I have only used Oracle ( fairly bad implementation, imo) and never have seen SAP. What matters is the implementation, not the core system vendor. SAP can provide an incredible amount of customization , if you can pay for it (at least that is what some buddies at SAP say).

Oracle strategy is to provide more and more services and software around the ERP fringe and making their own application more sticky and getting a bigger piece from the IT wallet. At the company I work for, that strategy is surely working, whether the users like it or not :-(.

I used some Oracle stuff and some SAP stuff (couple years ago). In my experience SAP was crap. Oracle deployment I use currently is half crap too. I respect Oracle much more for their DB division and well for Sun stuff they bought (Java, etc.). Of course, that's my technical user bias - I like the backend technology, not the front end superugly ERP. But yea, ORCL is quite an enterprise SW squid. :)
