Deployment Strategies

Roll out CommHero across your organization successfully.

The Three Approaches

🎯 Pilot (Recommended)

Start with one team, prove ROI, then expand

  • • Pick one team (on-call, incident comms, or ops)
  • • Use CommHero for 1-2 weeks
  • • Measure response time, notification speed
  • • Share results with leadership
  • • Expand to other teams based on success

✓ Low risk, high confidence for rollout

🚀 Big Bang (Fast but risky)

Roll out to everyone at once

  • • Invite all users at once
  • • Host training sessions
  • • Make it mandatory for on-call rotation
  • • Monitor adoption closely

âš  Fast but requires strong change management

📊 Gradual (Measured)

Phased rollout over weeks

  • • Week 1: On-call team
  • • Week 2: Engineering managers
  • • Week 3: Extended ops team
  • • Week 4: Entire org

✓ Balanced approach with good feedback loops

Our Recommendation

Start with Pilot. Pick your on-call team, use CommHero for 2 weeks, measure impact (speed improvements, time saved), then expand based on success. This builds internal champions who become your best evangelists.
