"Delphix's technical support is fairly knowledgeable."
"The most valuable feature is VDB provisioning."
"The most valuable feature is creating virtual databases."
"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 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."
"The ability to migrate between media over a long period of time. My customers are long-time users, and they have benefited from being able to move between tiers. They have been able to do this within the product."
"It helps our customers protect their data, keep it long-term, and feel pretty secure about it, basically sleeping well at night."
"The solution is really scalable."
"You can scale the product."
"It is more efficient than most traditional backup solutions."
"I have found that the most valuable feature is useful documentation and troubleshooting."
"We are able to run it in an enterprise quite easily with one or two resources."
"Once setup, you do not need to touch it again. You just need to do a formal check on possibly batch updates."
"My only complaint about this solution is the price."
"The solution's price needs improvement."
"This product should be extended and made to be a more comprehensive storage solution."
"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 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."
"Delphix could be improved with better usability and an agentless option."
"The solution’s self-service portal must be more interactive and user-friendly."
"Enhancements are required for backing up our virtual environment."
"They need to reduce the complexity and make the learning curve easier."
"They need to do a better job on Windows, because if you are running Windows, the scalability is more limited than AIX and Linux."
"Stability is very good now. It used to be rocky years ago."
"Generally, the implementation of virtualization could be improved. The workflow service and so on are not working properly."
"RTO is a huge gap for us. If we had a disaster scenario and had to recover a bunch of stuff from tape, the RTO would be too long for us."
"Sometimes we experience trouble with the backup transfer of the control files."
"I would like to see monitoring within the platform: monitoring for storage pools and monitoring for the server's health (e.g., CPU and memory)."
