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

"Previously, the team used to take more than a week to gather data for a particular entity and make it ready for downstream use cases, and that was reduced from seven days to close to 30 to 45 minutes because everything was automated using pipelines and schedules."
"Palantir Foundry has dramatically helped us in terms of project costing because earlier we had our own React developers team from offshore, and now with the AIP capabilities launched on the platform, we have completely avoided the need for a dedicated team, which has been very helpful in terms of cost management and reducing team size."
"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."
"Palantir Foundry has improved with the generation of AI, and I think the governance and security are both good things to have in Palantir Foundry."
"Palantir Foundry is the future of development because it embeds multiple AI models, and the AI enabling feature is very fast and easy."
"Palantir Foundry is not just a data platform; it actually connects data engineering, analytics, operations, and decision-making all into one ecosystem."
"The solution provides an end-to-end integrated tech stack that takes care of all utility/infrastructure topics for you."
"The strength of Palantir Foundry is that there are no limitations, it is well organized, and the data is very secure."
"One of the key features that differentiates TigerGraph from traditional databases is the way it has been architected, as it does not rely on traditional rows and columns but rather on graphical architecture, which sets it apart from normal relational databases, helping us with analytics and analysis, making it better in terms of performance and processing capabilities."
"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."
"A specific result that reflects this positive impact on my company's market position is that I have almost a 100% win rate on bids for projects that involve graphs, thanks to my experience with TigerGraph."
"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."
"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 has positively impacted my organization through numerous applications in AI, fintech, insurance, and crypto-related use cases."
"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 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."
 

Cons

"Regarding documentation, I find that when I face issues, the outdated documentation is not helpful; for example, while trying to create a webhook to fetch SharePoint metadata, I found available resources lacking relevance, needing significant updates to assist users properly."
"For example, exporting data from Palantir Foundry is very difficult and has many limitations."
"Palantir Foundry has a steep learning curve and onboarding."
"Difficult to receive data from external sources."
"When we were using ETL with Palantir Foundry, we found we had less freedom compared to Cloudera, where we had more liberty in using various configuration parameters of Spark, allowing us to tune our jobs accordingly."
"As a developer, I find the limited documentation and less resource availability restrictive compared to other options such as AWS."
"I believe that the AI or agent needs improvement because sometimes we face difficulties when looking for solutions, and when we ask the agent, AIP, it does not understand our queries and occasionally provides wrong solutions."
"It would be helpful to build applications based on Azure functions or web apps in Palantir Foundry."
"The two points contributing to the lower score are its cost and the challenges encountered while implementing machine learning models."
"TigerGraph can be improved by adding features for multi-updates and in-place upgrades when documents are inserted."
"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."
"TigerGraph does not have enough number of experts, and in terms of the usability of the product, they are still evolving."
"To improve TigerGraph, one key area is its handling of data uploads, where sometimes attribute problems arise without any error indication, resulting in blank spaces in attribute slots."
"TigerGraph could improve by making the community version more complete and not limited to a monolithic service."
"TigerGraph as a product is currently limited in its modularity, being heavily AWS focused, and since we are on Google Cloud Platform, this caused some challenges during setup, although TigerGraph as a service was very proactive in assisting with this."
"I chose a rating of eight out of ten mainly because documentation, more demos, and improved customer approachability still present opportunities for improvement."
