Oracle Data Integration Platform Cloud (discontinued) vs. Varonis Data Security Platform

I highly recommend the Oracle Data Integration Platform if you are using OBIEE as a reporting tool. ODI offers a large number of solutions. The on-premise product was expensive to implement and maintain. The cloud version is most suitable for small scale to large scale implementations.

For sure it is well suited for companies that need to keep track of their data and that are willing to pay for it. It does an excelent job of monitoring the file's access, with zero impact on Storage's performance. Sometimes it is not enough to be able to restore the data. Sometimes in critical incidents, managers and heads demand to know who caused it. Thanks to Varonis we were able to give them this information easily and in a short time.

I wish the cost was a little bit lower and increase functionality and features would give it 10/10.

Support has always been very responsive and addressed any issues we may have had in the past. Some local engineers are willing to come onsite or work over a web session to discuss creating a new rule set or look at some issues. Getting issues address has never been a problem. There was one feature we had trouble getting to function correctly, but support and local engineers were willing to work with us as much as needed to get it working correctly for our organization.

Oracle replace a popular integrated nationally used platform shared throughout multiple states. The system was responsive and stable, capable of growing with the business needs. Replacing it with Oracle Data Integration Platform has been a large improvement, adding the capability for better live monitoring, faster response times, better disaster recovery options, easier third party integration.

When it comes to data security we all want something stable with good protocol practices. Varonis is good at data analyzing, detecting threats, taking actions and compliance. Varonis needs lots of resources to run and it is somewhat expensive. But still I believe that Varonis does a good job among the other competitors

• Ability to setup reliable disaster recovery.
• Upgrades and performance monitoring tools are readily available.

• Varonis has only been a positive impact on our environment, but helping us close security holes that we didn't know existed.
• This product has also provided piece of mind by watching our environment for Malware attacks and taking automatic actions if necessary.
• This software does require a fair amount of server resources, but fortunately can be hosted in a virtual environment and has made this need easier to handle.
