Interactive with good functionality and helps with productivity

The latest version is HOPEX WiFi. HOPEX can be on the cloud and accessed from anywhere within the given access network area. It is very interactive. We can do things from anywhere, and all the applications will work as specified. We can generate documents and can publish the documents. We can create a data match and visualize graphs and everything. Everything can be generated from the web interface itself. It has good functionality. We can develop our own customizations and meta models to define requirements, in-house business functions, and requirements. MEGA is already defined by global standards. A company can adapt to global standards and work in such a way to design its own methodology to define its structure. The interface is very good.

It lets you do any modifications easily compared to legacy solutions as it's a low-code, no-code tool

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. Apart from that, I can do most of the integrations with other platforms in PegaRULES. Still, from a development perspective, as a software developer, I would like to see an easier way to implement integrations where I can click a few screens or do less coding for integration. Still, if I have to do any integration, it would be possible in PegaRULES, but it would take two to three hours to complete. I want a more straightforward integration process in the tool because compared to Microsoft Power Platform, another low-code, no-code tool, Microsoft Power Platform is relatively straightforward to integrate with Twitter. You can quickly get the feeds from Twitter. Microsoft Power Platform has an out-of-the-box integration setup with Twitter. Based on this example, PegaRULES could have a more straightforward integration piece. If the tool had more default integration pieces or out-of-the-box integrations with other platforms by default, that would help a lot. For example, Twitter integration, ChatGPT integration, etc., especially because ChatGPT is becoming popular. Otherwise, I'll have to write some custom code and then create the connectors and the HTTP connectors and connect the connectors to the system manually, which takes time. I want default integrations that I can plug and play to make integrations in PegaRULES easier. Integration with the latest AI is a feature I want to see in PegaRULES. For example, an out-of-the-box integration with ChatGPT because I'm working on an integration piece for one of my own POCs, but I need custom coding to build that feature. I need a feature that lets you click a button to integrate PegaRULES with multiple platforms to make the integration process very easy. Less custom coding when it comes to integration is also what I want to see in the tool, though that impacts developers like me rather than the customer experience because it's more the backend.

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 is the completeness of HOPEX's meta-model. It's a strong meta-model that's rigid but comprehensive. It's a logical fit for our understanding of how we want things modeled in our database."

"MEGA offers a more integrated GRC platform to facilitate enhanced coordination between the functions of Risk, Compliance, and Internal Audit on a single platform solution - HOPEX."

"The support experience in Latin America is great."

"What I find the most valuable is the process workflow. It is really good."

"The most valuable feature for this solution is the automatic updating and propagation of changes across the system."

"We have many use cases for this solution but the feature I have found most valuable is the IT Portfolio Management module."

"The dashboard on the homepage makes for an enhanced view at a glance of the various work functions applicable to the user."

"The initial setup was straightforward. With configuration, customizing or prepping the data and deployment, it took about one year to set up. We only needed two people to deploy and maintain the solution: one business architect and someone who specializes in customization and operations."

More MEGA HOPEX pros

"The case management functionality of this solution has been most valuable."

"Scalable and stable BPM software with a powerful case management feature. It also has good workflow."

"The most valuable feature is flexibility, as we can configure it to best suit our requirements."

"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 most valuable feature of Pega BPM is step-by-step voice guidance that converts your problem statement into different diagrams and then implements the process."

"Can do a lot of things with minimum time and cost."

"The solution is able to support the size and scale required."

"While there may be stability issues, they are minimal."

More Pega Platform pros

Cons

"We have a very close relationship with MEGA representatives in Mexico, and we ask them why they don't offer impact analysis. For example, we have a server in the center and provide the client a view of what's in the peripheral area, like one cluster, application, process area, and services. We want to offer our clients that level of visibility with HOPEX."

"The solution lacks additional models compared to other tools."

"MEGA HOPEX can improve process simulation in the BPA module. If the solution was better we would not have to use another solution for this purpose. Simulating scenarios in the future for the to-be processes is in demand. If we can have the simulation engine built inside MEGA HOPEX, we would not have to purchase another license or solution to integrate them with each other. This would be a great improvement."

"It has a data domain where we load our data objects onto the tool but doesn't provide data governance capabilities such as cleansing or validating data."

"Standardization is lacking. The Operational Risk Function will be more effective if it at a default level follows established Basel standards for Loss categorization, Risk Assessments, Risk Event categorization, etc."

"Scalability can be a problem sometimes."

"An area for improvement in MEGA HOPEX is its vast learning curve. The tool is also heavy, so that's a pain point. MEGA HOPEX is also tricky to use if you don't train for many hours."

"It would be great if this solution could integrate with other tools such as ITSM (ServiceNow) or CMDB."

More MEGA HOPEX cons

"They need to support the solution better, at this time the company does not have enough support."

"In the next release of Pega BPM, they should add more ways to do the customer interaction fields in the portals."

"The licensing cost is very high."

"There are some UX shortcomings within the solution. However, it's my understanding that they have addressed them and in the next three months they will come out with a new updated version. They will be moving away from HTML5."

"The UI part needs improvement."

"Its implementation in the public sector was a bit complex."

"From a technical point of view, it would be helpful to have some advanced analytics to help with configuration. We have a lot of unwanted features and it would be good to configure it more appropriately so that we are using just exactly what we need."

"To learn Pega, you need to be a partner. If someone just wants to learn Pega for the sake of learning, they won't be able to do so as they don't give access to that."

More Pega Platform cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I've been told that MEGA HOPEX is very expensive, which is why small organizations dismiss the tool. It's complex and costly versus other simpler and cheaper solutions."

"The product is reasonably priced for the value it offers. There's a good balance between cost and features."

"The tool is relatively expensive."

"The product has a high cost."

"It is very expensive."

"The price of the MEGA HOPEX license could improve, it is expensive. The license key for business process analysis and IT architecture is approximately €10,000. This price is fixed, it's not a subscription or cloud-based version. It is a one-time price."

"If you want to use additional features, such as the Risk Management capability, then it is a little too expensive."

"The pricing depends on the number of licenses purchased."

More MEGA HOPEX pricing and cost advice

"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."

"I would rate the product's pricing a six out of ten."

"I rate Pega BPM a seven out of ten."

"The price could be lower."

"Users have to pay a yearly license cost for Pega BPM, which is expensive."

"In terms of the price, if I were to compare Pega to other tools, it would be more expensive, but it would also provide you with the same features."

"The price of Pega BPM falls on the higher side of the spectrum if I were to compare it with other solutions in the market."

"This upgrade process is very expensive; although I haven't been on the sales team responsible for the pricing, I know it costs millions of dollars."

Reviews from Real Users

Below are some reviews and helpful feedback written by PeerSpot users currently using the MEGA HOPEX solution.

PeerSpot user Kayode A., Enterprise Architecture Consultant at ZealHosts Consulting, says, “What I find the most valuable is the process workflow. It is really good. The fact that you can decompose is also valuable, as is the file D structure. Also, the fact that you can have your own logical repository structure and you can drag and drop is very valuable. This is largely because of its intuitiveness. Once you understand the logic behind the tool, MEGA HOPEX is quite intuitive. I also like the ability to create custom reports. I like the fact that you can share repository content via web to other end users who are not architects.”

A Software Architect at a transportation company mentions, “The main feature that we like the most is the ability to have a unique repository where all the architects can interact and play together with the shapes of different architecture solutions. They have a unified repository where users can share the developments they're working on. Its availability is very good.”

An IT Consulting Manager at a tech services company comments, "We have many use cases for this solution but the feature I have found most valuable is the IT Portfolio Management module."
