Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution offers very good end-to-end capabilities.""The ease of use is my favorite feature. We're able to build different models and projects or combine different projects to build one use case.""Live video sessions enhance the available documentation and allow you to ask questions directly.""The solution provides an end-to-end integrated tech stack that takes care of all utility/infrastructure topics for you.""Palantir Foundry is a robust platform that has really strong plugin connectors and provides features for real-time integration.""Great features available in one tool.""Encapsulates all the components without the requirement to integrate or check compatibility.""The security is also excellent. It's highly granular, so the admins have a high degree of control, and there are many levels of security. That worked well. You won't have an EDC unless you put everything onto the platform because it is its own isolated thing."

"The product is easy to use and has many connectivity options.""They are very good at building out new aspects according to customer requirements.""The solutions ability to connect "snaps" or components to the graphic user interface is very intuitive, prevents errors, and makes implementations easy.""It is a scalable solution.""SnapLogice is a low-code development tool.""By using snaps instead of functions in code, you can see the building blocks of the integration visually. This helps a lot.""The solution could improve its API management.""You can use other languages, such as Python, and easily connect to other systems."

Cons
"The frontend capabilities of Palantir Foundry could be improved.""If you want to create new models on specific data sets, computing that is quite costly.""Compared to other hyperscalers, Palantir Foundry is complex and not so user-intuitive.""Some error messages can be very cryptic.""It would be helpful to build applications based on Azure functions or web apps in Palantir Foundry.""The data lineage was challenging. It's hard to track data from the sources as it moves through stages. Informatica EDC can easily capture and report it because it talks to the metadata. This is generated across those various staging points.""Difficult to receive data from external sources.""It requires a lot of manual work and is very time-consuming to get to a functional point."

More Palantir Foundry Cons →

"The dashboards regarding scheduled tasks need further improvement.""There is room for improvement with APM management and how task execution looks.""What could be improved in SnapLogic is that it was not capable in terms of processing a large number of datasets, but at that point, SnapLogic was evolving. It didn't give a lot of Snaps. I heard recently there are a lot of Snaps getting added and the solution was being enhanced, particularly to connect different data sources. When I was working with SnapLogic six months to one year back, I faced the issue of it not being capable of handling a huge volume of datasets or didn't have much of Snaps, and that was the drawback. If there is any large number of data sets, that's based on or depends on your configuration. If it is a huge volume of data, other traditional ETL tools such as Informatica and Talend can process millions and billions of records, while in SnapLogic, the Snaplex fails or it returns an error in terms of processing that huge volume of data. Informatica, Talend, or any other ETL tool can run for hours in terms of jobs, while SnapLogic jobs fail when the threshold is reached. SnapLogic isn't able to withstand processing, but I don't know if that's still an issue at present, because the solution is getting enhanced and it's been more than six months to one year since I last worked with SnapLogic. There are now a lot of Snaps getting added to the solution, and if it can overcome the limitations I mentioned, SnapLogic could be the go-to tool because currently, it's not being used as much in organizations. It's being used comparatively less compared to other retail tools.""We'd like zero downtime in the future.""They should expand in terms of features for SaaS-based market requirements in different sectors.""The support is the most important improvement they could make.""I am looking for more scheduling options. When it comes to scheduling, there are different tools in the market.""SnapLogic doesn't provide any on-premises software, so users have only cloud-based software to use."
