The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Dataiku no pricing is published at any tier, and the plans page carries no figures at all; Galileo the free plan is limited to 5,000 traces per month, which is quickly outgrown by production workloads.
  • They diverge on capability: Dataiku covers Visual data prep, Galileo covers Pre-built evaluations.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Dataiku

  • No pricing is published at any tier, and the plans page carries no figures at all
  • User, row and compute limits are not stated, so nothing about scale can be assessed before contacting sales
  • Access begins with a demo request or a trial rather than a self serve signup

Galileo

  • The free plan is limited to 5,000 traces per month, which is quickly outgrown by production workloads.
  • Real-time guardrails and unlimited trace capacity are reserved for the custom-priced Enterprise tier.
  • Pro plan pricing scales with trace volume, so costs can grow unpredictably as usage increases.
  • On-premises deployment requires an Enterprise contract rather than being available self-serve.
