Senior Customer Success Manager at Precio Fishbone Vietnam
A great ERP for medium and even small businesses
If one has experience in the ERP market, big brands like Microsoft require a lot of money over other platforms like Odoo. We can implement an on-premise model for some enterprise customers because it gives privacy and security. For other customers, we provide the cloud version. Currently, we recommend customers implement the ERP platform on the cloud environment because of the flexibility and scaling. I recommend that customers invest in a solution with the possibility of scaling in the future while providing many functions and features out of the box. In many ERPs we provide, although we would recommend ELMA as a default option for medium and even enterprise customers, they need bigger brands. ELMA 365 should be the second or third option for customers right now. I rate ELMA 365 a ten out of ten.

Quality Assurance Team Lead at HCLSoftware
Process automation has improved case handling and now saves half of our daily manual work
Pega Platform has improved my business process overall. The manager confirmed that manual statuses are automated and manual evaluations are automated. For eight hours of work, it automates four hours of work. Pega Platform has features for operational efficiency that are significant. It provides a business security texture app, which is a valuable feature, and it also offers report definitions such as bar charts, pie charts, and operational help. In terms of management capabilities, Pega Platform provides dashboards and tools that help with management and categories. Pega Platform has good integration features, as integration can be done in many ways, and even for legacy systems, it is a strong feature. I did not encounter any problems with legacy systems. Pega Platform has good scalability. It is not difficult to scale up or down if there is a need.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"A lot of customers, when we introduce this kind of product into their organization, it provides a lot of analytics."
"The solution has assisted us by automating our workflow and supports the process management of medication therapy engagements with patients."
"The most valuable feature of Pega BPMI would be the academy courses, specifically the Product Development Network (PDN). Additionally, our organization has a dedicated Customer Engagement Team that we work closely with to achieve our goals."
"As a product I have to say that I think Pega BPM is the best right now, and the only problem that we have with Pega is the people."
"The robotic process automation has increased the confidence of business users."
"It is quite configurable, which is the most exciting feature, and we can easily configure it as per our needs."
"The product helps you to build faster."
"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."
"Powerful, full-featured business process management with excellent support"
 

Cons

"Customers want improved productivity."
"Customers expect more out-of-the-box solutions."
"On a scale of one to ten, I would rate their support as an eight. I say eight because they have global support, so sometimes it takes time."
"The UI needs reworking."
"There is a scarcity of resources who have worked with this solution before."
"Its implementation in the public sector was a bit complex."
"The UI layer is a concern since it is native to them and embedded into the code."
"Compared to other BPM products, the interface is somewhat complex, so the usability could be improved."
"Pega BPM could be improved by including token-based authentication and extending its integration options."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten."
"PegaRULES is a good product, but its pricing is a bit on the premium side, especially for professionals."
"It's a user-based license where, as you scale the numbers of users, the price increases."
"They need to come up with licensing options. Right now they do have a cloud-based option, but the cloud prices I've seen are much more expensive compared to competing products."
"The price of Pega BPM is in the middle range compared to other solutions."
"Licensing varies across geographical regions for us."
"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."
"There are multiple Pega licensing models, including outcome- and revenue-based licensing models"
"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."
