Re: Yosemite

I wouldn't trust any product with a feature list that includes 'Granular selection of individual databases Automatic truncation of transaction logs following backup Redirected database restore functionality ' makes sense if dealing with sqlserver, not with Oracle - unless you want to try 'ALTER LOG GROUP 1 TRUNCATE;' for example.

If the marketing can't even use appropriate terminology, why would I trust the product with my data.

cheers
