Both have a great presence in the marketplace, and both are provided by the largest players in the swimming pool industry--Hayward (Goldline) and (Jandy) Pentair. There are others as well like Resilience, Auto-Pilot, Prozone Combo Salt/ Ozone, others. Some use higher levels of salt which has been causing corrosion and also metal bonding/fusion. What I would recommend is if you purchase any salt system, also purchase an Ozonator (preferably a VUV Very Ultra Violet, not a Corona Discharge System). The Ozone does much of the work that the chlorine normally does. By using ozone, you reduce the amount of chlorine required, and most often you can turn the Jandy or Goldline outputs much lower prolonging their life cycle.
Pentair offers everything you will need for the smallest of pools and hot tubs to larger pools. They are most noted for their pool pumps and filters, which are a necessity for any pool.

In ground pools generally will last longer due to the fact that they will not experience wear-and-tear from the outside, since they are underground. In addition, free standing pools can look very unattractive when the sides become dirty.
Fiberglass pools are less susceptible to having problems with the finish if your water chemistry is off. They do tend to have some problems with warping that you won't have with a cement pool. The fiberglass liner is usually cheaper also.
It could be fatal.
There are a couple of things that you can try to help your Barracuda cleaning system for pools to stop sticking on the steps. You can try using a large wheel deflector, or you can the spur bumper fin.
No, they are usually in-ground. Many prefer fiberglass for it's lower cost, easier maintenance, and better algae control.
The first salt pools were made in the 1930's though not very successful. It wasn't until 1959 a better system was made, and 1998 was the first with an enclosed cell and 2001 before a few states health departments approved their use.
