Configuring the Estimated Application Savings report

Updated on December 3, 2021

The Estimated Application Savings report calculates the savings achieved using Pega Customer Service by comparing the call duration for a service process against an average benchmark for the same process run in a legacy system. The time savings are then multiplied by a cost factor to apply a dollar value to the savings achieved.
