Handles large volumes of data with ease, but the self-service portal must be more user-friendly
My advice depends on an organization’s needs. If an organization has a large volume of data, Delphix is a good choice. It is robust and very efficient with large volumes of data and different kinds of databases. If someone is looking for a one-stop solution with all features and capabilities, they must consider a different tool. Overall, I rate the product a six or seven out of ten.

Reliable with good support but needs a better navigation menu
We use Veeam Data to back up our VMware infrastructure Veeam Data Platform is valuable for its stability and the ability to easily contact support for assistance. The support team provides answers whenever we need them. It is also one of the most scalable backup solutions I've worked with. The…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Delphix can do data masking in any format. Not many solutions can do that."
"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."
"It's really easy to install."
"Delphix interfaces are simple to use and very user friendly."
"It is a stable solution."
"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."
"Delphix's technical support is fairly knowledgeable."
"The most valuable feature is VDB provisioning."
"Very flexible, all-in-one solution."
"The direct SAN backup feature perfectly integrates with our 3PAR storage infrastructure."
"The solution is really easy and straightforward to use."
"The documentation is very good. It's also easy to install Veeam Backup and Replication."
"The integration with some storage systems like HP or Nutanix and great support are the most valuable features. You get productivity support. You get a response within one hour, even in the evening or night. The functionality of the whole software is good."
"It is way easier to take backup with Veeam Backup & Replication than the regular ones."
"Veaam ONE is a very good product in virtualized environments."
"I think Veeam ONE is great as it is, it does everything I need."
 

Cons

"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 is quite expensive."
"The solution's price needs improvement."
"GUI could be improved."
"One thing I would like to see improved is the unusual error messages we receive and some slowness we have while we are updating."
"Delphix could be improved with better usability and an agentless option."
"Could be improved with richer reporting capabilities."
"As a commercial model, it's very good. However, maybe it would be nice for Delphix to integrate with some other platforms."
"Compared to IBM, Veeam Data Platform is simpler but brings some challenges with automation in backup and Oracle backup configuration."
"I think that Veeam could improve some performance issues when the backup itself is restored. I'm also using HPE StoreOnce, which has deduplication, and when I'm trying to test or run backups, it takes a lot of time. I think they could improve the testing for backup copies."
"I would like to see a storage application in the next version of the product."
"The initial setup of Veeam Backup Replication is straightforward. The process took approximately two days. The setup could be streamlined to take less time."
"I would like to have the capability of backing up a physical machine, as opposed to just a VM."
"Veeam ONE could improve by having capacity planning, intelligent automatization, and ransomware."
"Backup speed should be increased, and there should be more functionality."
"It is efficient but can improve security-wise."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost is $370K annually for the Delphix Masking Engine and Delphix Virtualization Engine."
"The product is a little bit expensive."
"It is an expensive solution."
"Delphix's pricing is affordable."
"I would say the price is a little high but affordable for our needs."
"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."

"For now, I think the pricing of Veeam ONE is quite okay for any of the infrastructures, especially for those who want a backup system and a tool that provides monitoring services."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is expensive and ten is cheap, I rate the solution's pricing a nine out of ten."
"We spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on Veeam each year, although it is not expensive for what we get."
"The price of the solution is high."
"This is an expensive solution and came at a higher cost than expected."
"Veeam has been raising its prices in the last two years, so it's now lacking some competitiveness in pricing."
