Featured Reviews

Rama Subba Reddy Thavva - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Sushrit Moundekar - PeerSpot reviewer
Has supported building flexible data pipelines and streamlined ETL orchestration
There should be a dedicated support team for Talend Open Studio. We do have a support team, but at times it is critical for us to fix certain things within one or two hours. Usually, the support team takes some 12 hours, which is the standard edition of support. If we could have round-the-clock support, we would be able to resolve many issues which we encounter during the development part. The initial setup for Talend Open Studio is a little complex. We need to have a dedicated person who has an understanding of Talend Open Studio as a tool. It takes some level of expertise, so it is not an easy process, but once we have a dedicated associate who is knowledgeable in that particular field, it becomes comparatively easier.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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 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 virtualization tool is useful."
"I rate Palantir Foundry a ten out of ten."
"The solution offers very good end-to-end capabilities."
"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."
"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."
"Talend Open Studio is easy to create jobs. We use the basic functionality and it is very good."
"The initial setup was quite straightforward. The deployment took between two and three days."
"It has got so many connectors. It is intuitive and easy to use."
"Talend can connect to multiple data sources, including relational data sources, ERP, CRM, and others."
"The drag-and-drop feature in the interface is very good."
"We're sold on the customization part of the solution."
"It is easy to use and covers most of the functions needed. We can use the code without any extra effort. The open source is very good. They have the same commercials with additional connectors. The graphical design environment is also very easy."
"You can use Talend SDK to develop your own components and add them to the product."
 

Cons

"If you want to create new models on specific data sets, computing that is quite costly."
"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."
"The major hindrance with Palantir Foundry is that being a very closed product, the cost optimization and costing are not exposed to the end users."
"It would be helpful to build applications based on Azure functions or web apps in Palantir Foundry."
"Some error messages can be very cryptic."
"The solution’s data security could be improved."
"The solution could use more online documentation for new users."
"The product could be more intuitive."
"It is complicated to understand the configuration process for email components."
"Talend Open Studio is in Java language, and right now, you can only use the debug functionality in Java. I see that people who know programming languages other than Java currently face difficulties."
"Having additional training materials, such as a video tutorial, would be an improvement."
"The only other thing is that you have to integrate into an API gateway. We're in Azure, so we use Microsoft Azure Gateway. It doesn't come with its own gateway, which is another sort of big plus side that we saw in Boomi. Talend isn't quite there yet with the API gateway."
"The high price of the solution is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"There is a need for mastery in some areas."
"Multiple products are there within the product suite. That can be actually trimmed down."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's expensive."
"The solution’s pricing is high."
"Palantir Foundry has different pricing models that can be negotiated."
"Palantir Foundry is an expensive solution."
"I am using the open-source version of the solution, so there are no extra costs for any feature."
"For Talend Open Studio, there is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing cost. Talend Open Studio is a bit expensive, in my opinion."
"Talend is free and you can download it."
"The cost, particularly in Africa, is quite high."
"It is an open-source product."
"Talend Open Studio is priced too high."
"Right now, because we're using the open-source version, there's no cost."
"We are using the free version of the tool, because the enterprise version is a little expensive."
