Overall Satisfaction with Pega 7 Platform

We are building a Strategic Customer Service desktop [application] for Anthem Customer Service department to help and manage inquiries, questions by members.
  • Easy to use Workflow
  • Better User Experience
  • Out of Box Reporting
  • For new developer its hard to get used to PEGA terminology and lingo (esp. developers switching from Java, .NET Background) - Need better initial training.
  • Better analytics capabilities and seamless integration with other advance reporting tools.
  • It would be helpful if the UI designer was WYSIWYG.
  • API Integrations options are limited - Streaming support was missing.
  • It's helping improve our average handle time
  • It's helping our CSRs to get information in a centralized location to help answer questions for our members
  • Workflow Automation and efficient Customer Service Process Management
The enterprise application team did a detailed evaluation to compare against customer service department needs and evaluated Workflow, UI, Rules Management, Out of Box features, Technology, scalability, Integration options etc., and based on the scoring decided to go with PEGA 7.
It's better suited for developing applications which are business workflow oriented and involve multiple departments and groups to collaborate to accomplish the task.
