Have faced persistent configuration issues and performance delays that slow down large workflows
From a developer's perspective, it could be more open for programming language configurations. It is currently restricted to Groovy scripting. While UI and UX designs are open to JavaScript configurations, there are restrictions on certain functions that can be used. The solution could be enhanced to better serve customers when dealing with complex programs. The customer's websites face issues with loading properly, and response time gets longer when implementing larger workflows. This could be improved to achieve lower response times even with larger workflows involving multiple system integrations and complex architecture. The agent decay capabilities need improvement in future releases. Currently, there are some agent decay configurations available for developers to implement, but this area needs enhancement. Performance issues exist in the Sandbox area. The Sandbox is a trial area for configurations, but if work continues for a long time without publishing, it tends to get corrupted, requiring deletion and rework from the ground up. This has caused significant rework and effort multiple times. Technical support can be challenging to work with. When facing product-related issues or configuration problems, the support experience varies. Sometimes the technical support is knowledgeable and helpful, but often they redirect problems elsewhere and cause delays in resolution.

Can be deployed easily but needs to offer more out-of-the-box adaptors
The disadvantage of the tool stems from the fact that it does not allow users to make database-level modifications. In Siebel CRM, you have complete control over your database, you can do any database-level modifications, and you can create a custom data model within your database, but such functionalities are not available in Pega CRM. The UI and UI level modifications that are available in Siebel CRM with JavaScript within the jQuery framework, which is basically an open UI framework built by Siebel on top of a UI layer, are available in the tool. The level of UI modifications allowed by Siebel CRM is not available in Pega CRM. The aforementioned areas can be considered for improvement in the tool. I would like to see more out-of-the-box adaptors in Pega CRM since it is an area where the tool has certain shortcomings.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of the solution is that a company can maintain all of its HR data without any issues."
"Oracle Cloud Services integrates well. It has lots of APIs to integrate with other solutions, like the PBX we use from Cisco. The ability to integrate Siebel data with Cisco PBX was nice."
"Everything is managed by Oracle, so they have security in place."
"There is also a focus on maintaining efficiency, and it is a significant time saver."
"The solution is easy to learn."
"The solution changes the way clients work to make it easier and faster."
"Oracle's strength lies in swiftly building and deploying enterprise applications globally."
"Everything is managed by Oracle, so they have security in place."
"One of the most valuable features of Pega CRM for our team's productivity is its ease of setup, thanks to its configuration-driven approach."
"We can effortlessly manage the data within it, and it offers ease of use and high flexibility to present the data across various vendors."
"Great flexibility and its locking mechanism enable multiple users to work on the same case seamlessly."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to pull information about the customer on-the-fly so they feel the interaction is more personal."
"Pega offers a clear parent-child case relationship that's easily created and maintained. Dependencies can be configured, where reaching a specific stage in a parent case automatically triggers a child task in a child case, while the parent case remains on hold until a certain condition is met before moving forward. This configuration allows multiple users to work on cases in parallel. Many of these settings are readily available within Pega case settings. Overall, Pega's case management is unparalleled compared to other options."
"The case management feature is really valuable."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to pull information about the customer on-the-fly so they feel the interaction is more personal."
"It also reduces the duration per call, and it ensures a first time resolution of the issue."
 

Cons

"When answer links are embedded within the ticket message threads, agents are taken to the customer portal; the development team should identify another option."
"One suggestion I have is to shorten the IT team's response time. When we submit an ASR or similar request, it takes a while to receive a response, and this can be seen as a drawback."
"Oracle Fusion Service has many challenges, as it's not easy in customization and for adding features; there's no access for the database directly."
"I would like to see more AI usage, enhanced personalization capabilities, and simpler integration capabilities."
"Oracle counts users for licensing purposes, regardless of their roles or usage patterns. This process could be better."
"We built some custom code to make a few functions easier. Oracle needs to look at what the customers do and integrate them into the product."
"Oracle Service Cloud could improve the integration for older platforms."
"I would like to see more AI usage, enhanced personalization capabilities, and simpler integration capabilities."
"The UI is lagging and needs to be improved."
"The solution has room for improvement around decisional and real-time data analysis."
"The solution has room for improvement around decisional and real-time data analysis."
"The disadvantage of the tool stems from the fact that it does not allow users to make database-level modifications."
"Price is always a concern for many organizations. They often think Pega is expensive, and sometimes they don't fully understand the pricing model."
"There has been a common acknowledgment among customers that this solution is an expensive tool and they often opt for cheaper tools like Comodo"
"They should enable the data-driven streaming feature inside it."
"For many of the clients, they have a separate system or separate layer of UI and a separate layer of the business rules engine, which Pega has taken care of in the recent releases."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are no extra licenses, everything is included in the subscription, and the price is fixed."
"This is definitely an expensive product compared to others on the market."
"Oracle Fusion Service is a cheap and flexible solution."
"Licensing fees are on the higher end and I rate them an eight out of ten."
"Oracle's pricing is quite high, and this cost can be a significant barrier, especially for smaller companies."
"The tool is reasonably priced."
"Oracle Fusion Service is more expensive than Workday."
"The product has average pricing."
"The pricing is on the higher side."
"It is expensive."
"We have numerous uses of the solution in our organisation. Almost 72 applications are integrated with Pega CRM, and some of them are shutting down for various reasons including the high licensing costs. There is a strong focus in the market and offices on cost reduction."
