Find out in this report how the two Rapid Application Development Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The interface is quite simple and easy to use, even for beginners."
"The case management is great."
"It is easy to use, easy to understand, easy to implement and easy to enhance and we can do it as a Cloud. Also it is very user friendly."
"The case management functionality of this solution has been most valuable."
"Pricing is a little on the high side."
"The most valuable feature of Pega BPM is its architecture."
"The product helps you to build faster."
"The robotic process automation has increased the confidence of business users."
"It is low-code. We are able to go in and create apps quickly. It is very helpful for the size of our company. We're a mid-size company, and at this moment, we don't need anything externally. We don't have to go out and consult a consulting firm to build something from the ground up. So, the ease of that and being able to get development quickly up and running has been good for us."
"The most valuable feature of QuickBase is its dynamic form capabilities. These forms allow backend automation, making tasks like updating data based on specific conditions much easier."
"Creating applications in Quickbase will take, literally, a fraction of the time it would take to create them in other database applications (which shall remain unnamed)."
"We have made good use of the ability in QuickBase to add multiple apps for various departments and purposes, while some apps are shared."
"The product is easy to use."
"I am impressed with the product's automation which makes everything easy."
"The usability of QuickBase largely depends on how you design your workflows within the platform. If you keep them simple and straightforward, it can be a highly usable product."
"It has helped streamline and simply track status and collection of data from suppliers and other internal departments."
"What should be included is some UI features and maybe some integrations. This includes documentation on how the UI works."
"We have experienced a few technical challenges, particularly triggering the workflow through file drops and accessing files."
"Pega BPM's documentation should be improved, especially for freshers or new trainees."
"It's called a local platform but on the other hand, it needs a lot of experience. It's not all that easy to click and plug and play. If you really want to use all the features out of this platform, you definitely need a lot of experience and a lot of training to get there."
"Pega is claiming they're into low code but as per Gartner Magic Quadrant, Pega is not there now."
"Pega Cloud early adoption and use for cross enterprise capability was new to many. The early adoption meant version 2.0 of their cloud service may require refactoring and redesign of some services."
"Reporting is not so clear and not so great. We really struggle to get the right reporting. When we need reporting based on the content of the tickets, we are not able to get it. The MIS reporting is not great. That's one of the reasons why we are switching to ServiceNow. Its compatibility with the higher versions of Internet Explorer should be improved. It really works well in Mozilla Firefox or any other browser, but when it comes to Microsoft Edge or Internet Explorer, sometimes, the layout gets disturbed. The positioning of the buttons changes, and there is some distortion in the layout. I am not sure whether it is our configuration problem or Pega's, but when it is working in Mozilla Firefox, it should also work in Microsoft Edge or Internet Explorer."
"The UI part needs improvement."
"The dashboard is not organized."
"I would like to see the reporting enhanced because some of them are not easy to generate."
"The product works constantly to modernize the platform and they have made quite a lot of strides in that. I would like them to add additional features that would help us make API calls."
"Unfortunately, there is still no new report formatting available natively, and would still require 3rd party developers to help with that. ."
"Whenever we do onboarding, or we get new employees, there tends to be a delay of not just a week but a couple of weeks, and sometimes even a few weeks of being able to see certain new employees in the system."
"I would like the product to add more working processes."
"There is room for improvement in terms of user-friendliness."
"They could enhance the ability to link records between tables directly without the need for additional automation to increase space and time."
