"It provides the ability to roll back to a point in time or roll forward without the assistance of a DBA."

"It is a stable solution."
"The most valuable feature is creating virtual databases."
"Delphix interfaces are simple to use and very user friendly."
"Delphix can do data masking in any format. Not many solutions can do that."
"Ability to define reports based on SQL query, especially when you have complex report criteria."
"IBM Guardium Data Protection has better integration options than most of the leading competitors on the market, and the price is always better."
"The solution has definitely saved us time, because if you want to monitor this kind of vast environment of different products, it's going to take a lot of time. Let's say one database server has 100 database instances running on it; I don't need to install 100 data instances, I just need to install on the one database server and that will cover all of my instances on that particular database."
"he solution offers trouble-free access."
"There are different modules but the most valuable ones are firewalling and masking. Additionally, the auditing of the entire database is helpful, which includes all the activity of the database users and administrators. We can monitor everything and log as well."
"It supports our audit compliance."
"Guardium does a great job of capturing data and having the ability of trying to pull it out and make sense of it. Using it for business applications is its biggest capability."
"It's one of the first to encrypt DB2 databases."
"The solution's price needs improvement."
"Delphix could be improved with better usability and an agentless option."
"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."
"GUI could be improved."
"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 is quite expensive."
"Delphix needs better partnerships from a customer perspective. It's how they sell it, not what they're selling."
"The solution’s self-service portal must be more interactive and user-friendly."
"The integration part of the present solution is very complex and tedious. Plus it gives a lot of false positives which need to be eradicated over time."
"I am struggling getting through to social."
"I have already mentioned to IBM that a primary need is to improve the number of records in the reports above 65,535."
"The documentation could be better."
"One of the limitations that everyone who uses Guardium knows is its ability for back-end reporting. The ability to collect it sometimes is easier than the ability to retrieve it, use it, or give a good representation of it for incidence response or questions which come from the different people who want to use the data."
"Right now we're having some issues where it's using a high CPU, we don't know why. So, better testing before the product is ready would help."
"More automation, user guides, and tips would make this solution better."
"It will not go as fast as you want. "
