Feature release types
To meet your evolving needs and help you stay competitive, the Celonis Platform is continuously updated with new features, enhanced capabilities, and improved user experience workflows.
Platform updates follow a structured release framework with three stages, each serving a distinct purpose:
Private Preview → Product Validation: Available to select customers who opt into our usage agreements. This phase focuses on early product validation and assessing product-market fit. Features may change or be discontinued before a wider release.
Public Preview → Offering Validation: Open to all eligible customers. The product is GA-quality but undergoes final validation to ensure it meets customer needs. No contractual SLAs are provided at this stage.
General Availability( GA) → Full Market Readiness: Fully released to all eligible customers, with a finalized product, full support, and contractual SLAs in place. Enhancements may continue post-launch.
Each release type defines feature availability, support levels, and readiness for broader adoption. The below table shows a comparison across the three release types:
Release type | Purpose | Availability | Quality | Trust & Compliance | Master Service Agreement (MSA) Coverage |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Private Preview → Product Validation | Early feedback for product-market fit. | Selected customers only. | Subject to major changes or cancellations. | Secure and compliant but not optimized for scale. | No |
Public Preview → Offering Validation | Final validation before GA. | All eligible customers. | Fully secure, tested, and GA-quality. | Fully secure, tested, and compliant. | No |
General Availability( GA) → Full Market Readiness | Fully launched and market-ready. | All eligible customers. | Fully secure, tested, and GA-quality. | Fully secure, tested, and compliant. | Yes |
