A couple of years ago, I had a client that used DBVisit (Oracle SE to Oracle Se). For the most part, it worked great. We had a couple of issues with DBVisit in the first few months it was being used. DBVisit support was great to work with, and they quickly resolved the issues. After that we had no issues with the replication, it was easy to setup and monitor.
They were bought out and the new owners insisted on using EE and GG. They told me later that DBVisit was far easier to manage and they regretted being forced to use GG.
Unfortunately NDAs prevent me being any more explicit. I would not hesitate to use DBVisit again.
