Very Good Security (VGS) lets companies use and exchange any kind of sensitive data without ever needing to see or hold the data itself. Built on the premise that “you can’t hack what isn’t there”, VGS is on a mission to protect the world’s information by transforming security and privacy from a business obstacle into an opportunity. VGS provides what they describe as a developer-friendly platform to act as a custodian for sensitive data, improving security while also accelerating business…
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.
If you are working with payments and you don`t want to store that kind of data to avoid a lot of strict requirements and headaches with tight processes, strict security, encryption and everything else you can leverage VGS platform to greatly reduce the work needed to enable payments in your system. They also provide tokenization for some other kinds of data but we currently do not use them. VGS platform also provides a product for compliance and controls (VGS Control) which helps you get ready and maintain compliance in your organization.
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.
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.
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.
The support is pretty decent, sometimes take a little bit o time to solve things (not critical things) but that is part of the ticketing/email async communication so its fine. All the times I had to contact support a got my issue solved and a lot of attention from the support team to help solving the issue.
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.
We evaluated Drata as an alternative for VGS Control, but VGS platform control integrates a lot of controls around VGS itself and also with Cloud Infra that we use, which makes the process faster. Also keeping everything with the same vendor makes things easier to manage.
