Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution is very easy to use.""The most valuable feature is the ability to pull information about the customer on-the-fly so they feel the interaction is more personal.""The case management feature is really valuable.""One of the most valuable features of Pega CRM for our team's productivity is its ease of setup, thanks to its configuration-driven approach.""Great flexibility and its locking mechanism enable multiple users to work on the same case seamlessly.""We can effortlessly manage the data within it, and it offers ease of use and high flexibility to present the data across various vendors.""Pega offers a clear parent-child case relationship that's easily created and maintained. Dependencies can be configured, where reaching a specific stage in a parent case automatically triggers a child task in a child case, while the parent case remains on hold until a certain condition is met before moving forward. This configuration allows multiple users to work on cases in parallel. Many of these settings are readily available within Pega case settings. Overall, Pega's case management is unparalleled compared to other options.""It also reduces the duration per call, and it ensures a first time resolution of the issue."

"The tool's most valuable feature is the service portal.""The setup phase of the solution was straightforward...Regarding the product's user interface, there is an in-built portal developed by ServiceNow, which is good.""We can integrate different technologies in ServiceNow Customer Service Management. An organization would like to offer a digital transformative experience to its employees and customers, which the tool can offer. It can be integrated with any external system. There are also automation possibilities.""Overall, I like the workflow capabilities, orchestration, and integration with existing business apps. The product is awesome in terms of capabilities.""What I like best about ServiceNow Customer Service Management is that it's a good tool. I like how fast it is and that it's cloud-based. I also like that it's very easy to use. ServiceNow Customer Service Management has minimum options, for example, column options and tab options when compared to other solutions, which makes it easier to use over others."

Cons
"The UI is lagging and needs to be improved.""The solution has room for improvement around decisional and real-time data analysis.""The disadvantage of the tool stems from the fact that it does not allow users to make database-level modifications.""There has been a common acknowledgment among customers that this solution is an expensive tool and they often opt for cheaper tools like Comodo""The UI should be improved.""They should enable the data-driven streaming feature inside it.""It would be beneficial to enhance the pricing and support implementation options as they are currently quite expensive.""For many of the clients, they have a separate system or separate layer of UI and a separate layer of the business rules engine, which Pega has taken care of in the recent releases."

"The product lacks customization capabilities. In the future, the product should include more options for customization to be able to meet the demands of the customers.""The solution seems to be moving towards low-code/no-code technology. It is a negative aspect of my experience with the product. It also needs to introduce a clearer pricing structure.""The price could be better. ServiceNow should price products more reasonably.""The product's AI feature should be improved.""ServiceNow Customer Service Management works fine for me, for now, so there isn't any room for improvement I see in it. In the next release of the tool, I'd like users to be able to download all reports because as a user, I can only download a limited number of reports from ServiceNow Customer Service Management, but my management team can do so. I'm unsure if it's a feature that's included in the tool or not."
