Celonis has filed a lawsuit against SAP, asserting that the software giant is obstructing access to customer data essential for process mining, thereby stifling competition. This lawsuit, notable for being in California's Northern District—favorable to antitrust claimants—focuses on how SAP allegedly uses its dominant market position in ERP to disadvantage third-party providers like Celonis following its acquisition of Signavio. Celonis claims SAP is creating deliberate obstacles through fees, technical limitations, and policy updates that ultimately detract from choices available to customers, who face high switching costs.
Celonis's lawsuit against SAP claims that the latter employs tactics to stifle competition in the process mining market by limiting data access.
The Northern District of California, known for its favorable legal environment for antitrust suits, is handling the case between Celonis and SAP.
Celonis argues that SAP, after acquiring Signavio, has imposed new fees and technical restrictions to bolster its dominant position in the ERP market.
According to Celonis, the high cost of switching ERP providers leaves customers vulnerable to SAP's restrictive practices.
