Dbvisit testimonials
Was it Einstein who once said "Things should be as complex as they need to be, but no more ..."?
I'm sure he would think that Dbvisit hit the mark! As the solution takes a complex problem and distills it down to reliable, cost effective, and easy to use product. It works as advertised, the manual is comprehensive/to the point, and the support is great!
If anyone is considering this product, give it a try, it sells itself.

Dbvisit is exactly as advertised: a high-value, highly reliable, easy to install and easy to configure disaster recovery solution - at a fraction of the cost of using Oracle's disaster recovery solution.
We set up both onsite and offsite standby servers and pretty much forget about them.
Dbvisit just works.
Highly recommended.

Dbvisit is a wonderful cost saving Oracle disaster recovery solution for those companies with Standard Editions of Oracle. It was easy to install and I received above and beyond customer service. I definitely recommend Dbvisit.

Save 85% on Oracle license and support fees.
Dbvisit is for Oracle database users who require business continuity and high availability (HA) in case of a disaster, outage or failure, but do not want to upgrade to Oracle Enterprise Edition to enable Data Guard. Therefore saving 85% on Oracle license and support fees*.
Our product is now considered the most popular standby database, disaster recovery and replication solution worldwide for Oracle databases.

Dbvisit saved us: Our internal Oracle database server failed and we had to failover to the standby server. The failover was entirely successful.

Disaster Recovery for everyone:
Oracle Disaster Recovery used to be the domain of large corporate organisations because of the costs and complexity involved. Now with Dbvisit, DR has become accessible for all types of organisations.

I think that this product is one of the best products I have ever used during last decade. Installation is very easy and straightforward, the installation guide provided with the software is as easy as ABC and the support team you have is amazing.

Are you prepared for a data disaster?
93% of companies that suffer significant data loss are out of business within 5 years (US Bureau of Labour).

Oracle Disaster Recovery (DR) is vital, without it your business could shut down in an emergency. More and more companies are required to comply with industry regulations in terms of security and data accountability. What is Dbvisit?
Dbvisit is an automated standby database high-availability software solution and is a real alternative for Oracle Data Guard without the cost and complexity. See a comparison between Dbvisit and Data Guard. Dbvisit works with Oracle RAC, Oracle Enterprise Edition (EE), Oracle Standard Edition (SE), Standard One, XE and other Oracle features such as ASM, OMF and Flash Recovery (FRA).

Unlike other solutions our product is flexible, cost-effective, easy to use and does not require upgrading to Oracle Enterprise Edition to be protected in case of internal and external disasters or failures.

How does it work?
Dbvisit automates the synchronisation of a hot standby database at a remote or local location. A standby database is like having an online hot backup of your database instantly available 24x7. There is no need to restore in the event of a disaster (which is very time consuming), as there is instant data recovery and database recovery. It is possible to switch over to the standby database in a matter of minutes to allow business continuity in an emergency.

Dbvisit provides:

  • Automatic creation of the standby database from normal, RAC or ASM databases (with restartability). Transporatable Media support for very large databases or slower networks.
  • Automatic Graceful switchover to reduce downtime during maintenance outages or failback after disaster using its role reversal capabilities.
  • Time-delayed standby database updating enabling data loss due to human error or software error to be recovered.
  • Compression used to ensure distance independency and minimum bandwidth requirement between production and standby systems.
  • Complete protection from all types of failures, including software and human errors, faulty batch jobs, sabotage as well as natural or man made disasters.
  • Easy to use with no training required. Simple failover process.
  • Works with all editions of Oracle on Linux, Unix and Windows.
  • Usability of the standby systems for additional purposes (e.g. reporting, backups, analysis) without any impact on the production systems during normal operations.
  • Supports all Oracle features such as RAC, ASM, OMF and Flash recovery area.
  • Secure encrypted transport mechanism on all platforms including Windows.
  • Continuous and consistent hot backup of your databases.
  • Supported for Oracle 8i, 9i, 10g and 11g.

Why Dbvisit:
Unlike other generic Disaster Recovery products, we focus solely on Oracle and do not compromise on features and functionality to ensure that your Oracle databases are protected. We support all Oracle features such as RAC, ASM, OMF and Flash Recovery, maximising the benefits of using Oracle.

Cost-effective:
Dbvisit is a cost-effective Oracle standby database solution compared with upgrading to Oracle Enterprise Edition (EE) to enable utilisation of Oracle Data Guard. The price difference between Oracle Standard Edition (SE) and Oracle Enterprise Edition (EE) is US$30,000* per processor.

Reporting - return on investment:
Dbvisit maximises return on standby hardware investment as processing loads can be offset to the standby database. For example, your standby database can be used for reporting or datawarehousing purposes which would otherwise impact your primary database. Or backup your database in the middle of the day from your standby database.

What makes Dbvisit successful:
Dbvisit is a great simple alternative to Data Guard. Dbvisit has all the main features of Data Guard and more. Dbvisit is easier to use and more secure than Data Guard. There are no complex commands to learn and the database does not have to be reconfigured. Dbvisit is a safe, robust, efficient and secure solution for any business wanting to ensure disaster recovery.

Peace of mind with Dbvisit:
Dbvisit will work with all configurations of Oracle which means if you change or upgrade your Database configuration, Dbvisit will continue to maintain your standby database(s). Use Dbvisit together with Oracle RAC to give you high availability (HA) and disaster recovery (DR) at a cost-effective price.

Eliminate upgrade dependencies:
Future proof your investment as Dbvisit will work with all versions and features of Oracle (from 8i onwards both 32bit and 64bit). Dbvisit works on Windows, Linux and Unix.
