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 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.

As a commercial model, it's very good. However, maybe it would be nice for Delphix to integrate with some other platforms.

Delphix needs better partnerships from a customer perspective. It's how they sell it, not what they're selling.

One thing I would like to see improved is the unusual error messages we receive and some slowness we have while we are updating.
