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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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 creating virtual databases."
"It provides the ability to roll back to a point in time or roll forward without the assistance of a DBA."
"Delphix can do data masking in any format. Not many solutions can do that."
"The solution's most valuable feature is data cloning."
"The product is efficient in handling large volumes of data."
"The most valuable feature is VDB provisioning."
"I like all of Veeam's features, but the most important ones are the tape backups and replication. Those are the two options available for us, and it's enough for our needs."
"When it comes to service cases, I would choose Veeam Data Platform over Commvault because restoring from Commvault can be time-consuming due to filtering tasks. Veeam Data Platform, on the other hand, offers a much simpler and faster restore process."
"It integrates easily with third-party solutions compared to other vendors."
"It's scalable."
"The product could be improved if they wrote more PowerShell scripts for controlling Veeam."
"Very reliable and easy to use."
"Veeam ONE effectively centralizes the view of different tools."
"Veeam Data Platform copies data very efficiently."
 

Cons

"It would be good if any CI/CD and DevOps-aligned feature could be triggered through the DevOps pipeline."
"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."
"The solution’s self-service portal must be more interactive and user-friendly."
"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."
"This product should be extended and made to be a more comprehensive storage solution."
"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."
"Technical support can be improved."
"Veeam ONE should make available notifications through SMS."
"While the Veeam Backup Replication tool can mostly back up all the data in the environment, the AIX from IBM backup capabilities nowadays could stand improvement as they are not featured on a single pane of glass."
"The solution could improve by having more user-friendly dashboards."
"Backup speed should be increased, and there should be more functionality."
"In the future, Veeam should release a hardware backup appliance that can be integrated with their software."
"Veeam Data Platform lacks cyber security tools."
"There needs to be more integration with VMware and the virtual machine."
 

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."
"We are happy with the pricing and we pay for licensing on a subscription basis."
"The price of the solution could improve when comparing it to competitors. The market is very competitive and they should have some discounts or special offers."
"We pay for the license of Veeam Backup Replication on an annual basis. The cost of the license is approximately 70,000 rials. The support and maintenance are included in the price."
"Pricing is not the cheapest, but you get a lot of value for your money."
"The pricing of the solution could be reduced."
