Cons
"I feel like it doesn't get updated frequently enough. There aren't a lot of new features or a clear roadmap for future improvements.""It is still a niche skill and resources are scarce in the market unless big IT companies are involved.""Rule versioning and deployment to enable parallel development could still be improved​""Pega Robotic Process Automation can improve the OGR area. You don't have a feature to read documents in computer voices.""They have tied the deployment with the Pega BPM product, the robot manager. You need to have the BPM installed.""There have been some scenarios where the bot was not able to replace some of the controls and could not recognize and personalize the task we wanted to automate.""I would like to see an enhanced auditing feature included.""The way integration classes are created could be improved."

More Pega Robotic Process Automation Cons →

"There is a lot of missing data and data latency issues between the different modules of SAP CRM, which creates a lot of problems.""There could be some specific configurable options on the UI level to improve visibility.""Content management is one area where SAP CRM could use some work because we were seeking a CRM solution that could store BLOB data, like PDF and email data, which takes up a lot of space in the database. Recently, we migrated to a content server, but it would be nice if CRM had built-in BLOB data management because BLOB data is a challenge we've been dealing with since last year.""Improvement is needed for SAP CRM's integration with Microsoft Teams and Outlook Its integration with Microsoft collaboration software, including Teams, Outlook, and SharePoint, is not very good. There are issues with synchronization between appointments in CRM and Outlook, as well as challenges with managing contacts, which creates problems.""SAP CRM could improve by making the solution more current, it is out of date. There are no more updates for SAP CRM.""The B2C features of SAP are strong, but they are not very known to the public and companies. They must make it more known for B2C applications or B2C use cases.""The solution is slow.""The navigation must be improved."
