The best opportunities to create beautiful and complete reports. The presence of many functions that extend functionality. Simplicity and clarity of system settings. Frequent product updates with the addition of new functionality. Availability of technical support-usually all questions I get an answer in 2-3 days. A good set of partner material which contains many examples of presentations for different business areas. Availability of content store with a set of ready-made reports on the analysis of most business processes such as procurement, sales, incident management, etc.for the most famous programs. Ability to create reports using different languages (localization for users) Availability of license options: annual subscription or purchase of perpetual license A good affiliate program - actively support partners who provide a demo version that provides training. Actively create local success stories-on youtube you can find many success stories in different languages
Weak documentation-all questions have to contact technical support. All the knowledge is concentrated in the minds of developers and they have to get hard every time. The cost per license is high compared to competing solutions.
Improving the efficiency of business processes. The lack of a single point of "truth" in the company where there is all the information about how the processes actually work.
Business user and decision maker compatibility. Most other big data tools are targeted or require IT users. Celonis is different. Once the platform stands, the data models are defined and some basic / initial dashboards have been setup, business users that can do Excel and Power Point just need a little training mostly in terms of understanding and they can depart on their own and will love this tool, its speed and ease of use to get answers and insights
License policy could be better especially around the content store. Also Celonis growing rapidly so capacity is of course a challenge. But so far this was not a problem. Our sales rep and customer success manager are perfect.
Identified new levels of process improvements in short time. Fact based instead of gut based discussions. for example improvement of working capital through faster cycle times in order to cash or cost saving through higher levels of automation or ensuring the investment taken in process improvements earlier are actually working out as designed.
I love the ability to quickly explore huge amounts of data. Quickly going from 6 million records to a focused few based on very flexible criteria has been a game changer. The process visualizations and KPIs have allowed our Lean/Six Sigma team to become much more effective by allowing them to zero in on problem areas without having to create ad hoc reports or conduct the standard "process explanation" discussions.
Sometimes the paradigm shift from standard BI reporting to Process Mining can be a little difficult for people to grasp. This really isn't a fault of the Celonis product, but an educational battle we're fighting now that Celonis is gaining popularity at our organization.
We've cut down cycle times in our order to cash processes in partnership with our internal Lean/Six Sigma organization. We're able to track productivity and throughput time improvements related to IT enhancements as well.
I recently had the opportunity to explore the Celonis Foundation, and it left a lasting impression on my understanding of process optimization. The foundation's commitment to empowering organizations with cutting-edge technology is commendable.
Learning Curve: While the interface is intuitive, mastering the full capabilities of Celonis Foundation may require a bit of a learning curve. More guided tutorials could be beneficial for new users. Access Limitations: As a student, I faced some challenges accessing certain advanced features. A more flexible access policy for educational users could enhance the learning experience.
Solution: Celonis identifies inefficient processes by analyzing event logs, providing a visual representation of how processes are executed. Benefit: This helps streamline workflows, reduce redundancies, and improve overall operational efficiency.
It is evolving at high pace and it's all about making business processes more efficient you can mine, analyse and create dashboards for visualisation at the same platform and many more things like automate your business processes. So much to do and so much to learn with Celonis.
Well the same thing it's evolution at high and it's changing daily from navigation to everything you literally have to be in touch with the tool daily to keep up.
The deviation a process go through and what should be the ideal steps and what we can do to make it more efficient and how to do it.Also, make it less human centric and tell where we can reduce or remove human error by automating the step or the whole process.
Celonis is the best process mining tool that others, I really loved to working on Celonis, its Data transformation, Data modeling and analysis best way to map the process and handle the data as per business requirements.
Sometimes getting kind of glitch or error while working on Celonis but Celonis team will support us to resolve them.
Celonis support to understand how process is going through and helps us fulfill business requirements as per the need.
Celonis is very much efficient and easy to use for process mining. Importantly realted to SAP and other popular data sources. When you compare with other competitors like Signavio, Celonis is powerful mainly the Action flows giving Celonis more power. As of my knowledge having more than 8 years of experience in Business process automation which includes RPA and some workflow technolgies. Actions flows is so efficient and have many ready to use connectors for all most all of the cloud products, No other competitor in the indistry have the same capabilities, And the object centric process mining is a revolutionary in this domain of process mining and process analysis. It is giving more clear insights and undestanding for business users. The filtering of results is very simple and efficient and also writing of KPIs using the filters also simple.
Celonis is great but needs some improvements. Documentation : For many of the marketplace solutions there is no clear documentation. Centralised scheduler needed: It is imporatnt to have a centralised scheduler to look all the data jobs and schedules at one place. So that we can manage data jobs and schedules easily. It will be great if we can highlight the tables which are getting extracted but not used in any Tranfermations or anlyisis. So that we can use the APC efficeinetly. It will be great if we can have centralised credentials store. We can store and share credentials to different access levels like user, group or pacakge.
It is giving its best for process understanding and making it better, and for task automation there are many RPA tools but for peocess automation Action flows gving its best. For managing orders and some ticksts the apps we build in Celonis making the job very easy. It is very efficent for managing the everything in one place.
Lot of offers in place from Celonis. It has its in-house Pql used to create dashboards and tight coupling with SQL. Celonis has the latest methods to create an excellent dashboard for the leadership view
Celonis has too much to offer that it is confusing sometimes as to what should be considered and what not.They dont have updated documentation and also troubleshooting support is not available if you want to use data extractor on prem
it has simplified our PR/PO process. Account receivables, Reconciliation,Oracle related process and many more. It is also having action skill who provides process automation
In -Depth explanation, real life examples and training, good customer support
Nothing as of now, its been satisfactory so far.
It greatly helped in process mining and financial analysis
Easy to use by not technical users and allows to calculate value of actions
Is a very expensive tool so the ROI is a challenge
Celonis allows us to spped up identification and implementation of actions to improve business processes
Their fantastic professionals. Always ready to help with any kind of problem.
Views Analysis is not ready yet for publishing. Lack of everything.
Process Efficiency and Prevention problems.
Total transparency of the entire process. It will show you the critical bottlenecks to work upon them and improve the over solution. Help to improve customer experience.
I know it's very expensive. Not all firms can afford it. It might need to look into the market so that medium size industries can utilise the tool and get benefitted.
It'a process mining provides shocking truth about the process and how complex it is. After the proper analysis we had a lot of items which are disturbing the straight path, we were able to reduce the deviation.
Action Engine, Transformation Centre, Views, Knowledge Model, Extraction, Transformations, Data Model
I like Celonis as it is a very nice tool for process mining
Getting process flow, playing with Activities, getting insights for value realisation from a business process
It has helped me to create a more standardized process and I have worked in UI and signavio.It has a well integrated collection of applications which are used to automate the process and which is really helpful and yes , compared to other tools, it is flexible and we are able to create our own use cases.
1.The drag and drop option has to designed in a flexible manner inorder to make it easier to access the tool. 2.Price of the user license is little bit high when compared to other tools. 3) Late response from technical support team.
It's helpful in deciding whether the process is to be considered for automation and user friendly and easy to deploy. It's really helping business to improve the processes by identifying and automation of tasks.
More easily than the competition, data analysis may be performed on the individual process phases. The interface requires less cognitive effort to utilize. The data analysis aids in isolating the issue at hand. With the use of job mining, we were able to see even the minutest of information.
The analytics component, comprised of Views and the knowledge model module, is quite difficult to utilize. It calls for complex programming and has a high propensity to disrupt the status quo. Every week, my client told me to tidy up my code.
In the past year, I've benefited greatly from utilizing Celonis. It has assisted me in developing a more consistent and open procedure. My team and I have been able to cut out some unnecessary processes thanks to it.
The interface of process mining when compared to other tools is far far better. I have worked in UI Path, QPR and signavio as well. When it comes to process mining Celonis is a market leader.
The analytics module, the Views, knowledge model module is not at all user-friendly. It requires serious coding and it is very prone to make the enviornment messy. My client always told me that my code is messy and I had to clean up the code every week.
It helped me identify $ value lost in the processes like Incident Management, Finance ticketing, SRM for all that I have done. I was able to save 5M$ of savings for an automation company
Some unique feature I have liked about Celonis is its incredible ability to create and share interactive process maps, which we use to communicate process analysis and improvement recommendations to stakeholders. The software also integrates with various systems and data sources, providing us with a comprehensive view of processes across the organization.
Not much dislike for the software, except I, have found it to be relatively expensive as compared to other process mining tools. It’s also challenging to set up and configure, especially for our organization as we have complex systems and processes
By providing detailed process insights, Celonis helps us identify areas and prioritize improvement initiatives. It also helps us ensure compliance with internal and external regulations by providing detailed view of processes and highlights and any potential issue.
I have been using Celonis for the past year, which has helped me in many ways. It has helped me to create a more standardized process and process which is transparent. It has also aided my team and the company in reducing non-value-added steps. Performing data analysis on the process steps is more accessible than any other competitors in the market. The user interface is easier to understand and use. The data analysis helps us to ring fence the problem and tackle it. The task mining helped us to track details at very small level
Celonis also has its fair share of disadvantages despite its advantages 1. Price of the product is higher than the other products in the market 2. The customization can take a long time 3. It should have a simple drag and drop option to make it easier for anyone to access the tool. 4. Whole trying to integrate with any other tool it has thrown errors.
Celonis comes with a wide range of benefits. Some of the benefits that I have witnessed are 1. Easy to use- It is very user friendly 2. Easy to Deploy- Deploying the tool is more accessible, and the user community gives a lot more support than any other product 3. Automatic Process mapping is beneficial
Celonis Process Mining helps in identifying the pain points in a process, how well the current process is performing compared to the "to-be" process, drilldown to the root cause with ease and a user friendly interface. It has a well integrated collection of applications thag can be used for automating parts of the process using Action Flow. The EMS store has pre-configured templates for transformation, extraction and analysis which can be leveraged when working on standard processes (p2p, o2c, ap,ar). Replication cockpit allows real time data to be brought in using delta loads.
Celonis Bookmarks have a major disadvantage that they are not retained if the analysis is duplicated or moved to a new space. The Sql environment for transformations uses Vertica DB, whenever an error is encountered the line number is not mentioned in the message and all errors are not displayed at once.
Celonis is helping Businesses improve their process by identifying and solving problems, automating repetitive tasks. For eg: with Celonis we can identify how long a process or sub process is taking and if it crosses a threshold then we can further analyse the elements causing it based on which the user can take action. The analyst/consultant can configure KPIs, chart and table components to display data as per requirememt, the process explorer shows the activity route the cases take, case explorer gives the raw data on the case table where we can track each individual cases event time, activity route. Good connectivity with SAP tables to perform extraction.
Ease of Use, UI, Dashboards, Process Conformance view and easy to use action flows to create a Control Centre for any Business Process. Pretty easy to deep dive into the process with just few clicks.
Celonis pricing is a bit on the more expensive side which creates barrier to entry a bit more difficult. Process Connectors for multiple system processes will be a good to have.
Celonis is providing end to end visibility into the business process which allows to unlock optimization potential of the process. It allows to create Digital Twin of the process which makes sure that the processes are optimized in real time.
