# Opsgenie is shutting down. Move on-call to Spectate.

> Opsgenie support ends on 5 April 2027. Spectate gives you on-call rotations, escalation paths, phone calls and incidents, plus the monitoring and status pages, without moving into Jira.

**Opsgenie** (https://www.atlassian.com/software/opsgenie, Australia (Atlassian, Sydney), Atlassian): Opsgenie is Atlassian's alerting and on-call product. Atlassian stopped selling it on 4 June 2025 and ends support on 5 April 2027, when access shuts off and data that wasn't migrated is deleted. Atlassian points customers to Jira Service Management.

**Opsgenie pricing:** Opsgenie is no longer sold to new customers (end of sale 4 June 2025). Existing plans were Essentials $11.55, Standard $24.15 and Enterprise $38.50 per user a month ($9.45, $19.95 and $31.90 billed yearly); support ends 5 April 2027 (checked October 2026).

**Spectate pricing:** Starter €0.75 per monitor (from €15 a month), Team €0.60 per monitor (from €48 a month), Business €0.50 per monitor (from €125 a month); whole team included from Team. Prices exclude VAT.

## Which one to choose

Choose Spectate when:

- You want to leave Opsgenie for a standalone on-call tool, not move into Jira Service Management.
- You want on-call for your whole team without per-user licences.
- You want uptime, DNS, mail and server monitoring next to on-call.
- You want status pages with subscribers and custom domains included.

Choose Opsgenie when:

- You already use Jira Service Management: Atlassian's own migration path keeps alerts, on-call and incidents next to your tickets.
- You need Atlassian's in-app migration tool to carry over schedules and history automatically.
- You need SSO, a public API and Atlassian's compliance programme.

## Switching from Opsgenie

1. Start a 14-day trial; no card needed. It runs on Team, with on-call schedules and escalation paths.
2. Recreate your schedules (rotations, handoff times, overrides) and escalation paths. There is no Opsgenie importer; help@spectate.net can help with larger setups.
3. Point your monitoring at Spectate: add uptime monitors, or send Grafana, Prometheus Alertmanager, Sentry or webhook alerts to an alert source.
4. Have everyone add a phone number and connect Slack or Telegram, then run both side by side until you switch off Opsgenie, well before 5 April 2027.

## Frequently asked questions

### When does Opsgenie shut down?

Atlassian stopped selling Opsgenie on 4 June 2025. Support ends on 5 April 2027: access shuts off and data that wasn't migrated is deleted. Renewals are only possible for terms that end before that date.

### Where should I migrate from Opsgenie?

Atlassian recommends Jira Service Management. If you don't want to move into Jira, a standalone tool such as Spectate covers on-call, escalation, phone alerts and incidents, plus uptime monitoring and status pages.

### Can I import my Opsgenie schedules into Spectate?

There is no importer. Schedules, overrides and escalation paths take a few minutes each to recreate, and help@spectate.net can help you move a larger setup.

### Is Spectate cheaper than Opsgenie?

For five responders, yes: Spectate Team is €48 a month for unlimited members and includes 80 monitors, against $120.75 a month for five users on Opsgenie Standard. Opsgenie can't be bought by new customers anymore.

### Does Spectate wake people up like Opsgenie?

Yes. Spectate pages whoever is on call by email, SMS and phone call, and they press 1 to acknowledge. Acknowledging stops the escalation; otherwise it moves to the next step.
