Celonis vs. UiPath Process Mining

The process mining specialist vs. the RPA platform's mining module. One is built for data-team-led process intelligence at ERP scale; the other feeds an RPA pipeline. Here's how to pick, and the gap they share.

Celonis

The category's best-known process mining platform. It extracts event logs from ERP and CRM systems, reconstructs how processes actually run, and adds process intelligence, benchmarks and action flows on top.

Choose Celonis if

  • Your processes run in SAP, Oracle or another ERP at millions of events
  • You have a data team, or budget for an implementation partner
  • Conformance, variant analysis and throughput-time depth matter most
  • Process mining is its own program, not a feeder for bots

UiPath Process Mining

Process mining and task mining inside the UiPath platform. It finds candidates for automation and hands them to UiPath's RPA tooling, where developers build and run the bots.

Choose UiPath Process Mining if

  • You already run a UiPath RPA program and center of excellence
  • You want mining and bot-building under one enterprise agreement
  • Task mining on desktops is as important as event-log mining
  • RPA developers are on staff to build what it finds

The gap they share

Both tell you where the work is and then hand it to someone else. With Celonis that is a data team, a partner or another tool. With UiPath it is RPA developers building screen-level bots that need upkeep. Either way the person who actually does the work is not the one who fixes it, and the insight waits in a backlog.

End-to-end AI Process Automation.

Celonis and UiPath both find the work, then hand it to someone else to build. Caddi is the end-to-end process automation solution: it doesn't stop at discovering your processes, it also builds the automation and governs every run. It starts on a free plan.
  1. DiscoverFinds the work worth automating in the tools you already use, read only, with the evidence behind each finding.
  2. AutomateThe person who does the work builds the automation that replaces it. No IT project, no bots to babysit.
  3. GovernEvery run and every decision is logged and reviewable. No black box.

Help me automate found it? Now automate it in Microsoft Outlook and Salesforce. Caddi builds the loop and runs it.

Discover it. Automate it. Govern it.

Bring a workflow that's outgrowing Celonis or UiPath Process Mining. Caddi finds it in the tools you already use, the person who does the work builds the automation with no IT project, and every run is on the record, across 150+ tools.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between Celonis and UiPath Process Mining?

Celonis is a dedicated process mining and process intelligence platform built around event logs from ERP and CRM systems, usually run by analysts or data teams. UiPath Process Mining sits inside the UiPath automation platform and exists largely to find candidates for RPA bots, which UiPath developers then build.

Is Celonis better than UiPath for process mining?

For deep, ERP-scale process analysis (conformance, variants, throughput times across millions of events), Celonis is the more complete mining product. If mining is mainly a feeder for an existing UiPath RPA program, UiPath's module keeps everything in one platform.

Do Celonis or UiPath build the automation for you?

Not in the sense an ops team means. Celonis offers action flows that trigger steps from its platform, and larger fixes go to data teams, partners or other tools. UiPath routes findings to RPA developers who build bots in Studio. Caddi is different: the person who does the work builds the automation in Caddi Automate, and Govern logs every run.

Which is cheaper, Celonis or UiPath Process Mining?

Neither publishes list prices. Third-party reports put Celonis entry contracts around $80,000 to $95,000 per year and UiPath Process Mining around $50,000 to $200,000 per year, often bundled into enterprise agreements. Caddi's Individual plan, which includes Discover, is free.
