We've also tested DBVisit and it works well. Also built by a bunch of very
good guys :)

Michael,
Oracle do license Goldengate for temporary use, 1 year at a time minimum
though. You could always cut a deal with Oracle...
DB Visit (and Shareplex and others) are very good. They are not as fast
nor as sophisticated or flexible as integrated Goldengate, but they are
much much cheaper. If they fit your requirements, go for it!

We are also looking at DBVisit Replication. We have not jumped in yet. It
will be to do Oracle to PostgreSQL replication. DBVisit told us that
replication to PostgreSQL will be out this December. We don't use GG due to
cost. It's unfortunate Oracle doesn't license GG for temporary use. It's
the perfect product for temporary licensing (such as 30 or 60 days).
Like Ahmed, I also look for some advice on DBVisit.

Hello All,
Has anybody out there used DBVisit as an alternative to Oracle Golden
Gate Replication.
We are thinking of replacing Oracle Golden Gate 11gR2 with DBVisit
Replication due to the high licensing cost with Oracle GG.
I wanted to know if anybody has had any experience with DBVisit
Replication - good or bad. Any best practices with DBVisit. I was thinking
of setting up a Proof of Concept for DBVisit Replication, any pointers
greatly appreciated.
At the moment we are only doing Oracle to Oracle replication, this could
change in the future eg PostgreSQL.
