We seem to hit a new and exciting failure at almost every patch cycle, requiring yet another a SR to be opened. Occasionally one gets resolved quickly, but this generally ends up delaying patching by at least a week or two. Support quality varies (Oracle does have one or two decent ODA folks), but I certainly wouldn't disagree with Andrew for the general case.

Lets just say that I'd recommend looking at all available alternatives.
