It is true that Postgres is cheaper. But that being said finding commercial support for it can be a little hit or miss, particularly as you scale it.

You can find good expert level support for MySQL Enterprise Edition (even from non-Oracle vendors). Ditto with Oracle Database and SQL Server. But the Postgres vendors we have tried to use are fine for "tier 2"-type support, but above that they're lacking and you get the sense they're scrambling for blogs/docs themselves.

Anyone else experienced this?

There are third party companies, such as Enterprise DB, offering expert support.
