If customers want to change the color or the logo, they have to go through every page to verify everything is right. We have a strategic approach for the customer. I was involved in almost 100 sessions where the customers were looking for a one-time process visualization or one-time process mining, not for a long-term association with this tool. The customer's requirements are more tactical than strategic. We had some challenges during this time frame as I was with iGrafx, and electricity costs rose in Germany. One customer stopped a large deal because they had to reduce every non-invested investment due to the electricity bill rising by 500% to 800%.

Global Head of Digital, Process Automation at a computer software company with 51-200 employees
Pega is a low-code platform that enables organizations to build, automate, and optimize business processes and customer experiences through AI-powered decisioning and workflow automation.
Here are the key areas where Pega Platform could be improved: 1. User Interface (UI) & User Experience (UX) Customization Limitations: The UI layer is tightly coupled with the platform, limiting flexibility for custom front-end development. Constellation Architecture: While it improves consistency, it restricts advanced UI customizations compared to older section-based designs. Learning Curve: Non-technical users find the UI unintuitive despite the low-code promise. 2. Integration & Extensibility Limited Out-of-the-Box Integrations: Users report challenges integrating with non-relational databases and legacy systems. Robotics Integration: Pega RPA (formerly OpenSpan) is not seamlessly integrated with BPM, creating silos in automation. 3. AI & Decisioning AI Capabilities Need Maturity: Users expect more advanced, native AI features without relying on external tools. CDH & Decision Hub: While powerful, these components require deep expertise to configure effectively. 4. Cost & Licensing High Licensing Costs: Pega is often seen as expensive, especially for small and mid-sized enterprises. Lack of Flexible Pricing Models: Calls for subscription-based or usage-based pricing to improve accessibility. 5. Performance & Scalability Scalability Concerns: Some users report performance degradation with large user bases or complex workflows. Upgrade Complexity: Platform upgrades can be time-consuming and disruptive if not planned well. 6. Documentation & Community Support Insufficient Learning Resources: Especially for advanced features, documentation is limited and community support is not as strong as competitors. Talent Availability: Finding skilled Pega professionals remains a challenge in many regions. 7. Low-Code/No-Code Experience Not Fully No-Code: Despite branding, some tasks still require technical intervention, and the drag-and-drop interface can be restrictive 2. Conflict Management: Simultaneous development by multiple users can lead to rule conflicts.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Simulation is most valuable."
"It has increased accountability by providing defined documentation ownership."
"Overall, the solution is very useful and has good features."
"One of the biggest plus points of the product stems from the fact that I have never seen any glitches in it."
"Web diagramming and RACI have helped expedite the process, capture, and ownership initiatives of our organization."
"Another good feature is that the numbering of the shapes in iGrafx is much easier and more convenient, in comparison to what is found in Visio. So far I haven't found anything similar to what I have with iGrafx, in that regard."
"iGrafx gives you the capability of documenting your process and then the ability to use it as a tool for analysis to identify the loopholes and shortcomings of your process."
"The IDEF0 add-on solution truly integrates all the process maps through intelligent arrow name management."
"Previously, our HR onboarding application ran in silos, so everything was happening separately, but Pega BPM allowed us to consolidate all the data in one place, from which we could define our business workflow, meaning we have the entire flow running in one application from start to end with the help of third-party application data."
"The case management is great."
"Scalable and stable BPM software with a powerful case management feature. It also has good workflow."
"Using Pega Platform has saved me time during development, as it takes significantly less time to create example use cases compared to other platforms."
"Pega Platform has improved my business process overall."
"Case Management, as well as Workflow Automation, are Pega's most powerful capabilities."
"The most valuable aspect of the solution is the various workflows."
"Whenever a customer needs to do something, the way Pega designs the whole thing into an easy number of steps makes the flow from the actual intent to the actual final results pretty fast."
 

Cons

"They can reduce the cost of the product and make it easily accessible for consultants."
"Dragging and dropping shapes is not as user-friendly as in Visio. In Visio, it's very easy to work with shapes and in very few minutes you can plot a whole, multi swim-lane, cross-functional process."
"If the price of the solution was more competitive, it would have made things easier for our company to extend the usage."
"I would love to see a template and shapes for customer journey mapping."
"If customers want to change the color or the logo, they have to go through every page to verify everything is right."
"In the next release, I would like to see more layers like three, four, and five. It might be possible but I haven't seen it yet."
"This is a tool that covers the low end (e.g. Visio) to high end (e.g. Aris), although it's much less user friendly."
"Visio is more user-friendly."
"We would like to have a better ability to customize PegaRULES."
"The product's artificial intelligence capabilities could be improved. More advanced AI features could further optimize process automation and decision-making."
"If it could also be integrated with robotics, it could help with a lot of things, even if we don't have APIs, we could still talk to other applications. If it could invoke a bot, for example."
"We need more light retail BPM tools within the Pega system. However, Pega is mostly for big companies."
"Stability issues: Product failed to start periodically with no tolerance to database outages."
"UI needs improvement."
"Customers expect more out-of-box solutions to be readily available"
"PegaRULES should provide a more drag-and-drop interface to make it a low-code, no-code product."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Our license is a subscription-based model that is per user. The solution is not expensive, I believe a subscription-based model is $10 per user."
"The licensing part is one of the problems. Its licensing depends on the number of users, so it sometimes gets expensive."
"Earlier, the licensing part was complex because there were so many modules and elements in the tool. Over the last one and a half years, a lot of work has gone into how the product has priced and positioned its tools in the market."
"My company is trying to replace iGrafx because the license is a little bit expensive."
"I have heard that the solution's pricing is very competitive."
"Licensing is expensive. You need to wisely select between per user and per case."
"The price could be lower."
"The price is a bit expensive."
"The solution could be less expensive according to my customers. However, I think the price of the solution is fair."
"We mostly have a yearly license."
"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."
"Its pricing is on the higher side, but they have come up with different plans and different small products that can be used by smaller organizations that don't have that much money to spend. They have different pricing packages depending on the number of users or depending upon the number of cases created in the production or live environment."
"The licensing model for Pega BPM needs to be improved."
