Pros
"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.""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.""The product is efficient in handling large volumes of data.""It provides the ability to roll back to a point in time or roll forward without the assistance of a DBA.""Delphix interfaces are simple to use and very user friendly.""It is a stable solution.""Delphix's technical support is fairly knowledgeable.""Delphix can do data masking in any format. Not many solutions can do that."

"One of the most valuable features is that I don't need to buy a subscription for any functionality. With Informatica Cloud Data Management, I have all the functionality and features available. If I need to make an integration, I can go to that integration service. If I need to mask, provide, or clean some information, I can easily just pick up that feature and use it. It's very simple, and I have all the functions and capabilities I need to work with data.""The solution's scalability is high."

Cons
"Delphix could be improved with better usability and an agentless option.""One thing I would like to see improved is the unusual error messages we receive and some slowness we have while we are updating.""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.""As a commercial model, it's very good. However, maybe it would be nice for Delphix to integrate with some other platforms.""GUI could be improved.""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 needs better partnerships from a customer perspective. It's how they sell it, not what they're selling.""The solution’s self-service portal must be more interactive and user-friendly."

"Its cloud-based version has a few limitations compared to the on-premise version.""One thing Informatica could improve is the way IPUs are used. Each customer purchases a certain amount of IPUs per month, but you can use more or less than that defined quantity. The only problem is if you don't use the all your IPUs, they don't carry over into the next month. I think customers should have the ability to transfer unused IPUs into the next month or year. This improvement could help give customers more flexibility, especially since cloud solutions need flexibility in how we use and pay for them."
