6.8
Celonis improves efficiency and reduces costs by up to 80%, with ROI seen in 9 to 11 months.
I have seen a return on investment with Amplitude, saving about 120 man hours per month for a specific report that needs to be created.
Technical Co-Founder at Crankshaft.ai
It has saved us a lot of time since I can see the analysis as quickly as possible in the dashboard, resulting in significant time and money saved.
Senior data engineer at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
In the first couple of years, I would not expect a return on investment because the initial setup will take more than a year if the process requires significant customization.
Senior Business Intelligence Analyst at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
In my opinion, there's a positive return on investment.
Head of Commercial Excellence at Sartorius AG
I have seen a return on investment, especially in time saved for my clients; in the incident management process, the average cycle time for handling tickets was over ninety-eight hours, but after identifying root causes, such as tickets being held due to wrong group allocation, the cycle time reduced to approximately thirty-eight hours.

Sentiment score
5.7
Celonis support is praised for responsiveness but criticized for inconsistencies and slower responses, especially for smaller contracts.
You can pursue answers whichever way you would prefer through the normal support routes or you can source it from the community that they offer on Slack.

There could be live chat support for different types of charges or solutions that would be more helpful.

Amplitude customer support is responsive.
Technical Co-Founder at Crankshaft.ai
It took more than two weeks to receive a response.

Celonis provides scalable solutions with seamless integration, accommodating enterprise roles and data needs while managing deployment and cost considerations.
Amplitude's scalability is fine; I have millions of active users, tens of millions, with high throughput, and it performs great.
Technical Co-Founder at Crankshaft.ai
Amplitude is very scalable, considering that we do not have to do any manual work ourselves.
Data Analyst & Data Protection Officer at WeSalute
Amplitude is quite scalable.
Senior data engineer at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
I recall that when we started using Celonis, we had a space of five terabytes and around one thousand users, and Celonis managed all of that easily.
Senior Business Intelligence Analyst at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
I recommend focusing on recent data or perhaps five years of historical data along with live data for better visibility and stability in the process.
Process Mining Consultant at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
At the moment, I'd rate scalability six or seven out of ten.
Senior Development Manager at Lutech

Celonis is stable.

Room For Improvement

Users desire improved report setup, visualization, query building, tagging, data retention, support, and feature discovery for enhanced analytics.
Celonis needs improvements in integration, usability, automation, visualization, pricing, and support, including better documentation and data handling.
Support could be improved. Sometimes I need to create a ticket and communicate with one of their advisors via email.
Data Science Engineer at BebopBee, Inc.
Longer form time series analysis seems nearly impossible to do on this platform.
Data Analyst & Data Protection Officer at WeSalute
Reconciling clickstream data with Databricks or other AWS systems could help analysts spend less time verifying the accuracy of both sources, which would be really helpful.
Senior Business Analyst at Arcteryx
Ultimately, I need niche expertise, combining strong SAP knowledge with Celonis competency.
Head of Commercial Excellence at Sartorius AG
It is essential for the Celonis solution to have their services and solution models integrated with GenAI.
Senior Development Manager at Lutech
The most important area for improvement is the automation part.
Data Engineer at Baker Hughes
 

Setup Cost

Amplitude's high pricing and complex billing for larger data volumes cause challenges and lengthy negotiations for users.
Celonis pricing is costly for SMEs, with variable costs based on data usage, making it a significant investment.
Pricing is often egregiously high, and the company has changed billing models on us once already.
Data Analyst & Data Protection Officer at WeSalute
We are using a free version and would upgrade to a paid version if it were cheaper.
CEO at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Amplitude's pricing is good and not overpriced; it is fair for the amount of data we are extracting and the analysis we perform.
Senior data engineer at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
I think it's relatively expensive, but it's also good.
Head of Commercial Excellence at Sartorius AG
Based on client feedback, I have heard that the pricing for Celonis is considered high.
Senior Application Developer at Fujitsu
creating a data model for one process will differ in cost if you add more data models for additional processes.

Valuable Features

Amplitude excels in segmentation, cohort analysis, and integration, enhancing data-driven decision-making and user experience optimization.
Celonis excels in process mining and automation with intuitive dashboards, seamless integration, and user-friendly UI for data-driven decisions.
Based on Amplitude charts and outcomes, our product team takes decisions, so it has improved decision-making.
Data Science Engineer at BebopBee, Inc.
Amplitude has positively impacted my organization as it allows us to make decisions based on data and iterate faster.
CEO at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Collaboration was a significant part. What improves collaboration is the self-serve functionality, which was a big deal for PMs to have access to just that data and also the base layer of how that data is structured, which connects to clicks that every report refers to.
Senior Business Analyst at Arcteryx
Celonis is also beneficial for its built-in apps that streamline tasks from legacy applications, facilitating daily operations and improving efficiency.
Senior Application Developer at Fujitsu
It provides a visualization of the process itself, giving a very good synthesis of performance and helping me find improvements.
Head of Commercial Excellence at Sartorius AG
It's the first solution that combines business competence and capabilities with technological capabilities.

Saurav Bhattacharjee - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Business Analyst at Arcteryx
Empowers teams to build visualization-rich reports and make faster decisions using historical user behavior data
I think areas for Amplitude's improvement include data retention. The maximum data I have worked with, the clickstream data on Amplitude, is two years, whereas we rely on Tableau for historical data of at least two years. I am not sure whether it was my organization paying for lower retention or not, but having historical data would take away the reliance on Tableau. Secondly, reconciling clickstream data with Databricks or other AWS systems could help analysts spend less time verifying the accuracy of both sources, which would be really helpful. Lastly, a more focused approach on error logs is necessary. I have found that, at least with Intuit, we used Splunk more for error logs than Amplitude. Although Amplitude had the capability, developers seemed to prefer Splunk, so if that could be improved, it would be good.
EA
Data Engineer at Baker Hughes
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.
