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.

What do you like best about the product?
the flexiblity and open source that is natively built in the kernel with a robust support of the operating system and its readiness to automate at an enterprise scale

not really anything major but it would be great if we have a more robust workstation ecosystem like how we have on the Windows side

RHEL is giving the platform to host the most mission critical applications that matters to our organization and additional giving us the capabilities to automate all our configguration and application deployments with Ansible Automation platform

The support and stability are second to none. Anything that needs to be deployed can and should be deployed with RHEL.

While it is excellent as an enterprise offering, the subscription holds me back from fully changing in personal networks.

Gets the job done.

  • May 07, 2024

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.

RHEL is a next level downstream experience.

  • May 07, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I believe RHEL is one of the most premier Linux flavors out there due to the stability of their downstream. They also have next generation technology that is vertically supported.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only issue I have is RHEL is the scaling costs when it comes to multiple workstations. Personally, I think RHEL Desktop should be considerably less or allow for customers to manage their own assets. Similar to the developer license of 10, their should be some autonomy with enterprises managing their own IT departments. Such as a "use at your own risk" with customer's taking on the risk of no support but not losing the stability that Red Hat provides through security upgrades/Package management.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The stability of the RHEL flavor is what allows us to thrive at our infrastructure level. We currently use CentOS as we manage our own desktops but use RHEL for our system server needs.
