Suse Enterprise Server for SAP

  • March 25, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Quick and easy-to-use support channels and well organized knowledge base.
What do you dislike about the product?
The package manager is not such intuitive as in other linux products. I`ve used to use yum and zipper or yast are not such organized.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm using SLES for SAP environment, mostly used for HANA databases. I`m using both x86 and Power versions, as mine HANA systems utilize Power ability to address terabytes of RAM.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
SLES is a powerful platform for business applications like SAP, and it was the first certified platform for SAP S/4 and HANA. I strongly recommend to use this product as solid foundation for newly build on-prem SAP systems.

R&R!: Robust 'n' Reliable!

  • March 22, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
SuSE is a well known actor inside Linux world, but I think is heavily underrated when it comes to "Enterprise Linux".
Since I began working with its products I could discover the great work and well-doing they put in its products.

Robustness and reliability are at the very core of SLES.
Installation is also a good point with options to fit any requirement.
Open-source solution with a huge community that helps to find solutions.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you come from another distribution, maybe zypper, despite being well superior to others, can be a bit confusing.
Also, for advanced utils, documentation could be a bit better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly used for SAP in physical servers with massive amount of CPu and RAM

A Linux distribution for the enterprise

  • March 15, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server is just that, a Linux server built for the enterprise. There's a good balance of features from latest code but with the experienced security from past releases.
What do you dislike about the product?
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server is perhaps not marketed as well as it should be so it suffers a bit from lack of recognition which in turn affects adoption and third-party support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server provides a security-hardened Linux operating system that is well supported, both by SUSE and their growing user community.

I've been using SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for several years now on X86_64 and aarch64, every new release or service pack release just works! Currently running SLES 15 SP5.

Reliable enterprise distribution

  • March 14, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
When running our SAP workloads, we found suse a reliable partner who offers a good enterprise distrubution at reasonable rates. Suse excells when it comes to useability, support and documentation
What do you dislike about the product?
From time to time, certain niche topics aren't documented and it might take a longer while untill certain packages are included into the suse repositorys
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We switched from AIX to SLES for running our SAP application servers and we've always used suse for running our hana workloads. AIX to suse was from a cost savings perspective.

a distribution for everyday usage

  • March 14, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is the distribution I know best and I like the whole services/products around SLES. Like if I need special software that is not part of the normal repositories and it is even not found in the packagehub I can build it easily by my own using the open build service and submit it to SLES.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it takes too long to get newest software versions, but this was more a problem with SLES 12 and later.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SLES is my default solution for customers searching for a linux distribution. Database server, fileserver, webserver.. We are using salt to automate everything, and that fits best with SLES.

I've been using SLES for >7 years, never had any problems with it

  • November 16, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's a stable enterprise environment.
The support is easy to reach, fast and helpfull.
Patches are released regulary and very fast.
When installing SAP products, we feel they beat the competitors.
There's a great community behind suse.
There's ample documentation available.

Sometimes the documentation can be a work in progress. I've noticed this with some autoyast documentation that is sometimes a tad bit outdated.

We run our complete SAP landscape on suse linux enterprise server, suse is a preferred SAP partner and it shows!
If you follow SAP and SUSE's manual, the installation of SAP products is a breeze.

Make sure to read up on all versions, modules and extensions so you buy exactly the package you need... If managing bigger clusters, take a look at suse manager aswell!
