Process.Science vs ProDiscovery

Process.Science provides AI-enhanced process mining that turns operational data into analysis and improvement opportunities, with integrations for business intelligence tools including Microsoft Power BI, Qlik Sense, and Tableau. Its Power BI solution displays ERP events in interactive process charts, tracks KPIs and PPIs, compares activity with target processes, and supports process-change simulations. Users can explore process variants from an overview down to individual cases and check BPMN conformance. Dashboards can trigger Power Automate flows when critical thresholds are crossed.

Templates cover Purchase-to-Pay, Order-to-Cash, and ITSM, and customers’ BI developers can extend them. Source connections include OData, REST, and direct SQL; named data sources include SAP, Dynamics, Snowflake, Exasol, Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, and Amazon Redshift. Deployment options include on-premises and major cloud services. The company says its on-premises Power BI option keeps data within the customer’s company. The Power BI page offers a free visual and test drive through Microsoft AppSource, while paid AppSource and Enterprise versions have no listed prices. A 30-day proof of concept includes five concurrent-user licenses and 16 hours of expert support and workshops.

ProDiscovery analyzes process records, customer behavior, and other digital traces to map and simulate business processes. It accepts long-form logs with Case, Activity, and Timestamp columns, supplied in CSV or TXT files or imported from databases. The product analyzes collected data rather than collecting event logs itself. Its process analysis includes BPMN models, more than 30 chart types, process comparisons, and a customizable interface. Funnel analysis tracks conversion, drop-off points, and time by customer-journey stage; Variant Flow Analysis uses Sankey charts to show flow direction, size, and sequence relationships. Predictive monitoring applies AI and machine-learning models to process and real-time data to estimate flows, remaining time, delays, and anomalies. PiDi can summarize analysis, explain chart insights in natural language, and suggest visualizations or database queries through chat. ProDiscovery is web-based, supports Windows and macOS through compatible browsers, and is also offered on-premise. Cloud and on-premise pricing are available by inquiry; trial applications are manually reviewed and may take time.
