PALANTIR DATA ENGINEER at a healthcare company with 10,001+ employees
Unified healthcare pipelines have improved data trust and accelerated operational decisions
One challenge regarding how Palantir Foundry can be improved is the learning curve. Foundry has a very broad ecosystem with Ontology, Pipeline Builder, Code Repositories, and AI integrations. For new engineers or business users onboarding, it can take time, especially if they are coming from more traditional data platforms. Better documentation, simplified onboarding paths, and more beginner-friendly examples would help accelerate adoption. Another area is debugging complexity. While lineage and monitoring are strong features, troubleshooting deeply interconnected pipelines can still become difficult in a large enterprise environment. Sometimes error logs and pipeline failure messages could be more descriptive or developer-friendly, especially for distributed PySpark jobs. Another pain point is customization limitations in certain UI-driven components. While low-code tools are great for rapid development, highly customized workflows sometimes still require engineering workarounds or deeper technical implementation. The platform is extremely capable, but improvements around usability, debugging experience, DevOps flexibility, and ecosystem openness would make it even more effective for enterprise engineering teams.

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

"I rate Palantir Foundry a ten out of ten."
"Palantir Foundry is a robust platform that has really strong plugin connectors and provides features for real-time integration."
"Encapsulates all the components without the requirement to integrate or check compatibility."
"Palantir Foundry has improved with the generation of AI, and I think the governance and security are both good things to have in Palantir Foundry."
"Palantir Foundry has positively impacted my organization, especially Airbus, as we are dependent on Palantir Foundry for processing the data."
"Palantir Foundry is one of the most advanced tools right now, in my opinion, and it would take over the world very soon."
"Palantir Foundry has positively impacted my organization mainly by consolidating our data management, so we do not need multiple accounts for different applications and can keep all our data within Palantir Foundry while accessing all applications from there without moving data between locations."
"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."
"This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything."
 

Cons

"The widgets are pretty limited."
"There are some limitations when dealing with a large-scale project."
"However, a disadvantage is the challenge of connecting data to and from Palantir, which requires coordination with data engineers."
"There are still a lot of changes required in Palantir Foundry to make it more usable or easy to use."
"Sometimes it takes time to refresh the UI, especially since it is cloud-based."
"However, I observe a potential drawback concerning market trends; as software becomes more accessible with individuals developing applications independently, there is a risk posed to Palantir Foundry, which combines multiple core functionalities."
"If it was my choice, I wouldn't sign the contract with Palantir in the first place. I would probably stick to standard Databricks."
"It is a very complicated platform, and you need to understand a lot about how to use it and the underlying thinking behind Foundry."
"I think there should be less coding involved. Currently, using it involves a tremendous amount of coding."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's expensive."
"Palantir Foundry has different pricing models that can be negotiated."
"The solution’s pricing is high."
"Palantir Foundry is an expensive solution."
