Room For Improvement

Palantir Foundry users seek better documentation, reduced costs, performance improvements, enhanced UI, and increased flexibility in data integration.
SnapLogic users seek better transparency, debugging, customization, and performance, alongside improved support, documentation, and expanded integration and processing capabilities.
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.
PALANTIR DATA ENGINEER at a healthcare company with 10,001+ employees
I want to build conversational BI or conversational agents quickly that can connect to MCPs, and other MCPs that I can communicate with in Palantir Foundry, which are areas to advance forward.
Principal Architect at HCLTech
An improvement would be that in case of any changes done by the Palantir team, those changes need to be tested thoroughly so there are no downstream impacts, ensuring that the business is not affected by any modifications in the system.
Engineer, Data Engineering at GlobalFoundries
We require a data pipeline that can be read without latency and without any delay.
Architect at a transportation company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Having more granular control and deeper insights into execution performance would really help.
Sre at Akamai Technologies
IP whitelisting is the area that SnapLogic definitely has to improve.

Setup Cost

Palantir Foundry's high initial costs deter some, but it's cost-effective long-term; pricing varies for larger enterprises.
SnapLogic offers a tiered subscription model that may be costly but provides value for mid- to large-scale integrations.
Its high initial pricing can be intimidating, but it becomes cost-effective as it reduces the need for a development team.
Enterprise Architect at a mining and metals company with 10,001+ employees
In terms of getting a contractor to work on that, I would probably say it is more expensive because there are fewer people with that skillset compared to, say, Databricks or Azure.
Data Development Manager at a healthcare company with 5,001-10,000 employees
We can consult it in the right way regarding Palantir Foundry use, as it is still a gray area right now concerning costing.
Principal Architect at HCLTech
In terms of setup cost, it is relatively low compared to traditional on-premises tools.
Sre at Akamai Technologies
I feel SnapLogic is very expensive compared to others.
Integration Solution Architect at Hitachi Digital
There would be only one point of improvement if the price could be lower.

The main advantage is you can decentralize the analytics, and you will have everything in one place, so that you do not need to rely on multiple departments working on different tools.
Associate Vice President at a insurance company with 10,001+ employees
The low-code solutions made our lives easier because not everybody is too technical to get started and the barrier to entry is very low.
Consultant at a tech vendor with 1,001-5,000 employees
I also like the whole child-parent pipeline feature; it allows me to break up a process into smaller pieces and then have one big pipeline that controls these smaller pipelines.
Head of Data Practice at a tech consulting company with 201-500 employees
SnapLogic provides inbuilt Snaplets, such as creating and closing an audit ID, removing duplicates, joining tables, writing to Oracle, files, XML, SF, SMTP connections, and more.

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.

Low-code integrations have automated workflows and save time across enterprise applications
They can enhance the error handling and debugging part. Troubleshooting complex pipeline failures can be time-consuming. We are spending a lot of time on error handling. More detailed error messages and root cause analysis tools can be added, which will definitely improve the developer experience. In the Ultra real-time integrations, we can monitor the last execution history of only 100 runs. That can be increased, which would be one of the platform improvements that can really be taken. However, they are doing very well because lots of ChatGPTs and AI assistants have been added in the last two years, which makes a very good effect. SnapLogic is the only platform that provides this kind of visibility to the developers. Anyone, even if they have low experience and are starting their IT careers, can directly jump in and learn SnapLogic. The documentation is very easy to learn. Anyone, even a layman, can refer to that documentation and go through its Snap-pack to understand what configuration has to be done to use this Snap-pack. This makes SnapLogic definitely exceptional in the market. You won't find such comprehensive documentation in other iPaaS tools. The draggable packs truly demonstrate its power in usability. Governance and security are also well in place in SnapLogic, but there are areas for improvement. They can add more granular role and permission controls that provide greater flexibility for large enterprises. For example, if you have to provide access to 70 users in one shot, that can be improved. More improvements in policy enforcement capabilities are possible as well. SnapLogic can improve the data lineage part to achieve better end-to-end visibility into data movement. Also, during validation, we can only see up to 2,000 records currently. They can increase that from 2,000 to 20,000. They can put more visibility on costs and resource visibility, with better reporting on platform usage, processing consumption, and cost optimization opportunities.
