Organizations are available on Pro and Enterprise plans.

​
Key Features of Organizations

  • Role-Based Access Control: Organization Memberships feature two main roles:

    • Administrator Organization Administrators are automatically Team Administrators in all Teams belonging to the organization. This means they can also manage all users of the organization’s teams. Also they can create overarching policies, such as routing to teams.
    • Owner Organization Owners additionally have exclusive rights to manage the organization itself, including member roles and organization settings.

  • Enhanced Incident Routing: Organizations enable sophisticated routing mechanisms that allow incidents to be dynamically assigned to different teams within the organization, enhancing responsiveness and incident handling. Incidents can be auto-escalated to additional teams using the “Assign to Team” routing rule. Alternatively, you can manually change the team or add additional teams to an incident using the “Assign” action.

​
Benefits of Using Organizations

Organizations are designed to offer advanced team management and coordination capabilities:

  • Centralized Management: Simplify the administration of multiple teams by centralizing management tasks under one organization.
  • Scalable Team Dynamics: As your team or business grows, Organizations make it easier to scale management and operational processes without compromising on efficiency or oversight.

​
Should I Use Organizations?

While Organizations offer powerful features for team management and coordination, they are an advanced feature:

  • Optional, Not Required: Utilizing Organizations is not mandatory to achieve full functionality in All Quiet. They are optional and suitable for users who require advanced management capabilities.
  • Ideal for Multiple Teams: Organizations are best suited for scenarios involving management of multiple teams, providing tools to streamline administration and incident management.
  • Consider Your Needs: It is important to assess whether your current or anticipated team dynamics necessitate the advanced coordination capabilities that Organizations provide. E.g. organizations allow you to share one outbound integration amongst several teams. This allows you to send incidents from differenet teams within your org to the same slack channel, using the same integration.

​
What’s the difference between Organization & Team Memberships?

At All Quiet, Team and Organization Memberships are independent of each other.

Users with Organization Memberships have Administrator rights for all teams within the organization, allowing them to edit teams and their integrations. However, they are not part of any schedules, escalations, or rotations, meaning they are never on-call. To include a user in a team’s on-call escalations, assign them a specific Team Membership in addition to their Organization Membership.

Organization Members are not billed. Billing is based on the number of unique users with Team Memberships across all teams. You can view all billed users under “Billing & Subscription > Your current usage”.
