AntonioCardone - PeerSpot reviewer
Enables a data-driven approach to process analysis and helps generate cost savings
This tool allows me to discover value before discussing technology. It's the first solution that combines business competence and capabilities with technological capabilities. With Celonis, I discuss processes and root causes, analyzing the bottleneck resource process. There is an app centered around a data-driven approach. I can create the model and, in a data-driven way, map processes using technology that supports people in investigative activities by finding root causes where processes falter. Celonis emphasizes that these goals aim to generate cost optimization.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like that the product allows users to connect to different source systems like SAP, ServiceNow, and Salesforce."
"We can observe the flow and invoices."
"In my opinion, it's quite an advanced tool."
"My two favorite features are execution management and process intelligence, which provide 360-degree data."
"The training material is good. The information is very systematic, detailed, and comprehensive. They have a training video for almost every single thing, which makes it easier to know how to use the tool."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten. Celonis is a wonderful tool, so you cannot find any drawbacks at the right moment."
"The most valuable features are process mining, task mining, business analytics, and machine learning."
"It provides a visualization of the process itself, giving a very good synthesis of performance and helping me find improvements."
"Predominantly, it enables financial services organizations to build up process knowledge and improve operational efficiency."
"One of the most valuable things about process intelligence is that it allows you to mine data over a long period of time, such as one or two years. This gives us a deep understanding of how your processes actually work."
"The product helps us build solid business use cases."
"The most valuable feature is the integration model."
"The product is relatively user friendly, it does what you need it to do."
"The backend is great."
"The product's best feature is the connection and integration between all of the capabilities."
"I like the tool's ability to visualize the entire process flow, how the process flow flows, and what deviations happen from the process flow. It also helps to figure out the process bottlenecks."
 

Cons

"They should leverage the solution's machine learning algorithms."
"Celonis isn't particularly useful when you have many manual processes without systems or back-office."
"For example, we would like to see improvement of the simulation capabilities to include a BPMN-compliant modeler. That is, we would like to be able to connect the simulation to the BPMN modeler. I think it's one of the features that is missing in Celonis."
"The marketplace should offer process connectors for Oracle JDEdwards, and Peoplesoft."
"Lacks a couple of algorithms that can better identify bottlenecks and provide a better view of them."
"It would help if they had more integrations and automation features."
"The task mining feature of Celonis needs improvement because it's more challenging than it looks."
"The cost could be improved."
"The area that could be improved in SAP Signavio Process Intelligence is its Journey modeling feature."
"The solution is not very intuitive. It is very complicated to use."
"SAP Signavio Process Intelligence slows down when you feed a lot of data. It needs to improve its processing ability. The tool should also incorporate AI features that can automate things. Many of the competitors have this feature."
"The UI could be improved."
"Interface could be more user friendly."
"The product doesn't allow me to focus on a particular value stream and how the value stream performs."
"The challenge for a solution that utilizes modeling notations, is that the look and feel of the models (e.g. in BPMN) is pre-defined."
"It should be able to convert business workflows into media documents quickly."
