Frees up employee time but can't run when computer system is locked
Something that could be improved is that this solution can't run when the computer is locked, which meant we had to implement it in our own on-prem server as it never auto-locks. It would be better if, when we have scheduled a scenario, it would log into the system automatically.

Has raised concerns due to outdated framework and high ownership costs
Pega Robotic Process Automation is a temporary solution to a bigger issue, and the cost of implementation especially with Pega really stops customers from proceeding. The total cost of ownership could be improved. From a technical perspective, the product performs adequately. The installation can be quite complex as it's not standalone, and customers need to get the whole Pega platform up and running. The total cost of ownership is not very attractive. RPA as a concept is outdated now, with agentic AI becoming more prominent. We don't see much interest from customers in going down the RPA route; Pega Robotic Process Automation is losing its prominence in the market.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This software is very smart - it can decide from a picture if we like that condition, and then the robot will do that action."
"The tool's most valuable feature is data import. The OCR feature helps to recognize the data. It can recognize screen and document numbers well."
"Pega Robotics offers all the required features to build end-to-end process automation like any other similar tools. It's unique development style using data line and control flow line makes it easy to debug through the flow."
"If you want to make any kind of base automation, you can easily code exactly what you want."
"Pega is very mature. It's very old. They have grown with time, and they have learned. Other robotic process automation solutions are basically focused on only doing the automation, whereas Pega also gives you a workflow system so that you can create a workflow."
"It helped cut short the release cycle by almost 40% compared to the previous solution.​"
"The number of human steps that have been eliminated is significant, and we try to maximize straight-through processing."
"Using the tool actually ends up teaching you about making workflows more efficient."
"The initial setup is pretty easy and quite fast."
"Pega Robotic Process Automation makes it easy with metrics, robots save time, and handling customer calls became much easier."
 

Cons

"The OCR has issues recognizing handwritten data."
"Something that could be improved is that this solution can't run when the computer is locked, which meant we had to implement it in our own on-prem server as it never auto-locks."
"It is still a niche skill and resources are scarce in the market unless big IT companies are involved."
"There is no two-dimensional lookup table implemented."
"I would like to see an enhanced auditing feature included."
"I would like to improve the tool's integration features and stability."
"It is still a niche skill and resources are scarce in the market unless big IT companies are involved."
"Pega Robotic Process Automation using OpenSpan has a very low adoption because it does not provide the flexibility that UiPath or Automation Anywhere offers, which includes more benefits such as the bot manager."
"The OCR capabilities of the solution could be improved."
"The way integration classes are created could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We pay yearly for the agent who runs the processes, plus an additional fee for maintenance costs."
"The licensing cost is too high."
"Pega Robotic Process Automation is an expensive solution."
"Pega is as competitive as the basic players such as UiPath or Automation Anywhere. UiPath is the most expensive, but Pega is at par with Automation Anywhere."
"Pega is pretty costly."
"I would rate the product's pricing a nine out of ten."
"In terms of Pega Robotic Process Automation pricing, I would rate it a five out of five because the solution has a good price. Pricing is not very high, though I'm unsure of the exact cost, based on my experience, the price for Pega Robotic Process Automation is less than Blue Prism because I worked with a few clients that have both solutions and my clients prefer Pega Robotic Process Automation over Blue Prism particularly because of the licensing costs."
"​I was not involved in licensing and pricing, but it is worth the cost​."
