Our business has been using Ingres since 1990 and still do.
It is a top quality product and we have followed it as it changed to an open source product.
http://www.ingres.com/downloads/prod-comm-download.php

What keeps Ingres in favour here ( amounst the other developers ), for good or bad, is QBF and Vision.
I favour Postgres because of psql and its ease of use in Bash scripts.
I moved to Postgres originally because I the source was available to cross compile libpq to OS9.

Hope this helps.
