My Journey with Red Hat Enterprise Linux: A User's Perspective

  • September 29, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I've been using Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) for a long time, and I love how reliable it is. It's like the rock that my critical applications stand on. RHEL sticks around for a long time, up to a whole decade, which means I get important updates and security fixes.
It's super safe too. They have this thing called SELinux that protects my system and is quick with security updates. If I ever run into trouble, Red Hat's support team is there to help.
RHEL works with all sorts of other software, grows with my needs, and they're big on open-source values. Managing it is a breeze with their subscription model. If you want a dependable, adaptable, and well-supported operating system, RHEL is the way to go.
What do you dislike about the product?
Well, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) has its pros, but it's not all sunshine. One thing that bugs some folks is the cost—it can be on the pricey side, especially if you're running a small operation. Also, RHEL tends to play it safe with updates. While that's good for stability, it means you might not always get the latest and greatest features right away. So, it's a trade-off: stability versus bleeding-edge stuff. Depends on what you need.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) solves real work issues for me. It's like a dependable tool that keeps my computer stable and secure. With RHEL's long support, I don't have to rush into updates. It also plays nicely with other software I use, making my work smoother. Though it can be a bit costly, the peace of mind and ease it provides are worth it
