Oracle UK support is one of the best database supports (this could be that oracle is racing with sybase in europe). Oracle support in US is the worest i have seen. They never call back and close tar's after 30 days if customer does not call back. I don't know where oracle get their suport analysts. Few support people do nothing but read oracle manuals over the phone. Oracle should train their support engineers. I found that RDBMS kernal group is highly knowledgable. I have talked to number of people and most of them agreed how bad oracle US support is. No flames please. I just wanted to tell how i feel about oracle support.
