Manilal Kasera - PeerSpot reviewer
Transparent with good reliability and good data visibility
The initial setup had a medium level of difficulty. If we go through the documentation, we can learn about what to do. In Palantir, they had a section called Academy, and that Academy was quite useful. If you go through that as a new user, it makes the process easier as you learn what to do. Initially, we didn't have many sources that would help us learn things, so we struggled a bit. In contrast, with Azure and Amazon Cloud, you have many sources from where you would be easily able to learn. You could just Google what you needed with them, as there's so much available documentation online. What was easy was the fact that everything was in one place. With AWS Cloud, there are many applications to support. You can use Glue or Athena, and you have all these other applications. However, with Palantir, everything is easy due to the fact that it is centralized. It's drag and drop and everything is very transparent.

A seamless all-in-one solution
This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything. With other solutions, you'll need a separate platform for data ingestion, manipulation, etc. Then you'll need another tool for reporting. Palantir Gotham literally does it all. It generates a report regardless of the format. It can seamlessly generate it after the data has been collected.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Live video sessions enhance the available documentation and allow you to ask questions directly."
"Palantir Foundry is a robust platform that has really strong plugin connectors and provides features for real-time integration."
"The virtualization tool is useful."
"Great features available in one tool."
"The data lineage is great."
"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."
"It is easy to map out a workflow and run trigger-based scripts without having to deploy to another server."
"Encapsulates all the components without the requirement to integrate or check compatibility."
"This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything."
 

Cons

"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."
"If you want to create new models on specific data sets, computing that is quite costly."
"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."
"Difficult to receive data from external sources."
"There is not a wide user base for the solution's online documentation so it is sometimes difficult to find answers."
"Some error messages can be very cryptic."
"The solution could use more online documentation for new users."
"I think there should be less coding involved. Currently, using it involves a tremendous amount of coding."
