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

"The solution is very scalable with solid performance and the capability of extending it using any custom Java in case you don't have anything out of the box. MDP is strong. It is good compared to other products regarding its capabilities in managing or orchestrating the issue load."
"The solution's deployment and proxy processes are very good."
"The product’s ability to seamlessly translate protocols is great."
"The platform's cloud integration capabilities are good."
"The integration potential is excellent."
"The community manager is the standout feature of the Mule Anypoint Platform, as it provides a platform to showcase your API to external parties. It is exceptionally user-friendly and enables external parties to easily utilize and consume the APIs."
"Overall, it is a pretty good product. It is also very scalable."
"This is the easiest and best tool available."
"The virtualization tool is useful."
"Great features available in one tool."
"It's scalable."
"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."
"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 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 interface is really user-friendly."
 

Cons

"The terms of use and how it's priced has become very difficult to manage, which is forcing us to look for alternatives already - and we haven't even been using it for that long just yet."
"When we are integrating with other applications, readily available connectors make it easy. However, when it comes to external applications, connectivity isn't as straightforward."
"The platform's data integration tools need improvement on the processing side."
"What I hear from my customers is that it's very expensive compared to the cost of other integration suites. The cost keeps increasing. MuleSoft should come up with customization factors by using a different way of getting the cost-related stuff to attract customers. That is, they should come up with some cost optimizations."
"The tool requires programming language."
"It doesn't work well when you try using it for the processing layer."
"Anypoint MQ's capabilities are mainly used for messaging purposes, but it doesn't have typical use cases that extend as far as other Message Queue software."
"The solution's licensing model is expensive and could be improved."
"The solution’s data security could be improved."
"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 workflow could be improved."
"The frontend capabilities of Palantir Foundry could be improved."
"There is not a wide user base for the solution's online documentation so it is sometimes difficult to find answers."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I can't give you a straightforward answer because sometimes it depends on the usage. If you're going to have fewer than 5 million messages, it is free of cost. If you're going to have more than 5 million messages, they're going to charge $100 per month"
"Making changes in Anypoint MQ is expensive."
"The product is still very expensive."
"The solution's pricing, as per the old approach, is expensive."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing as four or five out of ten."
"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."
"The solution’s pricing is high."
"Palantir Foundry is an expensive solution."
"It's expensive."
"Palantir Foundry has different pricing models that can be negotiated."
