Hello,

I have been using DB-Shadow for the last year and it is one of the most reliable, performing, easy to use, etc, life saving softwares I have ever used.

I use it in a SAP environment on Windows NT with an Oracle DB 8.1.7 of over 600GB. We have tested the standby environment on 3 occasions and we were able to switch to the DB-Shadow server running SAP in less than 45 minutes.

We also used it in a real life situation, when our production Oracle migration did not work the first time, I restored from the DB-Shadow server in 5 hours, something that with tape restore would have taken over 20 hours.

A special thank you to their team.
