Default Vertical Card Compasses vs GPS Compass Display

How well do the vertical card compasses work and hold up in real world
conditions ( constantly circling, sticking etc) ?

Some of the GPS's have a compass display. Is that a viable alternative
to a vertical card compass (still having regular old style compass as
backup) ?

I would welcome replies from those with experience with either or
both.

Stan
