IncidentRelay vs Runframe

IncidentRelay is open-source software for self-hosted on-call management and incident response. It routes incoming alerts by source, labels, severity, and team ownership, then applies team rules and escalation policies. Teams can manage schedules, shifts, rotations, overrides, and escalation chains; responders can acknowledge, resolve, silence, or escalate alerts and temporarily shelve alert groups. Versioned event rules can enrich, group, route, suppress, and automate events, with execution history showing matches and results. Documented inputs include Alertmanager, AWS SNS and CloudWatch, Grafana, Datadog, Azure Monitor, Zabbix, Sentry, LibreNMS, PagerDuty Events API v2, RMON, heartbeats, and webhooks. Notifications include chat services, email, voice calls, outbound webhooks, and browser/PWA push. The automation interface provides Swagger UI, OpenAPI JSON, route-intake tokens, and personal API tokens. On-call calendars can be exported through CalDAV and ICS. Deployment options include Docker Compose, Kubernetes with Helm, RPM packages, and manual systemd installation. The IncidentRelay plan costs nothing; it is open-source and self-hosted.

Runframe is incident management software for engineering teams, covering on-call schedules, escalations, incident response, postmortems, and status pages. Rotations can run daily, weekly, biweekly, or monthly, with engineer-managed swaps and overrides. The service tracks cumulative on-call hours and reports load imbalances. Users can page a rotation member or search for a teammate, notifying them through Slack, email, or phone. Incoming alerts from listed sources can create incidents, set severity, page the on-call engineer, and start a timeline automatically. Teams coordinate response in Slack or the web dashboard and track postmortem action items. Integrations include Slack, Datadog, Sentry, Prometheus, CloudWatch, Google Meet, Zoom, Jira, Linear, email intake, and generic webhooks. Security controls include SAML SSO, SCIM, MFA enforcement, role-based access, audit logs, API keys, and service accounts. Runframe offers a Free plan at free, Growth at $12 per user per month billed annually, and Scale at $25 per user per month billed annually.
