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.

Graph analytics have transformed fraud detection and real-time insights for transaction data
The best feature of TigerGraph is the interconnectivity, which is very good for our needs as we were looking for highly connected data such as customer transactions. We needed our database to provide solutions for complex relationship queries quickly, and we can scale it with a large dataset. We adopted TigerGraph because it has massively parallel processing, real-time graph analytics, and deep link multi-hop queries. I find the GSQL query feature to be the most reliable because it is a powerful SQL-like query language designed for graph analytics and complex pattern matching, which is the best aspect of TigerGraph. Scalability is one of the key factors why we chose TigerGraph, as it provides fast analytics when the dataset increases and meets our needs very well.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Palantir Foundry is one of the most advanced tools right now, in my opinion, and it would take over the world very soon."
"It is easy to map out a workflow and run trigger-based scripts without having to deploy to another server."
"In my experience, the best features Palantir Foundry offers are its usefulness for all levels of people from analysts to product managers to software engineers."
"The strength of Palantir Foundry is that there are no limitations, it is well organized, and the data is very secure."
"The interface is really user-friendly."
"Compared to other SaaS tools, Palantir Foundry is definitely a time-saver, though I do not have specific metrics to share."
"Palantir Foundry is a robust platform that has really strong plugin connectors and provides features for real-time integration."
"Foundry's data visualization is fantastic."
"TigerGraph has positively impacted my organization by providing better visualization and transaction patterns compared to our original database, BigQuery, which did not meet client expectations in data representation."
"The impact of TigerGraph has been significant: it reduced complex multi-join query times from minutes to milliseconds, enabled real-time fraud detection across billions of transactions, and cut development effort by over seventy percent because the graph traversal logic that previously required thousands of lines of SQL became just a few dozens of lines of GSQL."
"Since we needed to reduce the query execution time in our application, it has reduced it by up to 60%, data relationship analysis that used to take minutes is now reduced to seconds, and we can process multiple millions of relationships in real-time, which provides significant value."
"TigerGraph has positively impacted my organization through numerous applications in AI, fintech, insurance, and crypto-related use cases."
"TigerGraph has positively impacted my organization, particularly in speed, and while we pay for the license, we see great ROI because we are able to aggregate clients for targeted and specific marketing, increasing revenue and improving the speed with which we can react to customer needs."
"Traditional methods for identifying fraud have resulted in a decrease in false positives of over 50 percent, and when it comes to execution speed, latency reduction exceeds 200 percent after implementing TigerGraph."
"The best features that I found useful in TigerGraph include their already provided algorithms, the user-friendly interface for visualizing graphs, and the ease of connecting nodes and edges by their properties attributes."
"TigerGraph allows you to specify the schema using SQL, similar to how you would with a relational data model, and once you draw your graph model and load the data, you can experiment faster with their available machine learning algorithms using a GUI-driven approach, which makes progress with TigerGraph much easier."
 

Cons

"If it was my choice, I wouldn't sign the contract with Palantir in the first place. I would probably stick to standard Databricks."
"The theme is very monotonous and should be improved."
"Palantir Foundry is very accurate, but I would have doubts about its reliability because there have been instances in my current job where we experience untimely application downtime, which has impacted the business significantly, so I think reliability needs improvement."
"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."
"I would add that live data streaming is very hard and it keeps breaking, so it is not very stable and depends a lot on the satellite network."
"The solution’s data security could be improved."
"Palantir Foundry needs more resources to understand and train new, incoming resources to understand the basic knowledge of the entire platform."
"Palantir Foundry's stability is sometimes good and sometimes not; there are blunders and issues."
"The two points contributing to the lower score are its cost and the challenges encountered while implementing machine learning models."
"That part is actually really important, as TigerGraph is very naive and it is somewhat a beta product. It has always been a beta product, even when they have released so many versions, it was very problematic."
"I chose a rating of eight out of ten mainly because documentation, more demos, and improved customer approachability still present opportunities for improvement."
"GraphStudio has UI/UX issues and bugs."
"TigerGraph could improve by making the community version more complete and not limited to a monolithic service."
"TigerGraph does not have enough number of experts, and in terms of the usability of the product, they are still evolving."
"TigerGraph can improve on certain factors, particularly the simple query language, as the learning curve can be very hard for new users or beginners."
"TigerGraph can be improved by providing more tutorials about G-SQL."
