Two good answers so far, both coming down on the side of GG over TTS. My two pennies worth is that for all the difficulties of TTS I would prefer the consistency of taking a full tablepace(s) across intact and knowing no rows could be missing or out of sync. Factor in that TTS does not cost anything extra then it seems a no brainer.
However if you have to have no outage migration (which is not what the op needed) then TTS is no use and GG/Shareplex is the tool of choice.
I have used Shareplex in the past for a migration and it was a good tool. I am sure GG (which we use but not for migrations) is just as good.

Hi
I have had experience with OGG, very good, virtually no downtime (in my
case was aprox 5 to 10 minutes in several migrations). You dont need as
much as preparation as TTS but there are preparations specially migrating
from old 9i to latest versions.
But you need a lot of $$$ to buy OGG because you have to license both source and target systems. I have a few customers had to use other ways such as TTS because of the license costs, you cannot buy OGG just for migration purposes, if the customer cannot find a use for OGG after the migration then they need to seriously considering if it's worth it.
Thanks
