Why wouldn't you trust your business data in one of the most popular
database engines in the world? Personally I'd be very happy to store my
business data in MS SQL Server and I would imagine most people would.
Certainly I wouldn't differentiate between Oracle and MS SQL in terms of
reliability.
And if you're already providing MS SQL for your customers surely you
already have licenses etc so there won't be any / much extra cost?

I like Playutypus but why oh why does it have to run on MSSQL server?
Thats the most expensive database system available really and although
we
provide it for customers i would not personally trust our business data
on
it.
I am sure its perfectly OK but it puts me off looking any further at
Platypus.
I just don;t feel comfortable with that solution.
What about oracle?
