“Demand for PagerDuty’s products and services is accelerating as digital has transformed the way organisations do business and interact with customers,” said Howard Wilson, chief commercial officer at PagerDuty. “Expansion in APJ is incredibly encouraging and our Sydney presence is a strong foundation to support the wider APJ region. Even with this strong growth, we aim to grow sustainably and stay true to our commitment to diversity in our teams and innovation in our products to ensure we support our partners and customers.”

Australian business Catalyst IT was one of the first customers globally to adopt PagerDuty Event Intelligence.
