Here are some excerpts of what they said:
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.""The most valuable aspect is the product is easy to manage, with a good dashboard. We can easily configure it on the front end and back end.""The most valuable feature is VDB provisioning.""It provides the ability to roll back to a point in time or roll forward without the assistance of a DBA.""The product is efficient in handling large volumes of data.""Delphix's technical support is fairly knowledgeable.""Delphix interfaces are simple to use and very user friendly.""The most valuable feature is creating virtual databases."

"It's something I needed for bulk imports. I'm not a big fan of it, but I haven't seen anything better.""I have found its most valuable features to be its package management capabilities and the flexibility it offers in designing workflows.""It has the ability to be deployed into the cloud through Data Factory, and run completely as a software as a service in the cloud.""The performance is better than doing it in some alternative ways. We don't have to worry about so much manual work.""It is easy to set up. The deployment is also very quick.""The product's deployment phase is easy.""The main value of any Microsoft product is the ease of use. You can achieve more with less time. That's what's beneficial for me. With many competitors, you might need to spend more time coming up with a solution because you have to focus on taking care of the product.""Data Flows are the main component we use. These can range from a simple source to sink ETL, to many source to many sink dataflows."

More SSIS Pros →

Cons
"Delphix needs better partnerships from a customer perspective. It's how they sell it, not what they're selling.""Delphix could be improved with better usability and an agentless option.""Could be improved with richer reporting capabilities.""This product should be extended and made to be a more comprehensive storage solution.""The solution’s self-service portal must be more interactive and user-friendly.""My only complaint about this solution is the price.""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.""GUI could be improved."

More Delphix Cons →

"There are a lot of things that Microsoft could improve in relation to SSIS. One major problem we faced was when attempting to move some Excel files to our SQL Server. The Excel provider has a limitation that prevents importing more than 255 columns from a particular Excel file to the database. This restriction posed a significant issue for us.""Tuning using this solution requires extensive expertise to improve performance.""It should have other programming languages supported as well from a scripting perspective. Currently, only C# and VB.NET are supported, which limits it to .NET. It should have Java support as well.""It's difficult to refactor SSIS. It gets cumbersome to reuse the solution.""Microsoft should offer an on-premises support warranty for those using that deployment. They seem to be withdrawing from on-premises options.""We'd like them to develop data exploration more.""It's a legacy tool, that is nearing the end of its useful life.""Future releases should improve the data lineage, as it currently is not good."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The cost is $370K annually for the Delphix Masking Engine and Delphix Virtualization Engine."
  • "Delphix's pricing is affordable."
  • "I would say the price is a little high but affordable for our needs."
  • "It is an expensive solution."
  • "The product is a little bit expensive."
  • "I rate the product price seven to eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is the low price, and ten is the high price."
  • More Delphix Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "This solution has provided an inexpensive tool, and it is easy to find experienced developers."
  • "My advice is to look at what your configuration will be because most companies have their own deals with Microsoft."
  • "This solution is included with the MSSQL server package."
  • "It would be beneficial if the solution had a less costly cloud offering."
  • "Based on my experience and understanding, Talend comes out to be a little bit expensive as compared to SSIS. The average cost of having Talend with Talend Management Console is around 72K per region, which is much higher than SSIS. SSIS works very well with Microsoft technologies, and if you have Microsoft technologies, it is not really expensive to have SSIS. If you have SQL Server, SSIS is free."
  • "We have an enterprise license for this solution."
  • "It comes bundled with other solutions, which makes it difficult to get the price on the specific product."
  • "All of my clients have this product included as part of their Microsoft license."

    Technology has made it easier for businesses to organize and manipulate data to get a clearer picture of what’s going on with their business. Notably, ETL tools have made managing huge amounts of data significantly easier and faster, boosting many organizations’ business intelligence operations There are many third-party vendors offering ETL solutions, but two of the most popular are PowerCenter Informatica and Microsoft SSIS (SQL Server Integration Services). Each technology has its advantages but there are also similarities on how they carry out the extract-transform-load processes and only differ in terminologies. If you’re in the process of choosing ETL tools and PowerCenter Informatica and Microsoft SSIS made it to your shortlist, here is a short comparative discussion detailing the differences between the two, as well as their benefits. Package Configuration Most enterprise data integration projects would require the capacity to develop a solution in one platform and test and deploy it in a separate environment without having to manually change the established workflow. In order to achieve this seamless movement between two environments, your ETL technology should allow the dynamic update of the project’s properties using the content or a parameter file or configuration. Both Informatica and SSIS support this functionality using different methodologies. In Informatica, every session can have more than one source and one or more destination connections. There are… Read more →
