MR
Solution Consultant at a healthcare company with 51-200 employees
Provides documentation, process mining, simulation, and automation capabilities
If customers want to change the color or the logo, they have to go through every page to verify everything is right. We have a strategic approach for the customer. I was involved in almost 100 sessions where the customers were looking for a one-time process visualization or one-time process mining, not for a long-term association with this tool. The customer's requirements are more tactical than strategic. We had some challenges during this time frame as I was with iGrafx, and electricity costs rose in Germany. One customer stopped a large deal because they had to reduce every non-invested investment due to the electricity bill rising by 500% to 800%.
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

"We think iGrafx is well-priced, affordable; you don’t need a lot of license seats, and it has a good, free, downloadable iGrafx Viewer (akin to Adobe Reader)."
"It is one of the top-tier solutions that are available."
"Finding the right symbol and creating links, horizontal and vertical are the features I use."
"It's a great product, but all the functionalities need to be exploited in order to get the full value of the investment."
"Overall, the solution is very useful and has good features."
"It is very easy to use for describing processes and is very useful in the simulation of the process putting parameters and the metrics process."
"If you need software to help you easily design processes, make simulations, build value stream mappings, which has some LEAN features, and DMAIC support, I strongly encourage you to go forward and buy iGrafx."
"It has increased accountability by providing defined documentation ownership."
"The workflows are the most valuable features, particularly for us, because we were attempting to automate processes by utilizing workflows to provide a hands-off comparison between the bot and the human."
"The case management is great."
"The technical support of Pega BPM is very good."
"They are very easy and very reliable to use, the APIs."
"Whenever a customer needs to do something, the way Pega designs the whole thing into an easy number of steps makes the flow from the actual intent to the actual final results pretty fast."
"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."
"getNext removes some of the managements overheads as well as inbuilt reporting."
"In certain circumstances, it can be fairly straightforward to execute and deploy new modifications."
 

Cons

"With iGrafx, the implementation and the licensing were pretty complex."
"They can reduce the cost of the product and make it easily accessible for consultants."
"There are a few areas iGrafx which could improve, probably the biggest area would be to support iOS as well as PC, so clients don’t have to emulate PC on an iOS platform."
"If the price of the solution was more competitive, it would have made things easier for our company to extend the usage."
"Dragging and dropping shapes is not as user-friendly as in Visio. In Visio, it's very easy to work with shapes and in very few minutes you can plot a whole, multi swim-lane, cross-functional process."
"In the next release, I would like to see more layers like three, four, and five. It might be possible but I haven't seen it yet."
"The solution could benefit from improvements to its interface. More specifically, when compared to other tools, the process modeling features lack symbols or object types that are used to represent the information or data within the process."
"It would be helpful to be able to do more analytics and generate reports on historical documents that have already been uploaded to the server."
"The licensing model of Pega BPM is tricky, especially for first-time customers, so it's something that they could improve."
"I believe there are improvements needed in Pega Platform, particularly in robotics."
"It should have integration with non-relational databases. A lot of databases are non-relational, and as a company, we are planning to move to NoSQL or open-source databases. It would be good if we are able to install and use Pega on a NoSQL database. They can also try to tailor or organize the company a bit differently and go more towards the microservice concept. I would like Pega to develop machine learning and intelligent AI algorithms. They have a good foundation in terms of the model and the stuff that we are using for some customers, and it will be good to onboard as many machine learning algorithms as possible."
"What should be included is some UI features and maybe some integrations. This includes documentation on how the UI works."
"This is an expensive solution."
"Compared to other BPM products, the interface is somewhat complex, so the usability could be improved."
"Sometimes when we are patching some data from the database, we are getting added as a timeout."
"It needs more integration with other platforms."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"My company is trying to replace iGrafx because the license is a little bit expensive."
"Earlier, the licensing part was complex because there were so many modules and elements in the tool. Over the last one and a half years, a lot of work has gone into how the product has priced and positioned its tools in the market."
"I have heard that the solution's pricing is very competitive."
"Our license is a subscription-based model that is per user. The solution is not expensive, I believe a subscription-based model is $10 per user."
"The licensing part is one of the problems. Its licensing depends on the number of users, so it sometimes gets expensive."
"We mostly have a yearly license."
"I rate Pega BPM a seven out of ten."
"Pega is expensive."
"The price of this solution, including installation and configuration, is comparable to competing vendors."
"It is cost-effective for medium enterprises. It is cheaper than ServiceNow."
"Licensing is expensive. You need to wisely select between per user and per case."
"Users have to pay a yearly license cost for Pega BPM, which is expensive."
"It's a user-based license where, as you scale the numbers of users, the price increases."
