I love PostgreSQL, but...

It needs some work before it's enterprise ready. It's better than MySQL, but is missing some critical areas of functionality to really be considered an enterprise database.

I doesn't have the robustness and extensive tunability of Oracle (of course, nobody really matches Oracle for the sheer functionality and quality of the database). It lacks well integrated, well tested replication. It lacks failover clustering. And I think the security model could use a little work.

That said, it's a fantastic piece of softare. What it needs is more work, and some money from someone to fund development.
