheet schedules and extra dashboards slow down the install decision
- Another tool to learn before the team can see who owns on-call right now.
- Manual schedule updates every time PTO, swaps, or overrides happen.
- Per-seat pricing that grows faster than the actual scheduling problem.
What Slack-first setup looks like
Install once, publish the schedule, and let Slack stay the source of truth
- The app lives in Slack, so responders do not need a separate on-call dashboard.
- Overrides keep the current owner accurate when real-world coverage changes happen.
- Pricing stays predictable at $50/month after the trial, with unlimited users and rotations.
Questions teams ask before they install
Straight answers to the objections that usually block an install from a paid campaign landing page.
Slack shows the standard workspace authorization screen first. After that, you land in OnCallManager, create your first rotation, and publish it in Slack so the current owner and next handoff are immediately visible.
Most teams can install the app and create their first live rotation in about 3 minutes. You can keep day one simple with one team and one schedule, then add calendar sync or AI features later.
No. OnCallManager starts with a 14-day free trial and does not require a credit card to begin the install or publish your first rotation.
Yes. OnCallManager supports overrides so schedule changes do not turn into manual spreadsheet cleanup. The active owner stays accurate in Slack even when the plan changes.
Yes. Google Calendar sync is available after install, so responders can see on-call shifts alongside the rest of their schedule without changing the initial setup flow.
Pricing is a flat $50/month for unlimited users and unlimited rotations. There is no per-seat pricing, which keeps the decision easier for growing engineering teams.
Get your first rotation live without adding another ops dashboard
Click Add to Slack, approve the install, and create the first schedule in the workspace your team already uses every day.
No credit card required to start. Publish one live rotation first, then expand from there.
