Key Findings & Highlights:

Celonis offers the Execution Management System (EMS), an all-in-one platform that includes process & task mining, and its Execution Apps for managing and automating work execution.

The company currently supports real-time extraction from Salesforce, ServiceNow, and certain SAP systems. With its recent acquisition of Lenses.io in September 2021, Celonis can stream data from Kafka directly into the EMS in real-time for real-time data sources.

Celonis developed a desktop software agent (generally available since April 2021) that passively records user desktop interactions. The sensor runs on any modern desktop/business laptop and Microsoft Windows. The max concurrent deployments of sensors within a current Celonis client organization thus far are 200-300.

A new functionality Celonis introduced in the past year is process simulation, which can simulate to-be process data using process models. As with conformance checking, process models can be auto-generated from data, created using the built-in modeler, or imported from a third-party modeler with BPMN 2.0 support.

While Celonis' analytics apps aim to help analysts discover and enhance processes faster, Execution Apps are purpose-driven and are for automating routine decisions and, when necessary, triaging work to the right people.

Action Flows is the result of Celonis’ acquisition of Integromat from October 2020. The company has fully integrated Integromat’s online automation platform into the EMS platform.

Celonis has ~1.3k employees (up from ~900 the previous year). The company operates 16 offices worldwide.

Celonis targets Fortune 5k companies.
