What do you like best about the product?
The stability, flexibility and enterpirse support that linux, particularly RHEL provides is second to none compared to alterntives like Ubuntu or Windows.

As a desktop OS, GNOME is not great, and the support for enterprise productivity apps is not amazing either. Also graphical support with kernel modifications, and the upgrade paths can be simplified

Having a stable, low overhead operating system for a full fleded server OS

An OS For the Enterprise

  • May 08, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Two of the things I like most about RHEL is how well applications run on it. Unlike Windows, where install files are placed everywhere, with RHEL it is all contained in its directories. This makes it very easy to upgrade the OS or hte app, without worrying if the updates haver overwritten system files.
What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest issue I have with RHEL rrevolves around newbies that have grown up in a Windows worldm- ther learning curve can be steep while they learn the CLO.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is allowing us to use open source software that we would not be able to use on a Windows platform, or have to make do with products that only give us some of the fwatures we want.

Gets the job done.

What do you like best about the product?
With 10+ years of adminstrating RHEL systems, it's what I'm most familiar with. I do very much enjoy being a Linux admin and being able to solve problems and create solutions for my developers. My team really should work to take advantage of the some of the new features of RHEL.
What do you dislike about the product?
The EPEL repository has been a challenge with some broken dependencies where some of the applications from there won't work properly. However, we use custom mirrors for security purposes, so it could be an issue with our repos, and not Red Hat itself. When I looked a year or so ago, I did not see a RHEL9 intro course as an option to familiarize myself with the new features as there was for RHEL8. That would have been very helpful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Consistent, familiar OS across multiple environments.
