Find out what your peers are saying about Informatica, Alation, SAP and others in Metadata Management."The data catalog feature is pretty good."
"When you combine it with data lineage, every time you need to make a change, it allows you to do impact analysis on any changes and then connect to the end-users or data stewards so that they can be aware that a change is coming. That's one of the main benefits we use it for."
"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."
"Encapsulates all the components without the requirement to integrate or check compatibility."
"The data lineage is great."
"The virtualization tool is useful."
"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."
"Great features available in one tool."
"The solution offers very good end-to-end capabilities."
"There are always ways to improve things. For example, we can use AI to be able to find out something. When we are typing something, if we don't know the exact term, Artificial Intelligence would be useful to find terms that are phonetically or syntactically similar. Instead of having to type in the exact name, they can provide those in the list. So, they can provide AI support for the search because when you have thousands and thousands of terms, it is hard to remember all the names."
"There is room for improvement with respect to the connector and how to connect to the structured and unstructured database."
"If you want to create new models on specific data sets, computing that is quite costly."
"The frontend capabilities of Palantir Foundry could be improved."
"It requires a lot of manual work and is very time-consuming to get to a functional point."
"Compared to other hyperscalers, Palantir Foundry is complex and not so user-intuitive."
"Some error messages can be very cryptic."
"There is not a wide user base for the solution's online documentation so it is sometimes difficult to find answers."
"Cost of this solution is quite high."
"Difficult to receive data from external sources."
