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."I'm a decision-maker, not a technician. From my perspective, the most significant advantage is that Azure is a one-stop shop. Everything we needed was included in the Microsoft Agreement. During COVID, it was the most convenient and most straightforward decision."
"It's very easy to use. That's one of the advantages for the business, that you don't need to struggle to configure your website and your app service. Microsoft made sure to make it stable and very easy to configure."
"The stability of Microsoft Azure App Service is good."
"One valuable feature of Azure App Service for us is its integration with Azure DevOps, which we heavily rely on in our development process."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Azure App Service is customization. It provides the building block from its modularity. You can add what you need with the appropriate code."
"The program is stable and we've had no technical issues so far."
"We are able to do millions of things simultaneously."
"Azure data factory is a good tool."
"The solution offers excellent workflows."
"Pricing is a little on the high side."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"The best part of Pega, for me, is that they let you reuse a lot of the aspects in the product."
"The most valuable aspect of the solution is the various workflows."
"The case management is great."
"It is quite configurable, which is the most exciting feature. We can easily configure it as per our needs."
"This is a customizable product."
"Microsoft Azure App Service could improve by having better integration and connectivity with other platforms. The solution has good integration with other large companies' solutions but there are smaller service platforms companies where there could be integrated better."
"Microsoft Azure App Service could improve by having better integration with on-premise solutions."
"When trying to scale up, it has a limitation, specifically an upper limitation. In general, scalability should be improved."
"The setup is complex if you have no experience."
"Lacking somewhat in template data flows."
"In terms of room for improvement, ease of deployment would be an area that needs some focus. Azure does provide out-of-the-box deployment features, but I found that deploying to an App Service instance can be better in terms of more tools that could be available to perform a deployment."
"Microsoft Azure App Service needs some improvement in the scaling area."
"If you're on the cloud, you just get a web interface without much detail for additional configuration or the authority to configure the root or system-level configuration."
"They are currently spending some time on improving the product with respect to machine learning, especially related to robotic automation. They probably could be a little more adept on that area would help."
"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."
"The UI part needs improvement."
"The way the IDE works with the chatbox and the taxonomy imports could be a little smoother."
"It needs more integration with other platforms."
"I think there is room for improvement in the low code/ no code environment that they're promoting now. That needs to be aligned a little bit more. I still feel that it is not that friendly for a person who has no experience with Pega to just go in and try to create something."
"One of the areas of this solution that could be improved would be to advance the low code features of the application itself. We would also like to use the same platform to build any application, even if it is not necessarily defined as a functionality needed by a BPM."
"The main problem with Pega is that it is quite complex, so it is very difficult for the developer to learn."
