Tolulope A. Adeniji - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides application integration and reduces time and effort during upgrades
One of the most valuable aspects was its impact on reducing time and effort during upgrades. Previously, SAP upgrades required significant coordination with multiple teams. Now, thanks to our streamlined integration approach, the SAP team interacts primarily with the integration team. When changes are needed, we simply create a new version. This allows application teams to migrate gradually from the old version to the new one, without extensive involvement from the SAP team. Moreover, our approach has improved reliability by eliminating duplicated efforts. Previously, different teams would often duplicate data sets due to inefficiencies in data naming conventions. We centralized data integration, ensuring that all applications use the same data set.

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

"This is a good platform for designing, flowing out APIs, and then doing API-based integrations."
"The product’s ability to seamlessly translate protocols is great."
"When we talk about the APIs, there are multiple policies one can apply on APIs, like rate limiting policies, OWASP policies, and OWASP security policies, that can be easily configured in Mule Anypoint Platform."
"The product is very user-friendly."
"The most beneficial features for handling data integration with Mule Anypoint Platform include its ability to integrate seamlessly with other popular platforms like IBM, Dell Boomi, and Microsoft Azure. MuleSoft stands out due to its unique one-point solution for various integration problems, including application and network integration, and its iPaaS services. The Design Center allows for designing APIs that can be made into reusable assets. Additionally, MuleSoft's capability to handle various technologies, such as Python and Java Spring Boot APIs, and monitor them using the Flex Gateway is valuable. Regarding API management, MuleSoft offers a gateway facility, including Flex Gateway, which supports API management with robust governance capabilities. Policies like rate limiting, blocklisting, allowlisting, and client ID enforcement can all be managed through the API Manager, providing comprehensive control over API operations."
"The solution is scalable, and its performance is quite good."
"The most valuable feature is the full lifecycle management, including Anypoint Designer and Exchange, as well as Discofolio API."
"The API toolkit is the solution's most valuable aspect at this time, for our organization."
"The predictive analytics capability within Palantir Foundry impacts financial forecasting strategies through its AIP functionality, which includes numerous pre-built models, LLMs, and data science application libraries."
"The data lineage is great."
"It is easy to map out a workflow and run trigger-based scripts without having to deploy to another server."
"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 virtualization tool is useful."
"Great features available in one tool."
"It's scalable."
"The AI engine that comes with Palantir Foundry is quite interesting."
 

Cons

"Anypoint MQ could improve the user interface."
"This becomes an expensive solution over time."
"The platform's data integration tools need improvement on the processing side."
"The solution is very expensive. They need to work on the pricing."
"The tool requires programming language."
"The inclusion of GenAI in the tool can be good since it is an area that is currently unavailable in the solution."
"In order to set up a storefront, we currently rely on a third-party solution. It would greatly enhance our operations if this feature was integrated into their existing solution."
"It's extremely expensive to change things in Anypoint MQ. There's also this issue of slow output of messages, and that needs to be improved."
"Cost of this solution is quite high."
"The solution's visualization and analysis could be improved."
"The startup pricing is high, causing concern despite being cost-effective in terms of total cost of ownership."
"Difficult to receive data from external sources."
"Some error messages can be very cryptic."
"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."
"The solution’s data security could be improved."
"It would be helpful to build applications based on Azure functions or web apps in Palantir Foundry."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Mule Anypoint Platform pricing is slightly higher compared to Dell Boomi."

"I rate the product price a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."

"The solution has a high price."
"The licensing is core-based. My customers tell me that it's very expensive compared to the cost of other integration suites."

"It's expensive."
