Collaborate globally instead of working in silos

Commit and checkout the same files simultaneously from different locations. Resolve update conflicts as they occur.

Your work is never lost

Recovery is automatic after a network outage or server crash. No manual recovery needed.

Get the job done faster

Experience LAN-speed SVN performance for both read and write operations across all sites.

Eliminate additional workload

No need to set up site-specific branches or extra merge operations to avoid conflicts.

Use the tools you’re familiar with

Works with all major Subversion clients with no configuration changes. Continue using the same tools. SVN MultiSite Plus is written in Java and runs under Unix, Linux and Windows operating systems.

SVN MultiSite Plus benefits for administrators

No additional hardware required

Normally installed on the same server as Subversion, or the Apache Web Server used to front-end Subversion at each site.

Easy installation

Intuitive browser interface makes configuration simple. Multiple sites can be up and running in no time.

No change in client configuration

Transparent implementation means client configurations don't change.

No retraining

Works with all major Subversion clients. Written in Java and runs under Unix, Linux and Windows operating systems.

Automated features for easy administration

SVN MultiSite Plus benefits for managers

Significant savings

Significant cost savings are a result of reductions in: development time, downtime, administrative overhead and network bandwidth usage.

More efficient use of global talent

The most talented developers can work together regardless of location, resulting in higher quality in less time. When combined with cross-platform SmartSVN, distributed teams use the same interface for even greater productivity – without retraining.

No retraining

No change to Subversion functionality. Teams continue to use the clients and tools they're familiar with.

Peace of mind

No downtime or data loss with automatic failover and recovery – no human intervention or additional third party backup and recovery solutions required.
