Process mining expertise has uncovered root causes and is driving revenue-focused decisions
There are a few things about Celonis that need improvement. One specific limitation is in the view module; when creating a filter bar, I cannot resize the filter section beyond the default size provided by Celonis. If I wish to include more than 15 filters, I cannot do so due to this limitation. Additionally, I feel that Copilot feature has several areas for improvement, as it sometimes gets stuck after providing a few responses, requiring me to restart the chat. For specific incidents, if I mention an incident with a certain service tier, the system uses the like operator and shows related results that may not be exactly what I need, which I have already raised with Celonis support team for resolution.

Powerful tool, beneficial process mining variants, and scalable
The initial setup of Process Mining Group ProM was easy for me. However, I have been an application manager for quite some time and I am not comparable to the average person. I was able to install the solution within a few minutes. Additionally, we use the solution for summer school, we have to develop course material around it.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I have found the automatic mapping of the processes themselves to be a valuable feature."
"Celonis is a good idea to change the way processes are considered in a company."
"We use the tool for supply chain transformation. The tool has helped us find the bottlenecks in the supply chain like where the delay occurred in delivery, payment, etc. We had to extract two years' of data from the SAP system and an internal tool. We fed the data into Celonis and it created a process map for us with hundreds of variations. It has helped us see where exactly the bottleneck was. The tool has also helped us generate a lot of reviews and KPIs. It has helped us to find the problem and the remedy through process optimization."
"The process mapping is most valuable to us."
"My advice to others looking into using Celonis is to ensure before evaluating the product that your use case or process can fit into the tool."
"Action Flows are good."
"It provides seamless unified views with awesome drill down options."
"The real-time replication was just implemented and is quite useful."
"The most valuable feature of Process Mining Group ProM is the toolkit it provides all kinds of variants of process mining. They have one option that you can visualize which processes you mine, and that's a very powerful tool."
 

Cons

"I would really appreciate it if Celonis had significant compatibility with robotic process automation solutions. Once they define the process and understand it, streamline it, optimize it, and take inputs around it. When they reconfigure the process, there should be good compatibility with any of the automation tools, wherein I can integrate for robotic process automation, where I can streamline many of these processes on the application itself. Today, I need to extract this process and reload it into other tools, like UiPath, to integrate them with Automation Anywhere. If this tool can provide that efficiency, that would be great. I'm a data analytics guy. I lead a data analytics team. So technically, I would primarily look at if this can give me a visualization opportunity and integrate that in terms of the data."
"In the solution, you have access to how the process is, and are able to integrate that with other systems that allow you to make changes to the process itself, this process can be improved."
"With Celonis, the way to use the product is one of the main difficulties users face in our company."
"We would like this solution to be more flexible in how it interacts with other cloud-based database solutions, so that we can operate more seamlessly."
"One area for improvement is that, while Celonis has existing APIs for some domains like accounts, it lacks ready-made ones for others, like financial services. This means we need to customize our data channels so the data can be used by Celonis."
"It would help if they had more integrations and automation features."
"They need to provide readymade value stream mapping."
"The cost could be improved."
"Process Mining Group ProM could improve user-friendliness and the error messages that are provided are not helpful for end users."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Though Celonis is a bit pricey, it is worth it."
"Celonis is the most expensive solution in the market"
"Celonis offers free learning possibilities. I am using the free version of Celonis."
"The product is pretty expensive but reasonable."
"It is only affordable for large or public companies."
"Once we try to scale it up, the product becomes expensive."
"It is an expensive solution."
"The solution’s pricing is high when compared to other process mining tools."
"Process Mining Group ProM is an open-source solution that is free from the University of Eindhoven. Additionally, students can use it for one month after they have done some practicing with it."
