Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It is a stable solution.""It provides the ability to roll back to a point in time or roll forward without the assistance of a DBA.""It's really easy to install.""The product is efficient in handling large volumes of data.""Delphix can do data masking in any format. Not many solutions can do that.""Data being available anytime is a life changer.""The most valuable feature is VDB provisioning.""The most valuable aspect is the product is easy to manage, with a good dashboard. We can easily configure it on the front end and back end."

More Delphix Pros →

"It is not like a traditional ETL, but it gives quite a lot of flexibility.""Fivetran is remarkably easy to use; I haven't encountered any other data integration tool that is as user-friendly.""Making the decision to implement Fivetran was supported by the fact that they have better connectors than other competitors.""The general data ingestion is valuable. It's used for a lot of data. It provides about 90% of the data we use in our data warehouse without needing data engineering.""The compare feature is the most valuable piece of it.""The most valuable feature of Fivetran is that it only synchronizes what needs to be synchronized.""The ease of usability is the most valuable feature. It's very easy and quick to set up. It also has a central hub as opposed to GoldenGate which is one direct interface. For GoldenGate I would have needed three interfaces whereas with HVR I have a central interface that manages everything.""Fivetran's most valuable feature is replication."

Cons
"Delphix needs better partnerships from a customer perspective. It's how they sell it, not what they're selling.""My only complaint about this solution is the price.""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.""One thing I would like to see improved is the unusual error messages we receive and some slowness we have while we are updating.""Could be improved with richer reporting capabilities.""This product should be extended and made to be a more comprehensive storage solution.""The solution's price needs improvement.""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 solution is very expensive. I would like to have a better integration of the solution with Azure.""We experience cost issues because Fivetran is charged on a usage basis. When you reach a certain level, the tool should focus on reducing the costs. The solution is expensive when you are moving gigabytes and petabytes of data. It should also focus more on REST APIs and webhooks.""The documentation is decent, but it's hard to find information online about Fivetran. For example, if you try to search for an error code, you won't find much information about it in forums.""More connectors are needed for exotic, popular, and rising star portals.""It should have a few more monitoring functionalities.""Some of the pain points we're looking at are trying to integrate some of the items in the Microsoft stack, so SharePoint and Excel, and then some of the newer Azure services.""The customization could improve because Fivetran gives more thought to people who don't want to manage analytics workflows rather than engineers who want to be able to customize pipelines more thoroughly.""The connections with SAP must be improved."

  • More Delphix Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "I don't have the exact information, but I know it is high, and it is on a yearly basis. There is no additional cost for what we're doing. We're always open to doing things cheaper, so we might potentially implement a different solution."
  • "I've heard that the license for HVR is a bit costly compared to its competitors, but since it's reliable and efficient, I think the customer shouldn't be bothered about the cost."
  • "Fivetran is very expensive, and its database-driven pricing model is outdated."
  • "I can't give exact amounts because that's based on usage, but it's more expensive than some of its competitors."
  • "In the first year, we were given a very good discount. It was approximately 20,000 Euros per year. In the third year, we purchased credit for two years and the price was 33,000 Euros per year."
  • "I would say they're a little bit on the expensive side, and their contract process is not particularly good, but there is a lot of potential flexibility."
  • "The pricing model is okay and mid to large companies will not have an issue with it."
  • "The licensing costs are extremely high for the usage of somebody who has one GB or two GB of usage per day for real-time traffic. There are many other players in the market which are similarly priced or competitively priced. On average per month, it used to come around 12,000-15,000 USD, which is very high."
