Unified data workflows have empowered collaborative analytics and streamlined AI development
Regarding points for improvement for Palantir Foundry, I see that they are improving day by day. In the last one to two years, I have seen many improvements compared to the two years that I have worked on Palantir Foundry. There are many things that come up, but a few things are not intuitive enough. Now that we are in this AI phase, Palantir Foundry has created some wrappers around the models, allowing us to create using a no-code application, chatbots, and LLM functions. The problem is that interaction with outside applications can be difficult with the current setup that Palantir Foundry has. There are ways to do that, but it is not that intuitive, which is what I feel.

Efficient data integration and good automation with challenging configurability
The application has a difficult-to-use parsing capability, which requires a lot of reengineering when the use case isn't specifically met. The application also lacks capabilities within its terminal commands that are not available in their GUI. It requires a lot of configurability, which could be streamlined for an enterprise application user.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It has been the platform for end to end data processing, manipulations, and reporting, greatly improved org's data reporting effort."
"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."
"I rate Palantir Foundry a ten out of ten."
"I like the data onboarding to Palantir Foundry and ETL creation."
"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."
"Great features available in one tool."
"The AI engine that comes with Palantir Foundry is quite interesting."
"The data lineage is great."
"The ingestion engines were pretty good."
"The crawler agents they provide, as well as TetraScience exclusive parsers, allow for specific instruments that we use in our labs with proprietary formats to extract data and put it into more standard formats for various purposes."
 

Cons

"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."
"The solution’s data security could be improved."
"It requires a lot of manual work and is very time-consuming to get to a functional point."
"I rate Palantir Foundry five out of 10. I'm ambivalent."
"If you want to create new models on specific data sets, computing that is quite costly."
"Compared to other hyperscalers, Palantir Foundry is complex and not so user-intuitive."
"The startup pricing is high, causing concern despite being cost-effective in terms of total cost of ownership."
"The workflow could be improved. Although it works rather seamlessly, the workflow is too complicated sometimes."
"The application has a difficult-to-use parsing capability, which requires a lot of reengineering when the use case isn't specifically met."
"While functional during ingestion workflows, the automation toolkit required manual processes."
