PegaRULES is utilized to streamline the progression of a case or business process, guiding users through various stages and steps required to accomplish a specific task. PegaRULES offers built-in functionality for reporting and provides a basic user interface. It is currently implemented on an older version of the Pega platform, specifically Pega 7.1.7 or 7.2, which may employ technologies, such as Cosmos.

Seamless flows, high level capabilities, and straightforward installation
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
One of the key advantages of PegaRULES is its out-of-the-box capabilities, which eliminate the need to build certain functionalities from scratch. For instance, features like "get next" in process flows allow for the seamless continuation of a flow without the requirement of additional activity creation. This serves as an illustration of how existing components can be leveraged rather than starting from scratch. It provides a solid foundation, to begin with, and allows for enhancements at a higher level, making it a beneficial starting point.
What needs improvement?
There is room for potential improvement in the performance of PegaRULES, as well as the need to address any existing security concerns. It should be noted that working with an older version of Pega, rather than the latest 8.x versions, may limit certain capabilities and leave room for vulnerabilities that could benefit from increased attention. Furthermore, the user interface (UI) could be a candidate for enhancements. It is worth mentioning that newer versions of Pega may have introduced improvements in these areas.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using PegaRULES for approximately five years.
How are customer service and support?
At times, I find PegaRULES to be a bit convoluted, although I don't rely heavily on their technical support. Instead, I usually turn to their Pega Product Network (PPN) to seek assistance when I encounter challenges. It proves helpful to see what others are writing and sharing on the platform.
One aspect I am not fond of when it comes to PegaRules is their training. The training methodology often feels disjointed and lacks clarity, making it difficult to grasp the concepts they are trying to convey. Personally, I have struggled to understand their training materials based on my own experience.
I rate the support from PegaRULES a seven out of ten.
