Executive SummaryUpdated on Jan 1, 2025

Devo and Palantir Foundry are competitors in the data analytics and integration software market. While both offer robust solutions, Devo holds an edge with its cloud-first architecture and real-time analytics specifically tailored for security operations.

Features: Devo offers advanced Activeboards, real-time analytics, and a seamless multi-tenant environment, providing advantages in security operations. Its cloud-first architecture ensures scalability and efficiency, while extended log retention enhances data management. Palantir Foundry excels in data integration and transformation with strong visualization capabilities and an end-to-end tech stack encompassing robust plugin connectors and comprehensive data lineage.

Room for Improvement: Devo can improve AI capabilities, customize features better, and address pricing unpredictability. Enhancements are also needed in browser-based searches and support for third-party integrations. Meanwhile, Palantir Foundry could benefit from simplifying its setup process and enhancing front-end capabilities. Better online documentation and cost efficiency would be advantageous as well.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Devo provides flexibility with various deployment options, including hybrid cloud and on-premises, while striving for responsive customer service.

Palantir Foundry focuses on public cloud deployments and prioritizes customer support, though it can improve its escalation process.

Pricing and ROI: Devo's pricing model based on data ingestion, though potentially leading to higher costs, offers budgeting predictability, and users appreciate its infrastructure cost savings. Palantir Foundry's pricing is perceived as high, but the value from its integration capabilities can justify the expense. Both aim to optimize ROI by reducing mean time to remediation, with Devo's model offering notable flexibility and cost benefits for different organization sizes.

Michael Wenn

CEO / Co-Founder at Aiops ltd

Has cloud-first architecture with SIEM technology to run security operations

When it comes to scale, they're architected quite well. They handle some of the biggest customers globally, with significant throughput on their platform, managing thousands of customers. One of the most impressive aspects of Devo is its customer community. A large majority, over 80 percent of their customers, actively participate on a Devo-specific community page. They're contributing to product development and support, events, and user group information, helping each other out. This high level of engagement is rare and demonstrates both the loyalty of their customer base and the quality of their product. They offer a range of small, medium, and large options to cater to everyone. I sold Devo products while working with them, focusing on enterprise solutions. However, as a small reseller, my customers were typically smaller businesses. I rate the solution's scalability a nine out of ten.

Solution Architect at Mercedes-Benz AG

A low-code/no-code platform with a user-friendly UI

We couldn't implement or use some of the latest functionalities, like Spark. Palantir Foundry is scalable, but it is costly compared to other cloud providers. The solution is more suitable for small and medium businesses. It might be difficult for large enterprises. I rate the solution’s scalability a seven out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The querying and the log-retention capabilities are pretty powerful. Those provide some of the biggest value-add for us."

"The strength of Devo is not only in that it is pretty intuitive, but it gives you the flexibility and creativity to merge feeds. The prime examples would be using the synthesis or union tables that give you phenomenal capabilities... The ability to use a synthesis or union table to combine all those feeds and make heads or tails of what's going on, and link it to go down a thread, is functionality that I hadn't seen before."

"It's very, very versatile."

"The real-time analytics of security-related data are super. There are a lot of data feeds going into it and it's very quick at pulling up and correlating the data and showing you what's going on in your infrastructure. It's fast. The way that their architecture and technology works, they've really focused on the speed of query results and making sure that we can do what we need to do quickly. Devo is pulling back information in a fast fashion, based on real-time events."

"Being able to build and modify dashboards on the fly with Activeboards streamlines my analyst time because my analysts aren't doing it across spreadsheets or five different tools to try to build a timeline out themselves. They can just ingest it all, build a timeline out across all the logging, and all the different information sources in one dashboard. So, it's a huge time saver. It also has the accuracy of being able to look at all those data sources in one view. The log analysis, which would take 40 hours, we can probably get through it in about five to eight hours using Devo."

"One of the biggest features of the UI is that you see the actual code of what you're doing in the graphical user interface, in a little window on the side. Whatever you're doing, you see the code, what's happening. And you can really quickly switch between using the GUI and using the code. That's really useful."

"Devo helps us to unlock the full power of our data because they have more than 450 parsers, which means that we can ingest pretty much any type of log data."

"The most valuable feature is definitely the ability that Devo has to ingest data. From the previous SIEM that I came from and helped my company administer, it really was the type of system where data was parsed on ingest. This meant that if you didn't build the parser efficiently or correctly, sometimes that would bring the system to its knees. You'd have a backlog of processing the logs as it was ingesting them."

More Devo pros

"Live video sessions enhance the available documentation and allow you to ask questions directly."

"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."

"Great features available in one tool."

"The virtualization tool is useful."

"It's scalable."

"The interface is really user-friendly."

"The solution offers very good end-to-end capabilities."

"Encapsulates all the components without the requirement to integrate or check compatibility."

More Palantir Foundry pros

Cons

"The overall performance of extraction could be a lot faster, but that's a common problem in this space in general. Also, the stock or default alerting and detecting options could definitely be broader and more all-encompassing. The fact that they're not is why we had to write all our own alerts."

"The Activeboards feature is not as mature regarding the look and feel. Its functionality is mature, but the look and feel is not there. For example, if you have some data sets and are trying to get some graphics, you cannot change anything. There's just one format for the graphics. You cannot change the size of the font, the font itself, etc."

"I would like to have the ability to create more complex dashboards."

"There is room for improvement in the ability to parse different log types. I would go as far as to say the product is deficient in its ability to parse multiple, different log types, including logs from major vendors that are supported by competitors. Additionally, the time that it takes to turn around a supported parser for customers and common log source types, which are generally accepted standards in the industry, is not acceptable. This has impacted customer onboarding and customer relationships for us on multiple fronts."

"There's room for improvement within the GUI. There is also some room for improvement within the native parsers they support. But I can say that about pretty much any solution in this space."

"The biggest area with room for improvement in Devo is the Security Operations module that just isn't there yet. That goes back to building out how they're going to do content and larger correlation and aggregation of data across multiple things, as well as natively ingesting CTI to create rule sets."

"Their documentation could be better. They are growing quickly and need to have someone focused on tech writing to ensure that all the different updates, how to use them, and all the new features and functionality are properly documented."

"Where Devo has room for improvement is the data ingestion and parsing. We tend to have to work with the Devo support team to bring on and ingest new sources of data."

More Devo cons

"The frontend capabilities of Palantir Foundry could be improved."

"Some error messages can be very cryptic."

"The solution could use more online documentation for new users."

"Cost of this solution is quite high."

"Difficult to receive data from external sources."

"They do not have a data center in Europe, and we have lots of personally identifiable information in our dataset that needs to be hosted by a third-party data center like Amazon or Microsoft Azure."

"It requires a lot of manual work and is very time-consuming to get to a functional point."

"The solution’s data security could be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Devo is a hosted or subscription-based solution, whereas before, we purchased QRadar, so we owned it and just had to pay a maintenance fee. We've encountered this with some other products, too, where we went over to subscription-based. Our thought process is that with subscription based, the provider hosts and maintains the tool, and it's offsite. That comes with some additional fees, but we were able to convince our upper management it was worth the price. We used to pay under 10k a year for maintenance, and now we're paying ten times that. It was a relatively tough sell to our management, but I wonder if we have a choice anymore; this is where the market is."

"It's a per gigabyte cost for ingestion of data. For every gigabyte that you ingest, it's whatever you negotiated your price for. Compared to other contracts that we've had for cloud providers, it's significantly less."

"Devo was very cost-competitive... Devo did come with that 400 days of hot data, and that was not the case with other products."

"Pricing is based on the number of gigabytes of ingestion by volume, and it's on a 30-day average. If you go over one day, that's not a big deal as long as the average is what you expected it to be."

"Be cautious of metadata inclusion for log types in pricing, as there are some "gotchas" with that."

"[Devo was] in the ballpark with at least a couple of the other front-runners that we were looking at. Devo is a good value and, given the quality of the product, I would expect to pay more."

"We have an OEM agreement with Devo. It is very similar to the standard licensing agreement because we are charged in the same way as any other customer, e.g., we use the backroom."

"It's very competitive. That was also a primary draw for us. Some of the licensing models with solutions like Splunk and Sentinel were attractive upfront, but there were so many micro-charges and services we would've had to add on to make them what we wanted. We had to include things like SOAR and extended capabilities, whereas all those capabilities are completely included with the Devo platform. I haven't seen any additional fee."
