Likelihood to Recommend REST API calls are available for all Delphix activities. Delphix makes it simple to move data between production to other test or QA environments. Through the replacement with a dummy, yet realistic data of the customer or patient data, you reduce the danger of data breaches for any and all copies of data you produce.
Read full review The tool is excellent when you need to provide all the details about your clients, yet hide their identity - all while maintaining the referential integrity of the data (so child-records of the masked parent record and maintain the same fake ID of the parent).
Read full review Pros Fast refresh of production data to non-production environments. Easy to automate tasks in Delphix (Bookmark, Rewind, Refresh, etc.) and build pipelines in tools like Jenkins. Enables CI/CD push button build of new virtual database and also the ability to automate regression testing scenarios as well as provide a simple way to expose self-service to developers & testers. The staff at Delphix are knowledgeable and take a genuine interest in helping their customers succeed. The support organization is among the best I've seen. Delphix is good at notifying customers of bugs & features striking a good balance on sending the right amount and type of communication. Delphix is always improving the product and fixing any bugs quickly and transparently. Delphix Data Masking product works as described and allows for multiple streams of masking concurrently to complete masking faster. Read full review It offers several ways in which you can mask your data; for example, you can choose to replace all names with "real fake names", or choose to replace all SSNs with existing SSNs, but randomly assigned. You control the algorithm. It works on non-Oracle databases as well (in our case, we use it for both Oracle and SQL/Server). The overhead is minimal (it doesn't take long to run, and it doesn't consume too many system resources. Read full review Cons Delphix is a hefty solution for virtualization, but it is not strong enough for the creation of data, so we have to use another platform when it comes to creating new data. Moreover, Delphix web pages do not support AD security groups which eventually results in hassle if you have a large number of users to create and maintain passwords. Read full review The learning curve was not trivial - but we got through it. Cost - this product is not cheap. Read full review Support Rating Delphix support could be a little better. It seems sometimes we bounce through support engineers until we get one that understands our issues and know how to fix it.
Read full review Alternatives Considered The other competitors in the market are Solix and Data Global and SAP. The pricing and the UI are much simpler and easy to put Delphix in the top spot.
Read full review We also looked at Delphix: the tool was quite powerful, easy to use, and competitive from a cost standpoint. However, since our entire data warehouse environment is built on the Oracle technology stack, it made sense to us to use the Oracle product here, as it integrates very well with other Oracle database and ETL products.
Read full review Return on Investment Positive ROI on the first year. Low TCO as really easy to use and manage. Avoid technology vendor lock in. Avoid technology difficulties to manage data, one ingested Delphix is on charge. Read full review We have many compliance regulations we need to adhere to. Without this tool, we were always taking a risk of exposing client information, and get penalized by the State of the Feds (the financial consequences are significant). So while the tool doesn't save us money directly, it greatly reduces the risk we had been taking all these years. To some degree, this is much like an insurance policy. Given the above, it also allows us to share information with other departments/agencies, in situations where before we simply couldn't take the risk of exposing client information.
