Find out in this report how the two Test Data Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It saves us time from generating the same amount of data in real-time."
"The solution has a portal where we can create data. We can also create synthetic data with the help of the product. We can use it to create a new data set in the database, eliminating many issues. The product helps with data accuracy and availability."
"It removes manual intervention. A lot of the time that we've spent previously was always manually, as an individual running SQL scripts against databases, or manually going through a UI to create data. These solutions allow us to incorporate automation and self-service to eliminate all of our manual efforts."
"What I find to be most valuable is its ability to do synthetic data creation. I love that because it has a lot of flexibility and you do not have to worry about one specific database or how you are going to manage all the data points."
"Broadcom TDM's best feature is the self-service portal."
"The masking of data has really been key for us to be able to replace PII with fake values."
"The solution is very user-friendly. For instance, if I wanted to create a project with Data Generation, Data sub-setting, Selective sub-setting, and Data Marketing, it can be easily done in TDM. And if you want to export these project definitions from one system to another, it can be done with just one click."
"Core features that we needed were synthetic data creation, and to be able to do complex data mining and profiling across multiple databases with referential integrity intact across them. CA's product actually came through with the highest score and met the most of our needs."
"It provides the ability to roll back to a point in time or roll forward without the assistance of a DBA."
"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."
"It's really easy to install."
"The most valuable feature is creating virtual databases."
"Delphix interfaces are simple to use and very user friendly."
"Data being available anytime is a life changer."
"Delphix's technical support is fairly knowledgeable."
"Needs a better fit and finish."
"I would request to extend the data source support because there are a lot of cloud-native SaaS-based solutions in the market. Like, Azure has its data sources, Amazon-specific data sources, and there are a lot of proprietary data sources outside as well. I recommend the team to expand the data source support."
"The relationship between cables needs to be added."
"Broadcom Test Data Manager is for data management. I would like to see some extension with data warehousing concerning ETL. It should also integrate with Jira or other reporting tools. Currently, after creating data, we update tickets and other information in various tools. This would enable us to attach relevant files or information to specific tickets."
"Broadcom TDM takes a long time to import documents, which wastes time that could be spent on other things."
"They could make it easier to model databases, because right now it is really technical, so to train someone on it takes a while."
"Needs improvement on SAP test data generation for SAP testing."
"It has a feature called TDM Portal, where testers can find test data by themselves, based on multiple models. They can reserve the data so that it belongs to one group or individual. Obviously, that data is not available to anybody else... This feature is for one environment. But if a different group of testers wanted that data for a different environment, they can't use it via CA TDM. That feature doesn't exist."
"Delphix needs better partnerships from a customer perspective. It's how they sell it, not what they're selling."
"One thing I would like to see improved is the unusual error messages we receive and some slowness we have while we are updating."
"GUI could be improved."
"The solution’s self-service portal must be more interactive and user-friendly."
"Delphix is quite expensive."
"Delphix could be improved with better usability and an agentless option."
"The solution's price needs improvement."
"This product should be extended and made to be a more comprehensive storage solution."
