It's not a detailed comparison but this short blog post, published yesterday, from a couple of Defra employees (UK Government Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs) indicates that Defra recognises the value in using and supporting both QGIS and ArcGIS side by side.
https://defradigital.blog.gov.uk/2017/02/20/the-right-gis-tool-for-the-job/ The really interesting revelation for me was that Defra is now officially supporting QGIS. Not so long ago I supported a Defra employee with QGIS and he had to jump through all sorts of hoops to get it installed on his work machine. Budgets in UK government are tighter than ever, and tighter than most at Defra. I can only see this journey continuing in one direction. Rich
