An affordable tool to create workflows requiring an easy initial setup phase
I use AgilePoint in one of the world's largest companies where I currently work. My team and I worked together and created forms, workflows, reports, emails, and a custom portal, which was a very difficult process. Sometimes, we use Dynamics 365 with Logic Apps and AgilePoint for some of our use…

Provides built-in frameworks that can be reused and reduces time and cost
The frameworks are built over the core Pega platform. All the codes are already built. A user can directly use the framework according to their needs. All the corresponding data models and processes already built in the framework can be reused with our custom layer. The tool reduces our costs. It is faster to implement. The solution has everything. It is model-driven. It generates its own code. It has a rules engine. Previously, Pega had its own UI. Now, we have Constellation DX API. It helps us have any user interface we need, like Angular or React. API helps create work objects in the workflow.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"AgilePoint has improved our organization by making form implementation easier and to plan for future growth."
"AgilePoint's most valuable feature is process management."
"The solution's workflows are its most useful feature."
"I like the design and the integration capacity. It's also easy to use."
"The initial setup of AgilePoint was very easy."
"Scalable and stable BPM software with a powerful case management feature. It also has good workflow."
"Pega is a local platform that has evolved from a BPM perspective. This allows teams using this solution to address complexities without having deep knowledge in a specific development area."
"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."
"The case management is great."
"It is a stable product."
"The most valuable feature of Pega BPMI would be the academy courses, specifically the Product Development Network (PDN). Additionally, our organization has a dedicated Customer Engagement Team that we work closely with to achieve our goals."
"There is a feature to accelerate the development so that business analysts can directly create their user stories and assign the task to the developers."
"Overall, the ability to integrate with multiple applications and effective case management is the most valuable."
 

Cons

"Some issues with AgilePoint's design, AI and UX are some of the major problems we deal with when handling our company's business models or processes."
"While the platform is good and it has a lot of options, I would like to see more alternative features in future versions such as connectors to IDM. Currently, they have only ADFS and Okta."
"It could be more flexible, but it's already a good solution for the designer."
"They should add more information about functionality."
"The solution should be able to support Docker. This would help make scalability easier."
"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."
"I believe they simplify the application development. It is still complex. The learning is not easy, it takes time compared to other products on the market."
"The cost of licensing could be improved."
"PegaRULES should provide a more drag-and-drop interface to make it a low-code, no-code product."
"The UI part needs improvement."
"Currently, there isn't any feature I want to be added in the next release of Pega BPM because Pega always adds new features that my team welcomes and looks forward to learning. One area for improvement in the solution is the long learning curve, but after that, you'll find Pega BPM easy to use."
"An area for improvement in Pega BPM is security. It's secure, but it still has a lot of vulnerabilities. Pega BPM is robust, but it still needs some improvement performance-wise."
"Pega is claiming they're into low code but as per Gartner Magic Quadrant, Pega is not there now."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is more cost-effective than local tools."
"Price-wise, AgilePoint is a cheap tool and a standard application for running analytics in an IT environment."
"I believe the pricing has changed recently. We had purchased one license per server, and it was about $2,000. It was a one-time payment. It's possible that they have recently implemented a new cost structure and now have yearly subscriptions."
"I think the price is reasonable."
"They need to come up with licensing options. Right now they do have a cloud-based option, but the cloud prices I've seen are much more expensive compared to competing products."
"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."
"In terms of the pricing for Pega BPM, other solutions may be cheaper, but it doesn't matter if Pega BPM has a higher price tag because what's important is that it's the best solution, and that is what people look for. If I would rate the pricing for the solution, I'd give it three out of five. You have to pay extra for additional features in Pega BPM."
"Licensing varies across geographical regions for us."
"I rate Pega BPM a seven out of ten."
"The solution could be less expensive according to my customers. However, I think the price of the solution is fair."
"The pricing is pretty good, compared to other similar products."
"It is cost-effective for medium enterprises. It is cheaper than ServiceNow."
