We performed a comparison between New Relic and Palantir Foundry based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two IT Operations Analytics solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."There are many valuable features in New Relic APM. We developed some software applications and we are able to monitor the errors very easily. Their log security retention is very good."
"We were able to integrate with the messaging tool, Slack, which meant that we got notifications whenever something was not quite right."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to receive in-depth information about applications. It can detect a lot of important information."
"The best feature of New Relic is its simple look and feel, making it easier to use than other tools."
"The simplicity of the dashboard is very good."
"The synthetic alert is the most valuable feature in New Relic APM. I also like the time travel feature and find traceability useful in the solution. New Relic APM also has good response times."
"The service maps that it creates, the health maps that it creates, the insights that it provides, etc., are all quite useful."
"They instrument up from the bottom to the top – every piece of code - they have a very perfect read of what’s being done, and how long it’s taking."
"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."
"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."
"Live video sessions enhance the available documentation and allow you to ask questions directly."
"It's scalable."
"The data lineage is great."
"The interface is really user-friendly."
"Encapsulates all the components without the requirement to integrate or check compatibility."
"Great features available in one tool."
"One thing I'd like to see in any APM, especially New Relic, is the ability to use distributed transactions. When one microservice calls another, it calls another database and microservice. The entire data visualization layer will not be able to correlate from one microservice from end to end and return on that path. Distributed transactions would be a great addition that would make life simpler. Unfortunately, no APM has that end-to-end capability."
"The solution does not provide input on how the page performs in a big group. It just says that the page performance is bad, but it does not say what can be done to improve it. If they could provide some insight or guidance on how to make improvements, that would be a big help."
"I would like a feature where I can turn off alerting at a policy level. Thus, when a policy is inactive, I can shut down all of my alerts within the policy."
"Documentation is one of the biggest things that I have a problem with since its documentation is not clear sometimes."
"I would like to have storage monitoring. E.g., being able to monitor SANS, specifically protocols, like NFS and CIFS metrics."
"It gives you amazing statistics, but doesn’t give you enough information about what to do with the statistics."
"The solution should include more detailed reports for SQL database requests."
"The solution needs to have staging."
"Compared to other hyperscalers, Palantir Foundry is complex and not so user-intuitive."
"The workflow could be improved."
"The solution could use more online documentation for new users."
"It requires a lot of manual work and is very time-consuming to get to a functional point."
"Difficult to receive data from external sources."
"Cost of this solution is quite high."
"The frontend capabilities of Palantir Foundry could be improved."
"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."
