how about filing bugs at Corel or Adobe if their SVG import is broken? Obviously it is broken if it doesn't look the same as in Inkscape.
I sure could, but I have no Corel or Adobe. Despite I know how to make those changes, I have to pay somebody else to do them for me.
SVG is more and more both an exchange and a standard web-graphics format. Commercial vendors need to support SVG properly.
As an short-time alternative you may try the PDF format. At least the newer versions of Adobe Illustrator import PDF documents fine. I don't know about the drop-shadow/blur, though. This is probably rasterized by Inkscape at a certain resolution.
Is the PDF format fully scalable? I had no idea.

View only formats won't work. My client needs the logo in scalable format because it's to be used for printing in both small and large formats. I tried opening the logo with Corel and Illustrator. Mostly fine, but blur effect is lost. I can apply gaussian blur or something in any of those apps but will it work when I'm back to inkscape? I need advice about compatibility, otherwise I won't be able to use Inkscape professionally due to every people in this place use only Corel or Illustrator.
