Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The product is efficient in handling large volumes of data.""The most valuable feature is creating virtual databases.""It provides the ability to roll back to a point in time or roll forward without the assistance of a DBA.""Delphix can do data masking in any format. Not many solutions can do that.""Delphix's technical support is fairly knowledgeable.""Delphix's data distribution is powerful. It's easy to distribute data with this solution. The main advantage of Delphix is that it generates copies of data.""It's really easy to install.""The most valuable feature is VDB provisioning."

More Delphix Pros →

"The user interface is good.""The initial setup is straightforward. It's not that complicated. Deployment took maybe about 15 minutes.""The solution allows us to block off our network and only give access to whatever we want.""If a job is pending, the solution communicates it to us through emails.""Having the web-based interface is important to us because we can access it from any computer in the network, rather than having it installed and available for use only on a specific one.""Its dashboard is quite well done. When you log into the GUI, you can basically see everything you need to know. There is also the possibility to edit the view as you like, which is great.""It has File and SQL backup, which is the main benefit for us.""The platform helps us with efficient QoreStor deduplication (DD) capabilities and configuration."

Cons
"Delphix is quite expensive.""Delphix could be improved with better usability and an agentless option.""When it comes to unstructured and structured data, if Delphix can comply with the requirements for most of the structured data, it would be good, especially if it can include the data scanning part.""Delphix needs better partnerships from a customer perspective. It's how they sell it, not what they're selling.""Could be improved with richer reporting capabilities.""GUI could be improved.""As a commercial model, it's very good. However, maybe it would be nice for Delphix to integrate with some other platforms.""Delphix is a strong solution for virtualization, but it's not strong enough for creating data, so we have to use another solution for creating new data."

More Delphix Cons →

"The storage capacity is very low.""The stability of the solution is poor.""The interface can be improved. It should be more clear what features are available and make them easy to find.""There are certain issues with the product that we report to Quest, and we get offered a workaround instead of a fix. There could be better interaction with the development teams, perhaps in terms of transparency.""I would like to see the option of cloud-based management.""There are command-line limitations. There is not a very strong possibility to work with the command line. The commands that are there are not that powerful, and you need to be very good at scripting, for example, in PowerShell or in Bash in case it is running on Linux systems. You need to combine a lot of commands together, and still, you will not get a great output that is presentable to others. You cannot work with it as easily.""The initial setup is a little complex.""In the next version, I would like to see support for the MongoDB database. As it is now, there is no component that works with it and we cannot back the data up using NetVault."
