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 can do data masking in any format. Not many solutions can do that."
"The most valuable feature is VDB provisioning."
"It is a stable solution."
"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 solution's most valuable feature is data cloning."
"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 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."
"Delphix interfaces are simple to use and very user friendly."
"The stability of Veeam ONE is good."
"I like that the solution is very simple to install."
"Veeam Backup Replication's most valuable features are the ease of use, good integration with others solutions, such as Oracle ERP, and by using the UI you can create and achieve operations you want to do."
"It's the most easy-to-use backup replication that I have used so far."
"Setting up Veeam is easy, and it's portable, too."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."
"The fast backup and restore feature is the most valuable."
"Veeam Backup Replication has good performance and can do location-to-location backups. Additionally, it is user-friendly and easy to manage."
 

Cons

"Could be improved with richer reporting capabilities."
"My only complaint about this solution is the price."
"The solution's price needs improvement."
"GUI could be improved."
"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."
"It would be good if any CI/CD and DevOps-aligned feature could be triggered through the DevOps pipeline."
"Delphix is quite expensive."
"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."
"I would like them to move back to host licensing."
"We struggled to stabilize the application. We had an incident which resulted in a loss of data and have terminated this solution due to lack of support from the Veeam team."
"Veeam's support services need improvement."
"Veeam Backup Replication could improve by having more comparably with other hardware with the immutable copy feature."
"I have a problem with the VM. When we started doing a backup, it takes a snapshot for our virtual machines, but when we try it two or three times, in some cases, our virtual machines go to a consolidated state. I don't know why this problem happens. But I still think Veeam is a top-ranking solution."
"The ease of use could be improved, but I don't have a very deep amount of experience in Veeam, so it's difficult to say what could be improved."
"They need to improve their technical side."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost is $370K annually for the Delphix Masking Engine and Delphix Virtualization Engine."
"I would say the price is a little high but affordable for our needs."
"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."
"The solution's pricing was reasonable and lower than one million."
"Delphix's pricing is affordable."
"It is an expensive solution."
"I would say that the product is fairly priced."
"Since our Veeam license is perpetual, we only pay for annual maintenance."
"Room for improvement is actually more in the way of licensing. The really good and useful features are in the Enterprise plus edition, and that one is really expensive."
"The price of Veeam Backup and Replication is expensive."
"We purchase a license annually."
"It is more cost-effective than some of the other solutions, but a lot of that comes down to the fact that we're a reseller. So, depending upon the deal, we do negotiate different price points for different customers. The price varies depending upon the size of the customer, the size of the deal, and the discounts we can negotiate."
"The solution provides flexible licensing options."
"It is an affordable solution."
