Celonis Studio enhancements make building apps, dashboards and actions easier than ever
Celonis is making it easier for businesses to drive process improvements at scale and speed with updates to its low-code development environment, Celonis Studio. These improvements include a new Studio UI, simplified dashboard creation, more intuitive layout and configuration of components, easier PQL development and more.
"Today we’re launching dramatic improvements which will accelerate the development of beautiful dashboards and apps for analysts in Celonis Studio," said Alex Lowe, Senior Vice President of Product Management at Celonis. "The enhanced Studio experience is endlessly flexible, friendly to use, accessible to beginners and packed with sophistication for experts. We have empowered analysts to develop high impact interfaces that streamline the daily workflows of business users."
The Studio updates were originally announced and released in limited availability (LA) during Celosphere 2023, along with the Process Intelligence Graph, Process Copilot, Transformation Hub and a new Material Emissions App. As of May 13 2024, the Studio updates are generally available (GA) to Celonis partners and customers.
Celonis Studio: An enhanced Studio experience
Building analyses and apps is critical for value identification and realization with Celonis. Business users, such as an order management team member, access Celonis process insights through capabilities like Process Explorer and Process Adherence Manager (formerly Process Sphere). Studio is where analysts create the analyses, dashboards and automations that deliver those insights through "apps."
The enhanced Studio experience makes building apps and analyses easier with minimal training, offering a guided experience that reduces time-to-build. It also reduces the amount of process mining expertise and Celonis product knowledge required to build effectively.
The new drag-and-drop and drop Studio interface makes building apps and analysis faster and easier than ever before.
