OK
Product Manager & Student at University of Vienna
The tool supports university projects with effective modeling and a comprehensive toolset
The pure modeling capabilities with drag-and-drop elements for business process diagrams are excellent. The ability to move smoothly from the process landscape to the business process model diagram is appreciated. The simulation model is user-friendly, and the analysis features offer correct insights quickly. It helps me explore and identify the best candidates for automation. ADONIS supports the project hierarchy and allows collaboration through methodological reviews and comments, enhancing decision-making.
VS
Quality Assurance Team Lead at HCLSoftware
Process automation has improved case handling and now saves half of our daily manual work
Pega Platform has improved my business process overall. The manager confirmed that manual statuses are automated and manual evaluations are automated. For eight hours of work, it automates four hours of work. Pega Platform has features for operational efficiency that are significant. It provides a business security texture app, which is a valuable feature, and it also offers report definitions such as bar charts, pie charts, and operational help. In terms of management capabilities, Pega Platform provides dashboards and tools that help with management and categories. Pega Platform has good integration features, as integration can be done in many ways, and even for legacy systems, it is a strong feature. I did not encounter any problems with legacy systems. Pega Platform has good scalability. It is not difficult to scale up or down if there is a need.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The process modeling interface of ADONIS is very comprehensive, being more complete than Camunda in terms of process documentation and process components such as risks, KPI, and other process components, making it excellent for process documentation, compliance, and repository."
"It's a very complete solution and user-friendly."
"It seems that the process mapping and modeling features are well and thoroughly covered."
"This is a good solution for consulting firms and universities and is one of the best systems for analytics of business processes."
"The product is useful for designing business processes and for repositories."
"The support is fantastic and we have really good contact with them, it's very easy to use."
"We haven't ever needed to take service breaks and we can scale it throughout our company without any problem."
"The best features of the system include good analytics for business processes including the calculation of time and cost."
"Powerful, full-featured business process management with excellent support"
"The technical support from Pega is very low, rating a one or two out of ten."
"There are a lot of frameworks in the product. I use Pega PRPC the most."
"It's been quite good and we've been quite satisfied with it."
"The most valuable features are case management and integration services."
"They're pretty easy to create, and they're pretty easy to deploy."
"The new PEGA underwriting platform replaced the former underwriting system and helped to integrate other legacy systems and functionalities in one application. It also helped to save licence costs for other legacy systems."
"Pega's technical support team is very helpful and I would rate them ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"If there's no WiFi connection, you can't access ADONIS."
"This solution would be more scalable for our business if we could make certain changes, including adding the Russian language."
"One of the weak points is that you can't just export so I'd like to see an improvement in exporting features."
"There is a function to check if the model BPMN is being used correctly, but the report from the check is not always very clear."
"ADONIS needs improvement mainly in user-friendliness, setup, and installations. As an administrator at that time, I found it quite difficult to manage users because I needed to open specific software, possibly Java-based, which is not web-based and should be installed first to manage the users."
"We have to use a different solution to automate our business processes."
"This solution would be improved if 24/7 support were available."
"The solution is in English and we have added certain parts in Russian as this is easier for our students. It would be useful to have the system in Russian."
"There is a scarcity of resources who have worked with this solution before."
"Pega says BPM is low-code/no-code, but that's not true - you need intervention as you can't design the application without some knowledge about it."
"Pega Cloud early adoption and use for cross enterprise capability was new to many. The early adoption meant version 2.0 of their cloud service may require refactoring and redesign of some services."
"The product's artificial intelligence capabilities could be improved. More advanced AI features could further optimize process automation and decision-making."
"Pega BPM can improve product management, case management, omnichannel, CDH, and the customer data hub. All the major domains can improve. Additionally, more AI functionality and proper integrations with Pega RPA would be helpful."
"We have experienced a few technical challenges, particularly triggering the workflow through file drops and accessing files."
"Reporting is not so clear and not so great. We really struggle to get the right reporting. When we need reporting based on the content of the tickets, we are not able to get it. The MIS reporting is not great. That's one of the reasons why we are switching to ServiceNow. Its compatibility with the higher versions of Internet Explorer should be improved. It really works well in Mozilla Firefox or any other browser, but when it comes to Microsoft Edge or Internet Explorer, sometimes, the layout gets disturbed. The positioning of the buttons changes, and there is some distortion in the layout. I am not sure whether it is our configuration problem or Pega's, but when it is working in Mozilla Firefox, it should also work in Microsoft Edge or Internet Explorer."
"In the next release of Pega BPM, they should add more ways to do the customer interaction fields in the portals."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product's pricing is medium, so I rate it a five out of ten."
"The product’s price is quite competitive."
"The price is a bit expensive."
"The price of this solution, including installation and configuration, is comparable to competing vendors."
"Pega BPM is expensive because it's a leading product, but it also delivers a good return on investment (ROI)."
"There are multiple Pega licensing models, including outcome- and revenue-based licensing models"
"The licensing fees are based on the number of users."
"Pricing is good."
"I would rate the product's pricing a six out of ten."
"Pega is expensive."
