We performed a comparison between FICO Blaze Advisor and PegaRULES based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Business Rules Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The feature that I have found most valuable is that it has a fast engine for decisioning."
"The solution is customizable, so you can create your own data items and variables to suit your needs."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is the algorithm they use in the retail version. The execution there is very optimized - so even though we have a huge service with huge counter rules, we still get the results in milliseconds. That is something amazing I found about this tool."
"The rules management application is the best feature because BAs or even, perhaps, a businessperson, can directly create rules, change rules, and deploy them to production directly."
"The most valuable feature is the IDE."
"The solution is very stable."
"FICO Blaze Advisor's most valuable features are the analytics, the code change is not required, and even a business analyst can do that change in the rules when we set it up."
"The most valuable feature of the product is that it's very customer-centric. It's easy to use for a customer or a user. It's also easy for someone who is developing an application. You can develop different features in just one place. You don't have to go to different places."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of deployment."
"The visualization of the business process and the collaboration aspects of the solution are its most valuable features."
"In certain circumstances, it can be fairly straightforward to execute and deploy new modifications."
"Offers a unique environment where its entire architecture is very unified"
"What I found most valuable in PegaRULES is that it allows you to quickly make changes to an existing application. It's pretty easy to do any modification in the tool, which you cannot do in legacy solutions. For example, it takes a lot of time to do it in Java or in .NET. I have worked with both legacy technologies in the past, so that I can tell the difference."
"The latest releases of PegaRULES are scalable, advanced, and can be easily integrated into your environment."
"We find the product to be scalable."
"FICO Blaze Advisor is still missing things for maintaining the version of something. For example, we have gates for programming, for storing, or scripts. In there, one developer can prepare a file or a piece of code or something, and another developer can work on the same code or on the same text file or something, and you can manage it. This is missing in FICO Blaze Advisor."
"I would like to see more help on the internet and more training over the internet. They only have a few blogs there, so that should be increased."
"More online support such as a knowledge base should be available."
"FICO needs to provide a better user experience and user interface."
"The developer's tools on their optimized version should be a little bit more user friendly. Additionally, it really doesn't pick up the actual exception or error of what the developers are getting."
"Lacks notifications when code changes have been made."
"The initial setup of FICO Blaze Advisor was somewhat complex. The implementation took approximately three to four months. However, I left halfway through the process, I am not sure of the exact timeframe."
"The UI needs reworking."
"The solution needs to invest more in its technology. For public and private clouds, for example, the development environment is slow. Saving events should take one to two seconds, max, and because you are making changes often, the slowness cuts down on productivity because we have to wait for things to save before continuing."
"The UI needs improvement."
"Implementation is a challenge due to the handling of the code"
"What PegaRULES should work on is the integration aspect. I can integrate it with other platforms, but that can take time. It would be good if integration could be automated or if the tool had more out-of-the-box integration features."
"PegaRULES should provide a more drag-and-drop interface to make it a low-code, no-code product."
"Customers expect more out-of-box solutions to be readily available"
"The UI has always been the weakest part."
