3Com Baseline Switches (Discontinued) vs. Celonis

As our company is growing we need to be able to upgrade our equipment. It is great for smaller companies.

Incentivized

Celonis is well suited especially for comparably big use cases due to hefty license costs. For thorough analyses, all departments should take part in the approach since there are a lot of hidden influences and effects from departments to one another. Use cases like conformance / revision are possible but will not be a big lever since this only involves checking single instances.

Incentivized

• Our network is slow.
• Feels like things are not working properly at times.
• Old equipment.

Incentivized

• User interface is complex and so it can take some time for users who are new to process mining to become familiar with the tool
• Celonis is not able to integrate with all of Uniper's enterprise application due to lack of connectors
• No real-time collaboration with other users e.g. lack of shared annotations

We have been able to leverage Celonis [greatly] because of the commitment and support we receive from our data scientist. I strongly believe that we would not be able to accomplish this without her assistance. Moreover, when we escalate matters, the product development is engaged and commits resources to make sure our initiatives/business cases are supported.

It is a great tool but also requires a lot of work to get it into a useable fashion. Part of this is on our end as we don't have the dedicated analyst function yet to really become self-sufficient with Celonis. It also uncovers a lot of data issues or at the very least, multiple rounds of development and data validation are required before getting to a position where the business users feel comfortable with the data being reflected. This is fairly normal with any data-related development effort and perhaps not unique to Celonis.

We submit tickets to Celonis through product support. No assistance is generally provided, have to wait and the ticket is then escalated to product support in Germany. Many times we submit the ticket and the support desk asks us the same questions back where they should already have this information.

Celonis has a lot of tools to support the implementation.

I used Cisco and Cisco is a great product but more on the expensive side. This is a great product for smaller companies.

The major reason to choose Celonis is that it has enhanced decision-making in filtering the candidates. The frontend designer has nice graphics and has well-designed self-service. I particularly enjoy the visual editor, which allows you to create complicated PQL without having to write any code, as well as the numerous filtering choices, including process mining options.

Incentivized

• Great price.
• Great product for small company.
• It was great before we expanded.

• Celonis thus far (and I do not anticipate anything changing) has not had a negative impact on our business. It has challenged us to think differently about what is possible and jumpstarted process improvement aimed at saving both money and time while improving the morale of our end users. Celonis has also provided us with enough data to be to develop targeted business objectives on system usage and timeliness which without them was nearly impossible to measure let alone act upon
• Better order processing (quicker, more system driven, and saves money)
• Reduction in throughput time (our order fulfillment time has improved and our order processing time has decreased)
• Finds and acts on automation opportunities
• Can find large dollar value opportunities for process improvement
• Can find data driven recommendations for executive interactions
