Pros
"It is working fine so far. I haven't heard anything bad about it from the applications team that is using it, so I assume that it is doing okay.""Newgen will structure the system based on all the requirements of the business. We can design the forms as complex forms or make our own versions to fix what's wrong.""They are a good team that is proactive, and they are trying to accommodate all of our requirements.""The most valuable feature is the flexibility in using it.""The most valuable features of Newgen OmniFlow are the user interface, the low-code no-code designer tools, and the integration models are important.""The most valuable feature for us is the Omnicon. That made sense for us because our company is now able to capture information from documents.""The UI is easy. It's not very code based, so you can make certain changes on your end."

"The most valuable feature is flexibility, as we can configure it to best suit our requirements.""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 features of Pega BPM are low code, no code, functionality, and easy development.""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.""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.""This is a customizable product.""The solution offers excellent workflows.""Allowed us to develop and quickly release with confidence using cloud technologies."

Cons
"I would like to see more automated analytics built into the solution.""Newgen OmniFlow could improve by having more out-of-the-box integration modules. It would be beneficial to have an analytics model that is not currently present.""At the system level, I would like to see things be much more flexible, especially for different document templates and introducing changes.""The development teams should be more agile and they need to have more team members.""In terms of stability, like every product it has its issues.""We had consistent issues of Newgen OmniFlow crashing. It's not compatible with bounce browsers like Chrome.""There should be some reporting and dashboarding capabilities. I don't see such capabilities built into it. Sometimes, the leadership wants to understand the business cases that we want to automate. We face a lot of challenges to justify why we are using Newgen, and we need a way to present that to the leadership. If there is something out of the box and if we can get meaningful dashboards and reporting capabilities, it would be helpful."

More Newgen OmniFlow Cons →

"We have experienced a few technical challenges, particularly triggering the workflow through file drops and accessing files.""Pega BPM could improve the UI, it is poorly designed to have a good UX experience.""Business specific functionality is needed.""They need to support the solution better, at this time the company does not have enough support.""Pega BPM's documentation should be improved, especially for freshers or new trainees.""I would like to see Pega BPM improve the user experience.""This is an expensive solution.""First-time customers will find its licensing tricky. The technical support team for this solution could be faster in resolving tickets."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Overall, this solution is very cost effective when compared to other solutions in the market."
  • "Its price is a bit on the high side, but that's okay. From a company perspective, it is reasonable."
  • "The price of Newgen OmniFlow is priced reasonably."
  • "The on-prem solution is affordable. The cloud solution is more expensive. There are no additional costs to the standard licensing fees."
  • More Newgen OmniFlow Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Licensing is expensive. You need to wisely select between per user and per case."
  • "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."
  • "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 licensing fees are based on the number of users."
  • "May be somewhat more expensive than other solutions initially, but should have enhanced return on investment."
  • "The price of this solution, including installation and configuration, is comparable to competing vendors."
  • "The pricing is pretty good, compared to other similar products."
  • "It's a user-based license where, as you scale the numbers of users, the price increases."
