ilert

German-built ChatOps-first incident management for European mid-market.

By iLert GmbH · Founded 2013 · Cologne, Germany · private

ilert is the German-built incident management platform, founded 2013 in Cologne. The product's positioning: ChatOps-first workflow, GDPR-native compliance with EU data residency, and strong fit for European mid-market organizations with data residency or sovereignty requirements. Covers alerting, on-call, incident response, status pages, and added an AI assistant in 2025. Best fit for European mid-market (50-2,000 employees) prioritizing data residency, GDPR compliance, and ChatOps. Trade-offs: brand awareness very low outside Europe, integration ecosystem smaller (~120), AI features behind incident.io, and the product stops being the obvious choice for North American buyers without data residency needs.
