Featured Reviews

PrashantSoni - PeerSpot reviewer
It simplifies managing large volumes of data and the support is prompt
I rate Hitachi Data Instance Director 10 out of 10. I would recommend it depending on your requirements. If you have a larger and more complex operation, data availability and retention will give you a headache HDID is what you need. Enterprises with a large data volume and high business complexity, should absolutely go for HDID to get some peace of mind.
Amit-Rastogi - PeerSpot reviewer
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

"We are a bit restless. When we need things, we need them yesterday. Hitachi was the only company who responded quickly with the POC, proposals and technical discussions. When we have asked other vendors to provide a technical solution, they were a bit late, and we were in hurry."
"The most valuable feature is VDB provisioning."
"It's really easy to install."
"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."
"It provides the ability to roll back to a point in time or roll forward without the assistance of a DBA."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is creating virtual databases."
"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."
"It is a stable solution."
 

Cons

"The integration with VMware vRealize Orchestrator isn't smooth. It works, but we still need to go back and forth on certain technical aspects."
"GUI could be improved."
"It would be good if any CI/CD and DevOps-aligned feature could be triggered through the DevOps pipeline."
"My only complaint about this solution is the price."
"The solution's price 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."
"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."
"The solution’s self-service portal must be more interactive and user-friendly."
"Delphix needs better partnerships from a customer perspective. It's how they sell it, not what they're selling."
