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

"It provides the ability to roll back to a point in time or roll forward without the assistance of a DBA."
"It is a stable solution."
"Data being available anytime is a life changer."
"Delphix can do data masking in any format. Not many solutions can do that."
"The most valuable feature is VDB provisioning."
"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 product is efficient in handling large volumes of data."
"It's really easy to install."
"Veeam Backup & Replication is a great alternative to what is out there. Some of the backups just allow an agent backup to the cloud. You can back up a thousand different ways, but this is a great way to keep a customer and a company in compliance in that they've got their data secure onsite and offsite. The data being transferred to the NAS at the customer's location and also the data being sent to the cloud is encrypted in transit and it's also encrypted at rest so that nobody is going to be able to hack into that. No one will have the keys to do that."
"Continuous Data Protection is a game-changing technology."
"The solution works well in two different environments, whether it is on-premises, cloud, or a combination."
"It most valuable features are seeding and faster backups over small links."
"The most valuable data protection features in Veeam are encryption and error handling."
"The most valuable feature of Veeam Backup & Replication is the ease of use."
"One valuable feature of Veeam ONE for backup management is its dashboard, which offers a comprehensive view of backups and other essential data."
"The solution is easy to use and have good performance."
 

Cons

"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 self-service portal must be more interactive and user-friendly."
"Delphix could be improved with better usability and an agentless option."
"The solution's price needs improvement."
"Delphix is quite expensive."
"One thing I would like to see improved is the unusual error messages we receive and some slowness we have while we are updating."
"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 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."
"The product must improve its performance."
"The Cloud version is not ready, they need maturity and ease of deployment in terms of management."
"The documentation and communication could be better in Veeam Backup Replication."
"They can improve the features and Veeam Enterprise Manager. The interface and features are kind of limited. It would be good if they can provide more features and a better interface. For example, if I want to provide certain users with the privilege to back up and restore and do day-to-day tasks, I cannot do it in the current version. It is like you either give everything to everyone or no user can have access to anything. In version 9, a lot of features were missing, and it wasn't clear. Version 10 is easier from the communication perspective, and the disk backup option is very clear."
"I cannot recall coming across any features that were lacking."
"The scalability of the product in large organizations is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Its reporting feature could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would say the price is a little high but affordable for our needs."
"The solution's pricing was reasonable and lower than one million."
"The product is a little bit expensive."
"It is an expensive solution."
"The cost is $370K annually for the Delphix Masking Engine and Delphix Virtualization Engine."
"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."
"Delphix's pricing is affordable."
"Its licensing is very simple. We can make changes very easily."
"I acknowledge there are concerns about pricing, specifically in gaining more customers for VM. We've encountered difficulties in convincing them due to pricing issues. So, I rate it a six."
"Veeam products are less expensive than other products. The licensing costs are low and they're pretty affordable."
"It is relatively cheap."
"Setup cost and licensing of Veeam are nothing to complain about when compared to similar products for enterprise backup recovery solutions."
"The product is expensive for small businesses."
"For what it does, the price is acceptable."
"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."
