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%.

Global Head of Digital, Process Automation at a computer software company with 51-200 employees
Pega is a low-code platform that enables organizations to build, automate, and optimize business processes and customer experiences through AI-powered decisioning and workflow automation.
Here are the key areas where Pega Platform could be improved: 1. User Interface (UI) & User Experience (UX) Customization Limitations: The UI layer is tightly coupled with the platform, limiting flexibility for custom front-end development. Constellation Architecture: While it improves consistency, it restricts advanced UI customizations compared to older section-based designs. Learning Curve: Non-technical users find the UI unintuitive despite the low-code promise. 2. Integration & Extensibility Limited Out-of-the-Box Integrations: Users report challenges integrating with non-relational databases and legacy systems. Robotics Integration: Pega RPA (formerly OpenSpan) is not seamlessly integrated with BPM, creating silos in automation. 3. AI & Decisioning AI Capabilities Need Maturity: Users expect more advanced, native AI features without relying on external tools. CDH & Decision Hub: While powerful, these components require deep expertise to configure effectively. 4. Cost & Licensing High Licensing Costs: Pega is often seen as expensive, especially for small and mid-sized enterprises. Lack of Flexible Pricing Models: Calls for subscription-based or usage-based pricing to improve accessibility. 5. Performance & Scalability Scalability Concerns: Some users report performance degradation with large user bases or complex workflows. Upgrade Complexity: Platform upgrades can be time-consuming and disruptive if not planned well. 6. Documentation & Community Support Insufficient Learning Resources: Especially for advanced features, documentation is limited and community support is not as strong as competitors. Talent Availability: Finding skilled Pega professionals remains a challenge in many regions. 7. Low-Code/No-Code Experience Not Fully No-Code: Despite branding, some tasks still require technical intervention, and the drag-and-drop interface can be restrictive 2. Conflict Management: Simultaneous development by multiple users can lead to rule conflicts.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This product fulfills ninety percent of our needs, and we're happy as users of it."
"iGrafx gives you the capability of documenting your process and then the ability to use it as a tool for analysis to identify the loopholes and shortcomings of your process."
"This product fulfills ninety percent of our needs, and we're happy as users of it."
"The solution has helped our organization because instead of writing long documentation for the shop floor, flow charts make it more attractive for the staff to follow up on and carry out procedures."
"Web diagramming and RACI have helped expedite the process, capture, and ownership initiatives of our organization."
"The solution's technical support is of good quality since they offer fast and seamless services."
"iGrafx gives you the capability of documenting your process and then the ability to use it as a tool for analysis to identify the loopholes and shortcomings of your process."
"The solution's most beneficial feature is the 360 approach, where documentation, process mining, simulation, and automation capabilities are in one solution."
"Case Management is the most valuable feature of PegaRULES, which is not found in other BPM tools."
"This solution is useful for business process management if you have any banking solutions or need to manage a process."
"The new PEGA underwriting platform replaced the former underwriting system and helped to integrate other legacy systems and functionalities in one application. It also helped to save licence costs for other legacy systems."
"It's been quite good and we've been quite satisfied with it."
"What we like about Pega BPM is their case management feature which we find powerful."
"What I found most valuable in PegaRULES is that it allows you to quickly make changes to an existing application. It's pretty easy to do any modification in the tool, which you cannot do in legacy solutions. For example, it takes a lot of time to do it in Java or in .NET. I have worked with both legacy technologies in the past, so that I can tell the difference."
"The product's most valuable features include its adaptability and flexibility, attributed to its Java-based architecture."
"Pega BPM is definitely one of the topmost BPM packages out there."
 

Cons

"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."
"If customers want to change the color or the logo, they have to go through every page to verify everything is right."
"If the price of the solution was more competitive, it would have made things easier for our company to extend the usage."
"I would love to see a template and shapes for customer journey mapping."
"Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find a reseller in Mexico."
"This is a tool that covers the low end (e.g. Visio) to high end (e.g. Aris), although it's much less user friendly."
"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."
"With iGrafx, the implementation and the licensing were pretty complex."
"We have experienced a few technical challenges, particularly triggering the workflow through file drops and accessing files."
"What should be included is some UI features and maybe some integrations. This includes documentation on how the UI works."
"The licensing cost is very high."
"In the Middle East and Africa region, Pega was not very strong from the user experience standpoint."
"The extensive availability of ready-made gadgets in Pega BPM is a double-edged sword. While it offers convenience, it also leads to a steeper learning curve."
"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."
"Business specific functionality is needed."
"Pega currently is trying to add chatbots to their systems, and it's still quite immature. This part definitely needs to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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."
"My company is trying to replace iGrafx because the license is a little bit expensive."
"I have heard that the solution's pricing is very competitive."
"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."
"There are multiple Pega licensing models, including outcome- and revenue-based licensing models"
"The licensing fees are based on the number of users."
"The price of Pega BPM is in the middle range compared to other solutions."
"The licensing model for Pega BPM needs to be improved."
"I would rate the product's pricing a six out of ten."
"Users have to pay a yearly license cost for Pega BPM, which is expensive."
"The product pricing is considered reasonable compared to other solutions in the market."
