We performed a comparison between Azure Backup and Delphix based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."There is only one feature, and that is the backup."
"The MARS agent makes it easy to use."
"When it comes to Azure Backup, the advantage is that it's native and it's very easy to configure. We don't require a separate tool or manage something on a separate server. At the backend, it's managed by Microsoft itself, and we don't need to manage it."
"I have no issues with the stability at all. So I don't necessarily care about the stability of the product. I look more at whether or not can I recover. And I haven't had a failed recovery yet. I've got no failed recoveries of all my years."
"The initial setup was very easy."
"Setting up Azure Backup is straightforward and the total deployment time was about a month."
"With a couple of buttons, we can configure a VM for a backup and use the wall service, the storage wall service, pretty seamlessly."
"The daily backups have become easier since we no longer need to handle large backups. The use of Azure Backup as a service has proven reliable and simplified our daily operations. Previously, we relied on LTO backups for data retention, but after migrating to the cloud and adopting Azure Backup, the delivery process has become smoother."
"Data being available anytime is a life changer."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is creating virtual databases."
"The performance offered by the product, its price, and its ability to handle structured and unstructured data were good when compared to the other products in the market."
"It provides the ability to roll back to a point in time or roll forward without the assistance of a DBA."
"Delphix's technical support is fairly knowledgeable."
"It's really easy to install."
"In Avamar, the file-based restores are very quick and fast, whereas, in Azure Backup, VM restore is super easy, but if I have to do a file or a folder restore, I have to mount the entire VM image. I have to wait for some time for it to be mounted, and then I have to go inside and then check the file and copy it somewhere. It's a bit of a manual process, whereas in Avamar, you can directly select a file and folder, and it'll recover with whatever permissions you want."
"The product must improve on a database level."
"It can be further improved by continuously meeting its compliance requirements."
"It still does not have a lot of customization, especially if your workloads are not in Azure."
"Technical support is in need of improvement."
"Azure Backup could improve by offering better integration for Oracle databases and enhancing features like granular restore and backup compliance capabilities."
"Azure lacks sufficient solutions for a particular scenario, we may need to resort to using third-party applications. In such cases, these applications can be employed to facilitate backup, replication, and the efficient utilization of internet connectivity and bandwidth. They enable us to effectively manage and transfer data while ensuring optimal utilization of network resources. However, it would be a benefit if we did not have to use third-party applications for these operations."
"The solution’s user interface could be improved."
"As a commercial model, it's very good. However, maybe it would be nice for Delphix to integrate with some other platforms."
"The solution's price needs improvement."
"Could be improved with richer reporting capabilities."
"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."
"One thing I would like to see improved is the unusual error messages we receive and some slowness we have while we are updating."
"My only complaint about this solution is the price."
"Delphix is quite expensive."
"The solution’s self-service portal must be more interactive and user-friendly."
