Finds security and customization features impressive, although cost concerns persist
My experience with Palantir Foundry and Azure has been good. Palantir Foundry is costly, but Azure is open, which allows for easier experimentation. Being a closed product, Palantir Foundry is difficult to practice offline unless we have an enterprise edition. However, it is very secure compared to other platforms. Palantir Foundry's best features include security, built-in features, low-code, no-code platform, and ease of use. The collaborative workspaces within Palantir Foundry contribute to team efficiency and project outcomes through seamless operation. The ease of customization is particularly notable. I have worked with the data lineage feature in Palantir Foundry, which comes by default. We simply need to tick the checkbox and make necessary configuration changes within the system itself. We do not need to procure another lineage platform as Palantir Foundry has its own built-in features for data lineage, data governance, and data security. The lineage feature helps enhance our data management practices by allowing us to understand the origin of data, track all activities happening on the data, identify users and consumers, and monitor how it flows across the system. This makes it easier to generate reports based on the lineage database. 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. Using the AIP library within Palantir Foundry helps us develop quick resolutions for predictive models and analytics.

Migration projects have accelerated data processing and now require better latency and support
The latency is the biggest issue across iPaaS. That is the important part. I have worked not only with SnapLogic, but also with MuleSoft, Dell Boomi, and Jitterbit. They are all fine, but they have different kinds of functionality. They all have similar kinds of problems in different domains. But as I mentioned, SnapLogic has a little bit of an edge because of its functionality and inbuilt functions for Fintech, as compared to the others. This I can say firmly. They need to assess themselves. In this day and age, as I mentioned earlier, terabytes of data need to be read and then have a quick turnaround for downstream systems, especially for GenAI or any LLMs. Then they can definitely improve themselves because right now, most things, in fact, the GenAI, ChatGPT, Cloud, Anthropic, and so many others, require data quality with perfection and more precision. But for all of that, we require a data pipeline that can be read without latency and without any delay, for any reason. So if they can improvise that over the cloud, that would be really fantastic and a really good achievement for them. Not only for them, but for the customer as well. Then no matter what, people cannot leave SnapLogic. They need to be there with the snaps. I don't know much about that. I haven't referred to the documentation that much. But support is something that is pretty obviously required, rather than just providing videos. Technical support is required. The roadmap also needs to be very clearly mentioned and specified. Be specific in which domain they are going to do what, if they are coming out with that roadmap. Otherwise, overall, if they are going to improve their entire system as I mentioned earlier, for the reusability concept and the data pipeline concept, then they will definitely do some magic in the future. From the HR point of view, or for HR tech, improvement is required. A couple of connectors are not working with all the relevant APIs, and there is always a restriction in terms of fetching the data. So that is why I chose six. From the Fintech point of view, if you are asking on a scale of one to 10, then I would give it an eight out of 10. It is a huge one. There is always a margin for improvement, so that is why I chose eight. If you talk about HR, sales, or any other domain, there is a significant amount of improvement required.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"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 like the data onboarding to Palantir Foundry and ETL creation."
"The solution provides an end-to-end integrated tech stack that takes care of all utility/infrastructure topics for you."
"Live video sessions enhance the available documentation and allow you to ask questions directly."
"Encapsulates all the components without the requirement to integrate or check compatibility."
"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."
"The interface is really user-friendly."
"The API architecture makes it easy for orchestration."
"I find SnapLogic to be user-friendly, especially for beginners with limited experience in data engineering or ETL."
"I found SnapLogic valuable and what I found most valuable about it was its ETL feature. I also found its automation feature valuable. It can be used for automating manual activities. It can be used as a middleware for certain transactional data processing and minimal datasets and ETL activities."
"It's more developer-friendly, and development can be done at a faster phase."
"You can use other languages, such as Python, and easily connect to other systems."
"Despite having no prior experience in SnapLogic, we managed to build, test, and prepare it for release in just three hours, handling heavy data efficiently."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"The product is easy to use and has many connectivity options."
 

Cons

"The startup pricing is high, causing concern despite being cost-effective in terms of total cost of ownership."
"The solution's visualization and analysis could be improved."
"There is not a wide user base for the solution's online documentation so it is sometimes difficult to find answers."
"Difficult to receive data from external sources."
"The frontend capabilities of Palantir Foundry could be improved."
"The solution could use more online documentation for new users."
"Some error messages can be very cryptic."
"If you want to create new models on specific data sets, computing that is quite costly."
"Ultra Pipelines provides real-time ingestion but it needs some adjustment."
"SnapLogic doesn't provide any on-premises software, so users have only cloud-based software to use."
"The biggest issue we have faced in our company with SnapLogic is regarding the EDI format"
"SnapLogic should have some inbuilt protocol mechanism in order to speed up."
"One of the areas for improvement in SnapLogic is that the connectors for some of the applications should be more available in terms of testing in the dev environment. Another area for improvement is that the logging should be standardized, for example, the integration with an ELK stack should be required out-of-the-box, so you can ship the log and have it in the ELK stack. There should be integration with ELK stack for the log shipping."
"There is room for improvement with APM management and how task execution looks."
"SnapLogic sits somewhere in the middle. It doesn’t offer enough easy canned integrations for its users like some of the easier to use integration apps."
"We'd like there to be more ways for users to get more comfortable and have more experience with the solution to make it easier to use."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution’s pricing is high."
"Palantir Foundry has different pricing models that can be negotiated."
"Palantir Foundry is an expensive solution."
"It's expensive."
"When comparing it with solutions like Apigee or MuleSoft, it still offers better value."
"I used the free trial."
"It is a higher initial cost than other easy-to-use integration apps."
"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."
"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."
"By scaling the solution incrementally the cost is controlled and more beneficial to the client."
"The cost with SnapLogic is an annual license and better than Informatica."
"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."
