What business focused systems is this _not_ true for? Doubly so for such systems that encourage non-developer users to customize the database schema?
Not saying that's always a great choice, but they're far from the only ones to have made it, enterprise customers love to buy it, and Salesforce is actually one of the better ones I've seen to deal with from a technical perspective. There is _far, far_ worse out there. Most of this comes down to a business and design problem... your entire first paragraph reads as a broken process that no system is going to fix.
