We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Technical support is good. They are friendly and fast.""I am very impressed with the capabilities of the software.""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.""The data modeling software gave additional insights for debugging in the case of circular foreign keys.""We can create synthetic test data for our different development teams without needing production data, which is an excellent capability.""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.""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."

"The most valuable feature is data discovery. This is the most exciting feature for all of the banks.""Informatica Persistent Data Masking can mask production data for different users, ensuring that only authorized individuals can access sensitive information.""Informatica provides a comprehensive solution for on-the-fly or real-time data masking.""Informatica is user-friendly, stable, and scalable. These three aspects are the most valuable for us. If we can make it work well with the CRM, we can continue or try again this year to complete that part of the project. I am confident that this kind of solution is what we need because we have a third-party resource that works in the development.""The most valuable features are the structure masking and platform masking."

Cons
"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.""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.""The product could be improved by adding functions to mask flat files and XML data.""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.""They could improve the solution by expanding the APIs. If there were options to integrate it with other solutions, that would help.""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.""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.""We organized the orchestration via ServiceNow/Runbook. It would be nice if DatProf software had this functionality as well."

More DATPROF Cons →

"Informatica's support understands the solution, but they lack the experience we need for our use case. That was one thing that we prioritized when we started searching for this kind of solution.""I have encountered some issues using the substitution, which is one of the techniques of data masking.""Informatica should simplify the rules for setting classifications and user access management permissions. It's too complex to define, configure, and make work.""The data discovery isn't that good yet for Salesforce. We have another tool that we use for this. It may be a problem because Salesforce on the cloud.""Once the data is masked, we won't be able to reverse it back to its original value."

    Overview

    At DATPROF we see and understand the struggle and challenge of software development teams with test data. These data issues have different appearances. It can be in finding or understanding your test data: which set of data should be used to cover your test cases properly? Or it can be getting in control of your test data: do you also have a “test data ghost” - sometimes your test data is there and a second later in can be gone. Or it can be about the challenge of getting compliant without losing the representativeness of data in your development stages. And then there are things called data or databases. Software development teams need to work with test data, but they generally don’t spend too much time on databases or data content in flat formats. Software teams rather spend time in delivering beautiful new code or validating the quality of the software code, as you should. That’s what you love, and that “database thing”, well that’s a need-to-have.

    We envision to solve this issue. We want to make sure your life is once again centred upon delivering or validating software code and quality. We take care that test data is easy accessible and readily available, so you can take care of software quality.

    We improve and innovate our test data software with the latest technologies every single day to support medium to large size organizations to ensure an even better fit with our DATPROF products. The DATPROF test data management suite is module based, so it enables you to select and deploy the modules that fits your needs in your digital transformation stage.

    DATPROF delivers products for:

    • Obfuscating, generating or masking databases and flat files;
    • Extracting or filtering specific data content with our patented subset algorithm;
    • Discovering, profiling and analysing solutions for understanding your test data,
    • Automating, integrating and orchestrating test data provisioning into your CI/CD pipelines and
    • Delivering a portal where test data can be refreshed within a few mouse clicks.
