    Questions from the Community
    Top Answer:Actifio was very stable. Whenever they identified bugs, they would promptly provide us with patches.
    Top Answer:I think licensing costs are reasonable but we have taxes here in Brazil that make hi-tech products more expensive.
    Top Answer:The area they could improve was when we were in Azure cloud, and Actifio got bought by Google, they stopped supporting us. So that's an area they could improve.
    Top Answer:The product is efficient in handling large volumes of data.
    Top Answer:The product is a little bit expensive. It is almost similar to Broadcom Test Data Manager.
    Top Answer:The solution’s self-service portal must be more interactive and user-friendly. It must give more capabilities to the user. Virtual database capabilities should be added to future releases.
