We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The workflow system is very intuitive.""The tech support is highly available and there is plenty of online training available.""It is really flexible in what it can do.""The feature I like best in Pega Robotic Process Automation is that I'm able to add external DLL section codes. I can inject the JavaScript, and I can write VB.NET, C#.NET, and DLL codes, then inject those codes into the existing process. Mainly, from a development perspective, I like that feature a lot, so if anything is not supported by Pega Robotic Process Automation, then I can build that either in JavaScript or in .NET, then use those functions within the IP.""They are leaders in the same industry.""Pega is very mature. It's very old. They have grown with time, and they have learned. Other robotic process automation solutions are basically focused on only doing the automation, whereas Pega also gives you a workflow system so that you can create a workflow.""The low-code/no-code development aspect of the solution is great.""We have a very large operational team and we are able to avoid mistakes and ensure accuracy and speed using Pega."

"I don't have the specific details, but I'm aware that Salesforce is used for campaigns, decision-making processes, and order submissions. I'm currently in the learning phase and not familiar with all the details.""The interface is quite user-friendly.""The strength lies in its ability to work cohesively with other systems, creating a centralized hub that enhances efficiency and collaboration across various functionalities within our organization.""The three major pillars of Salesforce Service Cloud are the SSL, Chatter, and the Dispatcher Console, which routes calls to the technicians.""It is a stable product.""The product's initial setup phase was straightforward.""It's a cloud tool, so it is easy to set up.""The most valuable feature of Salesforce Service Cloud is its ease of use."

Cons
"Pega has a no-code low-code environment. We do everything based on established rules. You kind-of have to learn how all their rules work and how it works for robotics before you can use the solution effectively.""I would like to see an enhanced auditing feature included.""You cannot use a two-dimensional array to read the data.""The new players such as UiPath and ABBYY are moving very quickly, but Pega is not. I'd definitely like to see Pega doing a few more interesting things on the AI or machine learning front so that we can use the platform for multiple things.""The orchestration needs to be better.""Pega Robotic Process Automation can improve the OGR area. You don't have a feature to read documents in computer voices.""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.""The development experience needs to be improved."

More Pega Robotic Process Automation Cons →

"The documentation could be improved.""The pricing for what Salesforce Service Cloud offers is not great.""The pricing of the solution can be made cheaper.""The integrations with other solutions can be improved.""Salesforce should include maps as a default offering so that, as a customer, I can view where the technician is on the geographical map.""I'm not deeply engaged with this team, so I don't have extensive experience with it. As you mentioned, I haven't used it much yet, so my experience is limited.""One minor drawback is that its implementation requires some preparation. It's not something you can implement instantly; it takes time. The only issue I've encountered is that you need to ensure the implementation is done properly, which can be time-consuming. So, it requires some time and attention.""There is room for improvement in pricing."
