Helps with code review, test case generation, and chat features

In a few cases, the results aren't correct, so that needs improvement. Also, it would be great if the results could be presented in different formats, not just text. As engineers, it takes time to read through text-based results. If they could provide diagrams or basic design architectures, it would be easier to understand and take less time to review. So, as of now, image functionality is not provided by GitHub Copilot, and it would be great if they could add that. So, I would like to see improvements in the result generation, more results, different result formats, and image functionality.

Excellent machine learning, automation intelligence, DevOps for larger organizations

The initial setup takes time. You have to gather people with the right skills. If you have that then it won't take that much time at all. Basically, the main selling point of Pega is it can reduce your entire timeline drastically. The constraint is you need to have the right kind of people. Pega is a huge tool, and honestly speaking, nowadays, there are a lot of sections in Pega where there is no single user who knows the entire feature set. It's a big and complicated product. You need to have the right blend of team members to set up, to have an easy initial setup. In those instances, it might take six to eight weeks. After that, I have seen people delivering some base prototypes and a walking model in a few weeks.

More GitHub CoPilot pros

"The user interface and the ease of developing the workflow for an application are valuable features."

"The most notable feature is the dynamic workflow changes, allowing adjustments without completing the entire cycle. Transitioning from test to build to production was seamless and on the fly, which is something truly remarkable about Pega. Additionally, the workflow creation doesn't require users with extensive technical skills, thanks to its low-code platform, making it accessible and efficient."

"There is a feature to accelerate the development so that business analysts can directly create their user stories and assign the task to the developers."

"Pega BPM has a full suite for any enterprise. It is a process orchestration platform. It has detailed features for case management and workflows."

"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."

"Powerful, full-featured business process management with excellent support"

More Pega BPM pros

Cons

"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."

"There are no extensions provided by the product for Eclipse."

"The tool needs to focus on integration, as it is the most important aspect. I would like to see some pre-designed modules included in my projects."

"In a few cases, the results aren't correct, so that needs improvement. Also, it would be great if the results could be presented in different formats, not just text. As engineers, it takes time to read through text-based results."

"The suggestions provided by the product must be improved."

"In certain instances, OpenAI didn't respond in the expected way. The responses were more general and didn't address the specific point."

"GitHub CoPilot’s integration with other solutions could be improved."

"GitHub CoPilot's stability is an area of concern where improvements are required."

More GitHub CoPilot cons

"This is a quite expensive product."

"We have experienced a few technical challenges, particularly triggering the workflow through file drops and accessing files."

"They are currently spending some time on improving the product with respect to machine learning, especially related to robotic automation. They probably could be a little more adept on that area would help."

"Pega BPM can improve product management, case management, omnichannel, CDH, and the customer data hub. All the major domains can improve. Additionally, more AI functionality and proper integrations with Pega RPA would be helpful."

"Reporting is not so clear and not so great. We really struggle to get the right reporting. When we need reporting based on the content of the tickets, we are not able to get it. The MIS reporting is not great. That's one of the reasons why we are switching to ServiceNow. Its compatibility with the higher versions of Internet Explorer should be improved. It really works well in Mozilla Firefox or any other browser, but when it comes to Microsoft Edge or Internet Explorer, sometimes, the layout gets disturbed. The positioning of the buttons changes, and there is some distortion in the layout. I am not sure whether it is our configuration problem or Pega's, but when it is working in Mozilla Firefox, it should also work in Microsoft Edge or Internet Explorer."

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

"The main problem with Pega is that it is quite complex, so it is very difficult for the developer to learn."

"The unit testing needs to improve, as well as the user interface."

More Pega BPM cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have a demo license. Once we understand what we'll do, we'll start with a paid license."

"It's affordable."

"The product offers a free version and a paid version. Whether to choose the product's free version or paid version depends on the size of the company where it will be used."

"GitHub CoPilot's pricing is reasonable. Our licensing costs were initially monthly, but then we switched to yearly payments. I rate the tool's pricing an eight out of ten."

"There is a need to pay around 10 USD to be able to use the solution."

"We have a license but need another one for the GitHub CoPilot tool."

"The solution is costly."

"GitHub CoPilot comes readily available for enterprise customers, so it's a free add-on if you already have GitHub's enterprise license."

More GitHub CoPilot pricing and cost advice

"The licensing model for Pega BPM needs to be improved."

"The solution could be less expensive according to my customers. However, I think the price of the solution is fair."

"Licensing is expensive. You need to wisely select between per user and per case."

"The licensing fees are based on the number of users."

"The price of this solution, including installation and configuration, is comparable to competing vendors."

"In terms of the pricing for Pega BPM, other solutions may be cheaper, but it doesn't matter if Pega BPM has a higher price tag because what's important is that it's the best solution, and that is what people look for. If I would rate the pricing for the solution, I'd give it three out of five. You have to pay extra for additional features in Pega BPM."

"The price could be lower."

"They have both on-premise and cloud licensing. If you are a small to medium company, go for the cloud option because that eliminates a lot of the setting up of your DevTest and performance environments, multiple environments, because you can buy that from Pega with the cloud option. So your setup time really goes down. If you're a large company, then you're better off putting it within your company. You have other skill resources within your company to create environments."
