Pros and Cons

"Data being available anytime is a life changer."
"Our ROI is over $1Mil a year."

"GUI could be improved."

What is our primary use case?

Our primary use case is for Test Data Management. Providing high-quality Production like data to all environments.

How has it helped my organization?

Shortened SDLC processes
Increased quality of development
More time for DBAs
Huge storage savings
Data is always available.

What is most valuable?

Data being available anytime is a life changer.

What needs improvement?

The Product Roadmap is going quite well. GUI could be improved.

Other than that, Delphix as a product is a really good one. We're very happy using it. The support teams are very good and responsive. Should I say that it needs improvement? But it does not. I have worked with many different support teams over the years and so far the Delphix Support Team is the best.

Fast response time and the interface is very user-friendly

Pros and Cons

"Delphix interfaces are simple to use and very user friendly."

"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."

What is our primary use case?

Our primary use case of this solution is to test virtual databases. We copy data from live databases, encode them, test them and then transform them with CA virtual case databases.

What is most valuable?

Delphix interfaces are simple to use and very user friendly. The response time is also fast and copying takes about five minutes.

What needs improvement?

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.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using Delphix for about two months now on premises.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The solution is very, very stable.

How are customer service and technical support?

We encountered a problem when we ran the POC process. We contacted support, the consultant opened a ticket and then it was solved within about five hours to one day. So the support is good.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup and installation was easy and, even though the deployment is not finished yet, the POC process took us about two weeks. We are working with a consultant and a technical test team.

What other advice do I have?

I am really satisfied with this solution and I will rate it an eight out of ten. In the next version I would, however, like to see improved data generation for virtual databases.

Makes Agile Development easy with concurrent virtual databases, but comes at a hefty price

Pros and Cons

"It provides the ability to roll back to a point in time or roll forward without the assistance of a DBA."
"This solution has provided us the ability to apply Agile Methodology for developers, as each developer has their own virtual database from the parent DB, allowing for concurrent development."

"My only complaint about this solution is the price."

What is our primary use case?

Our primary use case for this solution is for database virtualization.

How has it helped my organization?

This solution has provided us the ability to apply Agile Methodology for developers. Each developer has their own virtual database from the parent DB, allowing for concurrent development.

Try copying and spinning up a 1 TB database in three minutes, or provisioning forty-two 1 TB databases in three minutes with a script. Also, consolidation in Delphix means that 42 TB in actual databases equates to 3 TB in databases on Delphix.

What is most valuable?

We find the most valuable to be the Delphix Virtualization and Snapshot features. It provides the ability to roll back to a point in time or roll forward without the assistance of a DBA.

What needs improvement?

My only complaint about this solution is the price.

For how long have I used the solution?

One to three years.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The cost is $370K annually for the Delphix Masking Engine and Delphix Virtualization Engine. This is a bit hefty. After all, it's not made of gold.
