Process mining has delivered major savings and now needs better automation and task mining
Collaboration with ERPs should be improved. Compared to SAP Signavio, Celonis is less competitive for BPMN modeling. Deployment flexibility needs enhancement, as on-premises support is not as strong as SaaS support. The most important area for improvement is the automation part. End-to-end automation capabilities are desired. Currently, workflows are being used, but actions should be able to go via email, task, APIs, and ultimately write back to the source. Adding RPA capability that can interact with required systems and write back to the source would greatly enhance Celonis. Task mining capabilities also require improvement. UiPath Process Mining and Microsoft Process Mining have better task mining capabilities compared to Celonis. Usability and support from Celonis need improvement. They should help clients find more value in the product. Cost is another significant concern, as Celonis is very expensive compared to other process mining tools. The license cost should be reduced. Celonis should establish partnerships with clients to find more use cases and maximize the value gained from Celonis.

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."
"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."
"Celonis is a good idea to change the way processes are considered in a company."
"My two favorite features are execution management and process intelligence, which provide 360-degree data."
"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."
"One of the vital features is the solution's easy integration with varying sources"
"It is a very strong and very powerful solution. You can seamlessly process a large amount of data. It doesn't take a long time to do the analysis. It provides the analysis matrix, which basically includes all the analytics that need to be performed for the transactions. You can drill down really fast within graphics. You can double click and drill down to specific areas for more details. It is very intuitive and easy to use."
"They have a very unique product because it gives the user a dashboard, and end-users can easily evaluate the differences and get the required output."
"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

"Celonis should have the ability to automate in the next release, in my opinion."
"Licenses are costly and calculated based on APC and the number of users."
"The product must focus on training for low-code and no-code people."
"It would be helpful if they could categorize processes into tier levels."
"I have experienced lags in response times from customer service. We are not always receiving responses on time."
"The data modeling features could be more intuitive."
"I have chosen a rating of eight out of ten for Celonis because of the pricing factor, and I believe much can be improved in the visualization."
"Usability and support from Celonis need improvement."
"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

"I rate Celonis' pricing a ten out of ten because it is expensive."
"Once we try to scale it up, the product becomes expensive."
"It is only affordable for large or public companies."
"The cost of the software for us or the client is on the higher end."
"The solution requires an annual license. There is room for improvement because it is priced for organizations and not for individuals. For an individual, it would be too expensive for them to use it."
"The solution’s pricing is high when compared to other process mining tools."
"The product is pretty expensive but reasonable."
"Though Celonis is a bit pricey, it is worth it."
"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."
