Mihir Raval - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Software Developer at Plutomen Technology
Strong typing has reduced runtime failures and supports predictable backend operations
The biggest area for improvement in Ada is ecosystem depth. While Ada itself is very solid, the library ecosystem is still thinner compared to Go and Rust, especially for newer cloud-native tooling and integrations, meaning we occasionally have to build wrappers or bindings ourselves, which adds some friction. Documentation and onboarding could be smoother, especially for developers new to Ada coming from modern ecosystems. The core docs are good, but practical examples around debugging, package patterns, and a modern deployment workflow could be more polished. We created some internal starter templates to shorten the ramp-up time, which helped, but better out-of-the-box guidance would make adoption easier.
Ananya Bl - PeerSpot reviewer
Data Analyst at Capgemini
Daily orchestration of complex ai workflows has boosted my research and automation capabilities
Orchestration primarily decides which agent handles which part of a task and manages errors, retries, and complete state while maintaining the workflow effectively. On the orchestration side, branching, looping, and human approvals support non-linear workflows in production environments with real-time access. Through refined and improved prompts, this helps in closing the loop with actual users. One unique feature that stood out is that every step in the workflow can pause or recover from failures. Instead of finishing the entire agent in one go, this approach is interesting because if there is a minor change in a previously completed step regarding the state, I can re-edit and restart from the beginning. This is truly impressive.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Ada has positively impacted my organization as I work on the provider directory by re-routing based on patient symptoms to determine which patient should go to which doctor."
"Ada offers agentic workflow as its best feature, providing the agent capability to personalize customer support and making customer success operations easier."
"Ada is a very solid tool overall; it effectively handles repetitive customer questions and improves response speed."
"I want to mention that Ada reduced our response time by 40% and cut off repetitive tickets by around 30%, which improved customer satisfaction as we noticed."
"Overall, Ada delivers exactly where we need it: reliability, predictability, and long-term maintainability, and in the right use case, it is exceptionally dependable and pays off over time, making me absolutely willing to use it again for the same class of system."
"Its AI is highly accurate and reliable for understanding customer intent, answering common questions, and providing consistent responses with minimal errors."
"When I searched for internal information spread across different systems, Glean Platform did centralize and retrieve that data for me effectively, giving me eighty percent accuracy."
"Life became so easy when we started using Glean Platform."
"Since I have joined, I have built around ninety agents with Glean Platform, and it has saved our organization around twenty-seven hours a week for each user, and it has also positively impacted our ARR."
"The best features Glean Platform offers are mostly the view, which I think is very good, and what I find most helpful about the view is that the user interface is very good, making it very easy to chat with the chatbot and get all the material that I want in the way that I need it."
"Productivity has really skyrocketed."
"Glean Platform has positively impacted our organization, especially in terms of productivity for both us and our customers."
"Glean Platform offers excellent user interface design and integration capabilities with other platforms."
"The best features Glean Platform offers include the ability to create my own agents, for example, I created a self-service agent for my stakeholders, so rather than email me, I sent them a link to an agent where the agent asks them questions and drills down to exactly what they need, and then I get a qualified response from them."
 

Cons

"I would rate this product a 6."
"I would rate this product a 6."
"Ada could be improved with better handling of highly complex conversations, more customization for AI responses, and deeper integrations with third-party business applications."
"The biggest area for improvement in Ada is ecosystem depth."
"Ada is quite a good and solid tool, but one area of improvement could be more advanced customization of the conversation flows to make it more flexible for complex scenarios."
"Ada can be improved by being able to identify symptoms based on the age, and it needs to have more questionnaire options."
"I think Ada could improve with more flexibility in customizing chatbot responses to feel more natural in varied situations."
"Sometimes Glean Platform gets slowed down."
"Currently, Glean Platform does not integrate with Teams, Microsoft-owned platforms."
"There are multiple ways in which Glean Platform can be improved."
"My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that the licenses were expensive, and it was hard to convince the company to adopt based on that."
"Glean Platform can implement more models. The NLP creation could be a little faster, and while debugging is amazing, the routing also needs to provide higher quality outputs sometimes rather than extensive searching."
"I tried pulling in an architecture diagram of a workflow, and it pulled in some other image instead."
"My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing for Glean Platform reveals limited options, and I wish there was more customization available."
"In workflow agents, I would prefer that we do not use AI in every step and instead we have a toggle button or something which can configure whether AI should be used in this specific search field or not, or in this specific node or not, because currently it's using AI in all nodes which sometimes messes up the output."
