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.

City governments improve service efficiency with automated workflow processes
The customer self-portal is not good. Service Creatio ( /products/service-creatio-reviews ) has a special capability for external customers and users to access the web portal, but we had to use third-party solutions developed by us. The design of the customer self-portal is quite bad, particularly the UI. It is not capable of integrating third-party identification systems like GEO, Per zone, or BankID for authorization of external users. It would be beneficial to have the possibility to easily build communication or interaction between different services with different instances of Service Creatio.
