Red Hat Review
What do you like best about the product?
Redhat Linux is widely supported by the application manufacturers, so those applications could be installed easily and documentation is available from the vendor sites.

I do not dislike it, very user friendly. Could have more apps available. Linux drivers are terrible at best, open source software not very compatible with many peripherals.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Built in support, Red Hat Enterprise Linux with Smart Virtualization cannot go wrong with virtual server

The cost of support and the licensing requirement is frustrating and can be expensive.

RHEL Basic end user review
What do you like best about the product?
I Work with this device somewhat indirectly as the application I manage is hosted on a Linux server. I like the ability to be able to configure some items via GUI and CLI. It's just a preferred method that myself and other colleagues are more familiar with.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing that I can think of, I work with these devices indirectly and they seem to be more reliable than if I was using a windows device.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to utilize the Linux servers in a universal forwarder configuration across our network.

RedHat Linux
What do you like best about the product?
The speed and the user friendly environment helps finishing jobs early.
What do you dislike about the product?
The RedHat Linux has various compatibility issues with R and python versions which should be taken care of.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using it for NGS.
Solid foundation for enterprise apps
What do you like best about the product?
The OS is extremely stable.
Reboots are pretty rare, usually necessitated by running applications or the JVM (no fault of the OS really).
We have setup authentication against a windows Active Directory, which is convenient in a mixed environment.

What do you dislike about the product?
Not much to dislike about RedHat. Generally (for all Linux) the command-line centric interface is a double edge sword, powerful yet potentially difficult for the novice SysAdmin.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We just need a rock solid OS to run enterprise applications, mostly within a Java VM.
Red Hat does this very well. It just works and works, which is what we need in an OS.

What do you like best about the product?
The Operating system is widely used in every aspect of IT. Some aspects in my organizations are PABX installation (Asterick, Elastic, FreePBX). Installation steps are quite easy. The Operating system is easy to deploy and extremely fast. Also you can configure any settings either on a GUI or CLI or the terminal.

It is not user friendly as compared to windows OS versions. Sometimes might need to be worked on the CLI rather than the GUI.

For Implementation of solid PABX systems such as Elastic and asterisk Free PABX, I would these recommend Linux Operating systems
Awesome and robust
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the focus on containerization. A plus is definetely security and the development speed. Also the registration process is easy compared to e.g. SUSE especially for containers.
Red Hat is going the right way with the focus on containerization and scalability.

What do you dislike about the product?
The repo policy is sometimes confusing and to get up to date programs can be annoying. For example the php shipped is outdated and you have to extra repositories to get an up to date version.

We run tests for deployments of our Software (owncloud) and RedHat is the go to vendor when it comes to scalability, trust and reliability. It is used widely through our customer base and is well known and trustworthy all the way.
