If History is any guide... Oracle is famous for misusing atrociouly its own SQL system, and to think it's relational. Particularly its system catalog has many risible errors... I also heard Oracle fails to profit from its own product's data independence like table clusters. But I'd love to have it from someone more knowledgeable.
As for MS, I just heard Navision bashed. Never heard about Great Plains. Also, another company that believes SQL is relational. And none of them are at least ISO SQL compliant in any significant way, if not as bad as MySQL.
