New Look and Feel of Compare Bundle for Oracle

We are glad to announce the release of the updated dbForge Compare Bundle for Oracle. The tools of the Bundle, dbForge Schema Compare for Oracle and dbForge Data Compare for Oracle,  have been improved in-and-out. Besides the great new visual style, the tools include a bunch of new features and options that will definitely make your data and schema diffs management more smooth and convenient.

When this time period expires, dbForge tools for Oracle must be activated with a purchased activation key. The new activation process protects you against potential piracy and provides you with the reassurance that you are using an authentic product that can be trusted with your business data.
