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.
