Uptodate secure OS for HPC

Reviewed on Apr 21, 2023

Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?

Blazingly uptodate with a decent community support having a lot of much awaited features and unbelievably customer friendly. The OS distribution is maintained with high quality standards.

What do you dislike about the product?

Limited hardware options and no backupgrades for older hardwares. The packages are also limited so the development curve becomes a little steep towards scale, you need to be a hawkeye to avoid security updates.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Updates, updates and updates. To manage these updates and security patches was a nightmare early but with Opensuse tumbleweed it's a boon with a good UX and clarity in documentation to deploy HPC.

What do you like best about the product?

One of the most beneficial aspects of openSUSE Tumbleweed is its rolling release model, which allows users to always have the most up-to-date software packages and security patches without needing to reinstall when a new version is released. This can be particularly useful for developers and advanced users who want to stay on the cutting edge of technology and have the latest tools and features at their disposal.

Another beneficial aspect of openSUSE Tumbleweed is its strong focus on user choice and customization. The operating system includes a wide range of software packages and tools that can be easily installed and configured to meet the user's needs. Additionally, the system consists of several customization options and settings that can be adjusted to suit the user's preferences.

Overall, OpenSUSE Tumbleweed is a highly flexible and customizable operating system that is well-suited for advanced users and developers who want to stay up-to-date with the latest technology and have the ability to tailor their system to their specific needs and preferences.

What do you dislike about the product?

openSUSE Tumbleweed may not be the best choice for users who value stability and predictability above all else, or for those who are using the operating system in a production environment where downtime or system instability is not acceptable. It is generally recommended for advanced users and developers who are comfortable with the potential for occasional issues that can arise from using pre-release software.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

I needed an operating system that is highly flexible and customizable, allowing users to tailor the plan to their specific needs and preferences. Tumbleweed includes a wide range of software packages and tools that can be easily installed and configured, as well as several customization options and settings that can be adjusted to suit the user's preferences.
