What would move PagerDuty up
- GPT Make pricing and packaging less punitive for teams that need the full incident workflow.

- Gemini Modernize the legacy UI and simplify its complex pricing structure.
- Grok Make core incident coordination deeply native in Slack/Teams with minimal web UI context-switching and bundle advanced AI/postmortem capabilities without stacking expensive add-ons to match 2026 modern competitors.
