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.
Vasanth Kumar Sabaapathi - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Lead Architect at a manufacturing company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Simplified integrations bring flexibility and efficiency to diverse industries through comprehensive features and robust support
SAP is already trying to make improvements for SAP Process Orchestration by releasing updates every quarter, including patches and modules, and from a security standpoint, while it's a tightly coupled tool, they are introducing a lot of enhancements aligned with current market trends. There are standard contents readily available for starting integrations, which suit around 90% of every industry across verticals including pharma, manufacturing, and employee data central with SuccessFactors integration. Regarding functionality-wise improvements in SAP Process Orchestration, they are now incorporating the Salesforce system. Previously, we needed to rely on a third-party adapter for integration within SAP, but now they are building their own adapters to connect with Salesforce. Additionally, there are options like data connectors using Ariba coming up with SAP Process Orchestration. There's much more to explore, especially as they release new patches, enhancements, and adapters each quarter.

Quotes from Members

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

"The scalability of Palantir Foundry is the part that I love the most."

"The initial setup was straightforward."
"SAP Process Orchestration is middleware where we are able to manage and interact with everything from a single location."
 

Cons

"I want to pass the certification of Palantir Foundry because it is not easy to find the information regarding this certification, making it not accessible for many people, which I think is not good."
"In my use of Palantir Foundry, many people can go in there and create datasets, save datasets, and share datasets. However, if many people make datasets of low quality or if they are using the same name for datasets, it can get very confusing."
"Handling initial onboarding and training for Palantir Foundry has been challenging. We face difficulties in accessing resources, which prompts us to arrange training sessions with Palantir Foundry representatives."
"I think much of the work within Palantir Foundry is still manual, so I might want to write certain automations or develop conversational interfaces rapidly."
"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."
"Palantir Foundry needs more resources to understand and train new, incoming resources to understand the basic knowledge of the entire platform."
"Difficult to receive data from external sources."
"SAP Process Orchestration breaks down sometimes."
"Sometimes, if there is a system-related issue where I have to contact SAP and raise an incident, it takes a couple of days to resolve the issue."
"In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them."
"The usability, for example, is an area where it can be improved upon."
"It does not have all of the industry-standard solutions available in PO and it is not plug and play, so we have to do a lot of development."
"It is not a scalable solution for the cloud. I would not recommend this for organizations that are primarily cloud-based."
"The user interface of SAP Process Orchestration should be more modern to enhance its appeal. It can seem complicated and outdated to new users."
"The solution could be more scalable."
