Chatops has failed at every single company I've worked at. This is an extremely noisy and unnatural way of managing resources and it gets old after the first week. A sprinkle of Hubot here and a Slack web hook there but no one is going all-in on this.
Founder here - we agree. ChatOps has traditionally required you to build out a specific solution for Chat, which failed the cost of ownership equation, after you consider the cost of setting up servers, code and chat specific logic to run your workflows. Hubot is a good example but we've taking it way further and rethought DevOps from a Slack first perspective.
With CTO.ai your existing CLI "just works" in Slack and you have none of the additional overhead but get all of the benefits of chat such as distribution, transparency and collaboration as well. It's a big paradigm shift.
Many of our users are going all in because of this!
