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

"OpenText ProVision's best feature is the capability to attach a variety of attributes and extract and analyze that information."
"The stability of the product is very good."
"I like that all the features come as part of a standard license and that one license covers everything."
"Overall, the ability to integrate with multiple applications and effective case management is the most valuable."
"They're pretty easy to create, and they're pretty easy to deploy."
"Pega BPM's most valuable feature is the use of CDX to solve problems."
"The visualization of the business process and the collaboration aspects of the solution are its most valuable features."
"The solution provides us with a very good dashboard."
"Pega Platform is so dynamic and can take on any business demand, challenges, and solve issues."
"The latest releases of PegaRULES are scalable, advanced, and can be easily integrated into your environment."
"It's not too expensive."
 

Cons

"Lacks the ability to have your own in-house developments."
"My main complaint is that the solution is not open source in the sense that you can't have your own in-house developments."
"OpenText ProVision's collaboration management is quite complicated and difficult to use."
"There are a number of drawbacks. Mainly, the collaboration is lacking to some extent - at least when it comes to how we are using it."
"Integrating with or interfacing with other tools like data management tools would be very helpful."
"Its implementation in the public sector was a bit complex."
"Pega BPM could improve the UI, it is poorly designed to have a good UX experience."
"There are some UX shortcomings within the solution."
"This is a very expensive product and there is a lack of availability of the Pega skill sets, the resources."
"What PegaRULES should work on is the integration aspect. I can integrate it with other platforms, but that can take time. It would be good if integration could be automated or if the tool had more out-of-the-box integration features."
"Pega BPM could be improved by including token-based authentication and extending its integration options."
"The way the IDE works with the chatbox and the taxonomy imports could be a little smoother."
"Robotics could improve, as my learning curve in robotics has been challenging."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Users have to pay a yearly license cost for Pega BPM, which is expensive."
"May be somewhat more expensive than other solutions initially, but should have enhanced return on investment."
"PegaRULES is a good product, but its pricing is a bit on the premium side, especially for professionals."
"The solution could be less expensive according to my customers. However, I think the price of the solution is fair."
"Licensing is expensive. You need to wisely select between per user and per case."
"Pega BPM is expensive because it's a leading product, but it also delivers a good return on investment (ROI)."
"It's a user-based license where, as you scale the numbers of users, the price increases."
"The licensing is on a yearly basis. Because of our special relationship, all the training certifications are free of cost. All our employees can do Pega certifications at zero cost. It is all on Pega."
