Red Hat is a prominent contributor to the Linux kernel and associated technologies.

  • June 10, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
In the open source community at large, Red Hat is a prominent contributor to the Linux kernel and associated technologies.



Like Fedora and other Linux variants, it's also an open-source operating system.

It is more dependable than Fedora, however it is not as cutting-edge.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a premium version that you'll require if you're running critical production equipment and need RedHat support.


You must pay a licence fee to RedHat in order to use Redhat Enterprise Linux.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A Red Hat membership gives you access to Red Hat's most up-to-date enterprise-ready software, as well as expert knowledge, product security, and technical support from trusted engineers who specialise in open source software development.



Take advantage of the most current features and improvements while avoiding bugs that were fixed in previous versions.




Contains the most recent stable versions of development compiler toolsets and development tools.

One of the best OS experiences!

  • July 20, 2020

What do you like best about the product?
Red Hat Enterprise Linux gives a really great experience if one wants to work at the administrator level, controlling the operating system very closely. Many other operating systems provide great user experience but not many let you control them at the level that this operating system lets, at the administrator level, allows you configure so much.

One of the best thing is the support from the Red hat Community that you get, it compensates for so many other factors, one for example price.

If one wants to learn about the various OS features while being able to control so much of the OS, this is a great recommendation.

Kudos for Red Hat Community!
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing that can be considered a dislike could be the price. Apart from the price, there are some softwares that it does not support. Linux is a kernel whereas Red Hat is a distribution of that Kernel, so the size is comparatively large and thus compatibility is an issue in some cases. But there are other factors which nullify all of this.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have always had interest in Operating Systems and Linux kernels have always been better experiences for me than Windows OS or Mac OS having used both of them also.
Red Hat distribution provides much better security and salient networking features if I'm experimenting something, like network tunnels for example.

Being a programmer, it helps so much in understanding how the OS implements features and how operations are performed. Working with the help of Red Hat commands is a cherry on top, undoubtedly.

GUI is the only the setback in this environment, but when it comes to security for the environment, it has the upper hand on its competitors.

RedHat Enterprise Linux on education area

  • October 20, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I feel very confident to select Red Hat Enterprise Linux in my projects, in my opinion it is one of the most stable Linux distribution available on the marketing, the support also is a strong point they are very focused to solve the problem in the less time possible, but the key point to select Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) it is the support compatibility with another vendors in Hardware and Software area, this is very important to have the all solutions supported in a single project.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) haven't many points that I dislike, unless the cost, because the Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) in my opinion it is the most expensive Linux operations system distribution available on the market, I understand that it is leader, but in some case I was forced to select a non commercial distribution CentOS that it is very close to Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Some time ago, I was adept of Debian distribution, but I had some problem with HBA drivers and storage support, I solved this problem when I adopted the Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) to this servers, and I really liked to move from Debian to Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) based on the stability, support from hardware manufactures and compatibility matrix.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think that Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) is on the right path, I am just concerned about the effective costs, because in some cases I need to select a product with no support because the Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) doesn't fit on the budget.
