I’m Falit, founder of SyncMyGroup. After years of copy-pasting CSVs just to keep Slack user-groups, Google Groups, GitHub teams, Jira groups, and on-call schedules aligned, we built a tool that keeps every group in sync—automatically.

What SyncMyGroup does

One-click, two-way sync across Google Workspace, Slack, Microsoft Teams, GitHub, GitLab, Jira, Azure AD, PagerDuty, Opsgenie, and more.

Create, archive, or mirror groups & members so your destination platform always reflects the source—no manual clean-up.

Granular filters & previews let you exclude sensitive groups and see exactly what will change before you hit “Sync.”

Real-time notifications & CSV audit logs land straight in Slack/Teams for instant visibility and compliance.

Why it matters

A single missed group update can block a CI/CD pipeline, drop someone from on-call, or expose a private repo. SyncMyGroup eliminates that risk and saves hours every week.


Lockit allows you to easily and efficiently manage your team’s resources. With lockit you can create shared resource, unlock/lock these resource, get updates when resource is released/locked on channel and set alerts when a resource is released. What is a resource? A resource is anything that can only be used by a limited set of people at a time. This could include servers, license keys, conference rooms, company cars, etc. The Old Way: Person 1: "Hey, is anyone using the staging server? I need it for a couple of hours." Crickets (Person 1 goes away and starts using the staging server) A few moments later... Person 2: "Hey, who is using the staging server? I had a long-running task running since yesterday! All my progress is now lost." With Lockit : Person 1 : @Lockit lock staging Person 2 : @Lockit lock staging @Lockit : Resource staging is locked by @Person 1 till 2014/02/18 6:39 AM PST Use-cases - Avoid conflicts when using servers. - Share license with teams. - Reserve a conference room ahead - Get Alerts when a resource get free


wow, I came across this yesterday only. Cool stuff!


Thanks falitjain!

We analysed oncall policies and compensation across comapanies stage, region and country policies


We have built Pagerly which updates the Slack user group (like @sre-oncall) with your Oncall schedule and your current oncall. You can also receieve Instant Notification on Oncall Rotation/Handover Start tagging oncall like @dev-on-call, Have Automated Response for Each Oncall Mention To Free Developer Time In short one can Manage Rotations, override, notify, and engage oncalls via Slack


We analysed what devops roles i.e responsibilities and expectations in 2023 in more than 20 companies. Note: the blog doesn't include the MLops/ AI management, we would covering it as a separate post


In the past organisation I worked, we often had to mention a team's oncall on Slack. While our oncall rotation was managed on Pagerduty, there was no easy way to know the current oncall and know whenever the oncall handover happens. We wanted to tag any team's oncall something like @dev-on-call or @payments-oncall, however, the current tools didn't provide anything to help on this

Tired of guessing, we built this slack app through which one can easily : -Find Who-is-Oncall on Slack Instant Notification on Oncall Rotation/Handover -Have Automated Response for Each Oncall Mention To Free Developer Time ( may be add SOPs/ Troubleshooting documents whenever your team oncall is mentioned in slack) - Manage Rotations & override schedule Tag current oncall in Slack threads - Automatically fetch the current oncall for each team to tag onto any Slack conversation - Update Slack Usergroups with the current oncall to have something like : @dev-on-call.

Pagerly integrates with Pagerduty, Opsgenie and Integrations with Jira,ServiceNow are upcoming.
