I'll have to echo that sentiment.
Snapshots never give me any trouble.

Subject: Re:General Replication question
Ed,
I've shied away from replication beyond snapshots due to the
requirement to
not modify objects that are registered with the replication manager. Seems
that
as soon as I tell the duhveloper that he/she can not modify the structure,
but
will have to come talk to me. At this point they don't want to continue
down
that path. So no, we don't use replication but it's more of a duhveloper
thing.
As far as snapshots go, I've heard a lot of people claim to have
continuos
problems with them. Wish I could say that it's true, but I can't. We
make
extensive use of snapshots to keep cross database communications down as
much as
possible & don't have a single problem with them.

I'm curious, based on a discussion I had with a DBA here at work, how many people use the replication features of Oracle. I often see replication listed as one of the selling points of Oracle, but it's also very hard to get a class on replication because they are always closing classes for poor registration.
How common is replication (basic or advanced)? It makes more sense to use simple snapshots than DB links for what we are doing, but given that our support from Oracle has been TERRIBLE with snapshot problems, I now wonder if anyone uses them. We are switching to db links, but that can pose potential performance issues with, for example, joins across the db link.
Best,
Ed
