We performed a comparison between DATPROF and SQLDetective based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Delphix, Broadcom, DATPROF and others in Test Data Management."The data modeling software gave additional insights for debugging in the case of circular foreign keys."
"We have some customers who are in both SAP and non-SAP. When we do scrambling for different applications, it is extremely important that DATPROF and the SAP applications talk to each other and synchronize. Otherwise... [an] identity [can be] lost, from a name perspective."
"I am very impressed with the capabilities of the software."
"The most valuable feature is that it's easy to use... We were able to quickly port a JD Edwards application into the DATPROF solution and we were able to scramble the data in that application. It's a single tool that helps us to do that across applications."
"The most valuable feature of DATPROF Privacy for us is the possibility to mask sensitive test and development data on different kinds of databases. Furthermore, the tool comes with different useful masking functions. It is possible to mask deterministic and it is possible to add your own functions. The tool has an intuitive interface and customer support is fast and efficient."
"Its ease of use is valuable. It's pretty straightforward. With minimal training or with minimal guidance, it can be used."
"Technical support is good. They are friendly and fast."
"We can create synthetic test data for our different development teams without needing production data, which is an excellent capability."
"SQLDetective made our lives a lot easier."
"SQLDetective has been the first alternative that I used which allowed access to huge tables and in a convenient fashion."
"Scenarios and a highly customizable user interface are the two pillars that our decision for SQL Detective was based on as well as the TKPROF front-end."
"It works pretty well as a standalone development and management front-end."
"Right now, we need to make process agreements with our supplier to keep our source and target database in line with the current production version. This may become an issue when (if) we reach a CI/CD level with multiple releases per day."
"From what I know, there are some challenges with respect to the number of data formats that can be made available. This is something that can be improved."
"The synthetic data-generating element of the tool is relatively new, so we sometimes encounter bugs, though when we inform DATPROF, they act quickly to fix any issues. Of course, the fewer bugs we face, the better."
"I feel that we have to do a lot of reworking of the template implementations... Maybe it is a limitation, but as a customer, it feels like we need to start from scratch every time. It would help if we could reuse at least some of what we have already done."
"They could improve the solution by expanding the APIs. If there were options to integrate it with other solutions, that would help."
"Although it is possible to mask flat files inside DATPROF Privacy, the current solution is solid. However, it can be improved with an improved user interface."
"We organized the orchestration via ServiceNow/Runbook. It would be nice if DatProf software had this functionality as well."
"The product could be improved by adding functions to mask flat files and XML data."
"I would not switch to a Mac version of SQLDetective or Linux. CLI is sufficient in most cases anyway on one of those two operating systems where any way to access information is better than none."
"Maybe one day, we could participate into a script repository as discussed in the early days of SQLDetective."
