Integration enhances efficiency with good ERP Fusion Console that helps with centralization
When it comes to ERP Cloud, performance has always been an issue, especially when calling an API or a VIP publisher. I experience timeouts, which Oracle needs to improve. There have been many service requests around this, particularly last year. Although progress has been made, performance is still a concern for me. When dealing with bulk data uploads via a BDI process, some records occasionally fail, requiring me to debug and reprocess them. Enhanced performance is something that I would be interested in.
Srinivas Ganisetti - PeerSpot reviewer
Case management feature is valuable but the pricing is expensive
I would like to suggest the solution but it really depends on your specific requirements, your business use cases and future plans. There is a significant investment involved in this solution and therefore it is very crucial to reevaluate your future necessity including automation potential and modernization plans. I would suggest that you select any kind of solution and explore alternatives of similar functionalities at a lower cost. This might help you to achieve more with less. In my experience, I would rate it between seven to eight because it offers robust capabilities. But please be aware that other BPM tools are emerging with similar features at a lower cost. Pega CRM is perceived as bulk care compared to order tools, as many of its capabilities are potentially underutilized. I would rate it 7 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is completely cloud-based and very easy to access from anywhere."
"There is also a focus on maintaining efficiency, and it is a significant time saver."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that customers can easily understand it."
"Oracle Service Cloud could improve the integration for older platforms."
"The solution is easy to learn."
"It supports various APIs and connectors, enabling seamless communication with other systems, including both Oracle products and third-party applications."

"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."
"The product's deployment phase was easy."
"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."
"It also reduces the duration per call, and it ensures a first time resolution of the issue."
"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."

"The UI should be improved."
"It would be beneficial to enhance the pricing and support implementation options as they are currently quite expensive."
"They should enable the data-driven streaming feature inside it."
"The UI is lagging and needs to be improved."
