IBM InfoSphere Optim Test Data Management (TDM) Previous Solutions
Optim established itself in-house because of their archive feature. We began to expand into data privacy and subsetter functions in later years.
EMC offers a product that archives PeopleSoft modules, which we purchased. Sadly, we could not get it to work properly. We soon discovered performance and scalability issues. When we tried archiving data, it was very sluggish. In the end, we used it to archive standalone tables, which proved useless.

I used another solution, but I felt this one had more features. Overall, I would rate this higher than the prior one.

In the past, in-house scripts were being used for production data extraction/masking. We moved to Optim to utilize an industry standard tool to enable the entire enterprise to use a consistent solution for synchronous data refresh across applications.
View full review »We previously used IBM DataStage. There is a lot less flexibility in the InfoSphere DataStage Pack compared to the InfoSphere Optim products for selecting a specific subset of data to be masked. DataStage is driven by supplied SQL statements, whereas InfoSphere Optim is driven by traversing the database model and picking up related data elements from a starting point. Optim has more data privacy options.
