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

"I like that all the features come as part of a standard license and that one license covers everything."
"The stability of the product is very good."
"OpenText ProVision's best feature is the capability to attach a variety of attributes and extract and analyze that information."
"Scalable and stable BPM software with a powerful case management feature. It also has good workflow."
"The best part of Pega, for me, is that they let you reuse a lot of the aspects in the product."
"The processes are much faster now in Pega BPM, in particular, almost ten times faster."
"Pega BPM's most valuable features are case management, integration, the convenience of using REST APIs, and the ease of changing things at the UI level."
"Pega BPM offers an integrated case flow and customer service, which contributes to the vendor becoming a world leader."
"It's been quite good and we've been quite satisfied with it."
"When our clients automate the KYC and onboarding processes, they can reduce their manual force and then deploy them in much better tasks rather than the mundane activities of selecting forms and gathering information."
"Using Pega Platform has saved me time during development, as it takes significantly less time to create example use cases compared to other platforms."
 

Cons

"OpenText ProVision's collaboration management is quite complicated and difficult to use."
"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."
"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."
"The licensing model of Pega BPM is tricky, especially for first-time customers, so it's something that they could improve."
"Reporting is not so clear and not so great. We really struggle to get the right reporting."
"The UI part needs improvement."
"Pega BPM could be improved by including token-based authentication and extending its integration options."
"First-time customers will find its licensing tricky. The technical support team for this solution could be faster in resolving tickets."
"Pega BPM could improve the artificial intelligence capabilities because they are always valuable and case management for all types of industries is important."
"From a room for improvement point of view, what I've seen is that many customers want solutions that directly meet their requirements so while Pega has somewhat vertical solutions on Pega customer service and sales automation, industry and customer experts expect more out-of-box solutions to be readily available on Pega."
"I believe that Pega's strategy when it comes to the UX part is not that great currently as compared to the other emerging BPM tools in the market."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The licensing fees are based on the number of users."
"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."
"The price of PegaRULES is more expensive than other solutions on the market."
"The pricing is pretty good, compared to other similar products."
"We mostly have a yearly license."
"The costing model for Pega BPM is different. One is a license that you can pay yearly. Another licensing model for Pega BPM is based on the number of cases you create in production in a year. Costing based on use cases is also available for Pega BPM. I don't have information on its exact pricing or costs, though."
"The licensing model from Pega BPM is too complex and is more expensive than other solutions, such as SAP. The overall price of the solution depends on the use case."
"PegaRULES is a good product, but its pricing is a bit on the premium side, especially for professionals."
