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.
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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features for us are flexibility, all the features related to connectivity with multiple connectors to the business, and the flexibility of on-premises and cloud deployments."
"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 tool is very capable and offers a high performance. The tool supports batch processing and ETL processing."
"Whenever we need some support in our local language, we get it easily. They also have an office in Germany and if a person is unable to contact them by phone, they can go to the office in person."
"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."
"It's easy to use and comes as a bundle package with the Anypoint Platform, removing the need for any complex setup."
"It reduces manual loads in maintaining servers as it comes with the Cloud Hub feature."
"The most valuable feature of Mule Anypoint Platform is rapid development."
"Live video sessions enhance the available documentation and allow you to ask questions directly."
"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."
"It is easy to map out a workflow and run trigger-based scripts without having to deploy to another server."
"I like the data onboarding to Palantir Foundry and ETL creation."
"Great features available in one tool."
"The solution provides an end-to-end integrated tech stack that takes care of all utility/infrastructure topics for you."
"Palantir Foundry is a robust platform that has really strong plugin connectors and provides features for real-time integration."
"It's scalable."
 

Cons

"The price could be improved."
"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."
"Mule Anypoint Platform could improve by having better integration with MDM. There are challenges when doing the interaction at this time."
"This becomes an expensive solution over time."
"Lacks intelligent management data and intelligent mappings."
"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."
"The high price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"It would be better if we had a clearer view of the solution's future releases."
"Compared to other hyperscalers, Palantir Foundry is complex and not so user-intuitive."
"Some error messages can be very cryptic."
"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."
"It would be helpful to build applications based on Azure functions or web apps in Palantir Foundry."
"The solution’s data security could be improved."
"Difficult to receive data from external sources."
"The workflow could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool is heavily bundle-priced. I rate the solution’s pricing five on a scale of ten, where one is expensive, and ten is cheap."
"The solution's pricing, as per the old approach, is expensive."
"MuleSoft Anypoint Platform really needs to work on its pricing model because it's very complicated."
"Mule is not the cheapest integration platform out there, but it deserves the price we are paying."
"The solution is the priciest in the market which is an issue for some clients."
"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"
"The pricing of our solution is highly competitive. While it may not be categorized as exceptionally low, it is certainly more affordable compared to IBM."
"Making changes in Anypoint MQ is expensive."
"The solution’s pricing is high."
"It's expensive."
"Palantir Foundry has different pricing models that can be negotiated."
"Palantir Foundry is an expensive solution."
