Why Teams Switch from Celonis

Celonis excels at process mining for large enterprises, but it's overkill and unaffordable for most organizations.

Enterprise Pricing Only

Celonis targets Fortune 500 companies with contracts starting at $100,000+/year.

Requires IT Infrastructure

Setup requires dedicated IT teams, ERP integrations, and months of configuration.

Process Mining ≠ AI Transformation

Celonis analyzes existing processes but doesn't guide you through AI-powered redesign.

Steep Learning Curve

Complex interface requires specialist training: business analysts can't self-serve.
