Leading the implementation of Celonis process mining to improve our business efficiencies
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to visualize business processes and identify opportunities for efficiencies
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be challenging to change company culture and practice value realization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're currently implementing and reviewing our procure to pay, accounts payable, order to cash, and plan to manufacture processes. At this time, an immediate benefit is that our internal audit team has saved audit time by building dashboards in Celonis for procure to pay and accounts payable.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Identify key resources who can dedicate time and energy to validate the data and to help with implementing into the company culture.
Celonis quickly revealed the complexity of our Order to Cash and AR processes.
What do you like best about the product?
Once enabled, the Celonis process mapping technology allows for visualizing detailed process flows, identification of key bottlenecks, and KPI creation. It would have taken a team of experts multiple weeks to outline the top value streams for a process such as Order to Cash, and we still would not have had the residence time in each step. Celonis does it all.
What do you dislike about the product?
Any customization of your ERP system will require additional tables to be pulled and integrated into the process being mapped; a true mapping of a process will take considerably more time for those with heavy ERP customization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We didn't know what we didn't know about our O2C and AR processes, so the first benefit was understanding the complexity of these initial processes. We quickly identified and have realized value in AR on unearned early payment discounts and supplier financing opportunities. Within O2C, we are pursuing opportunities identified around order blocks and holds to reduce the overall O2C cycle.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Highly recommend if you wish to learn how complex "simple" processes such as O2C, AR, P2P, AP, and more are within your company.
Depending on the component they are more (Process Analytics) or less (Business Views) user-friendly.
What do you like best about the product?
Quick insights for relevant KPIs in Celonis.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like the fact that these reports/dashboards cannot be exported automatically on regular basis as a pdf-file to some email-address recipient.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mostly working with FI-area, so I am identifying vendors "with problems" and try to find a reason for non-touchless posting, for instance.
The future of process re-engineering based of transformation big data into information
What do you like best about the product?
A ground breaking technology that allows full visibility of our processes, identifying weak spots and bottleneck and making is easy and intuitive to act. The right leverage to transform data to information and to go from process sample analysis to full data analysis.
What do you dislike about the product?
Complex adaptation of pre-developed extractors with our company's infrastructure requirements.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Improve Purchase to Pay process, remote process bottlenecks, increase productivity, reduce costs, increase transparency
Great journey to Process Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, and speed of analysis, product features
What do you dislike about the product?
New pricing model, and less value for money for customers
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Process Visibility, and process improvement
IS Director, Business Process Support Services
What do you like best about the product?
The level of data and insight available for business process execution.
What do you dislike about the product?
The action engine is not available for on-premise users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have found several use cases for Celonis. We are leveraging the insight engine to identify process inefficiencies or non-compliance. provide efficiencies in the internal audit process and process metrics.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
RFP implementation services. Found a broad spectrum of costs between consulting firms.
Essential tool to improve OTC processes and automate them
What do you like best about the product?
Live data from the ERP in a format/analysis you can devise according to needs
What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe the datamodel could be more flexible and new connections possible according to needs of a dashboard
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are only at the start of the process, specifically for my project I now have ways to track DSO success and also anticipate on billing error rate for customers who will be onboarded into e-invoicing automation.
Celonis is more than just process analysis
What do you like best about the product?
We use Celonis not only as a process analysis tool, but also as a monitoring tool and workflow system. With the help of Celonis, you can keep an eye on your processes at all times. You can analyze weak points and continuously improve your process performance. Different decision-making levels have a transparent overview of how actual processes run internally. Optimizations can be implemented directly with Celonis.
What do you dislike about the product?
Celonis requires a clear focus internally on data analytics, making data-driven decisions and implementing process optimizations. Therefore, you need clear and unambiguous management support to introduce and implement process improvements in your organization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have optimized the communication process in order processing through the use of Celonis and thus massively improved throughput times and quality in order processing. Open order items are routed to the responsible processing point in the company in a targeted manner as required without any loss of time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Good preparation before Celonis is implemented. Clarification of the responsibilities and special attention to the existence or creation of resources for data analysis and data science.
Ability to view process, alongside metrics/KPI's & underlying data, is true value realization
What do you like best about the product?
As title suggest, Celonis is powerful in identification of root cause of issue, thereby exposing process gaps and showing the opportunities for improvement. While traditional BI tools are in retrospect, capability to refresh with near real time data & visualize the bottleneck is useful. Also, product is now trying to center itself on action (rather than just reflecting the issue)
What do you dislike about the product?
In enterprise setup, ease with which it can interact with other applications or authentications (Kerberos support) can be improved, so that it can be adopted in scale in larger organizations
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Process Transparency, Root Cause Identification , Metric generation. While we are still early in the journey, we are using this as catalyst for data driven decision making system.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
While you might be skeptical of the benefits, as long as you have data foot print in some shape/ form, that can be transformed & used, it is worth trying this journey. We had initial doubts on quality of data. However, as long as you have activities & time stamps in good form, the results would be beneficial
Uncovering great insights
What do you like best about the product?
Celonis ability to visualize the entire process flow and show hidden inefficiencies underlying within various data sets is absolutely amazing. Its a next gen tool to not only uncover potential friction points but also helps in generating insights to drive improvements.
What do you dislike about the product?
Improvements can be made to the dashboards.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Celonis is enabling us to drive multiple transformation initiatives in different streams and across industries. Attaining full transparency around underlying processes have resulted in optimizing efficiency and improved customer experience.
