Delphix vs Veritas NetBackup

• Delphix has been giving me an edge by allowing me to push test data management capabilities to the developer/tester empowering them to be their own data operator to bookmark, rewind, and refresh data as needed.
• My data stays protected with security policies and regulatory compliance.
• Delphix is also a great tool as it can move and manage data from any premises, cloud, or environment.

• The GUI is very old looking. This does not kill the performance, it just looks to be 10 years old.
• Some things need to be done from the CLI(command line interface). if you have not used this before it will take some learning and a good understanding of Linux.

• We never experienced a significant system or data loss during the time we used NetBackup. We restored individuals files and small databases based upon user mistakes, but we never had to implement a DR plan. From that aspect, it is difficult to evaluate the ROI. Backups are a commodity service. Features are very similar across multiple tools. Once you decide to stay on-prem or move to the cloud, the list of options are narrowed. Then it becomes a matter of price.
• From an administration and support perspective, the ROI is low. Vendor technical support is not always responsive. The first two tiers of support are not knowledgeable and their typical recommendation is to read the white paper. My small team spent a lot of time troubleshooting NetBackup, often without much vendor help.
