What do you like best about the product?

It can be a little dry at times, and the EPEL could have more packages.

RHEL - Good For Security And Enterprise VM Management

  • May 20, 2025
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
In terms of security, all of the innovation Red Hat does with linux is very compelling. I like how it is a widely know and supported platform and you are able to use tools like Red Hat Satellite as a go-between for package management.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the cost per VM and that some of the tools like subscription-manager can be complicated. There can be some ramp-up time in learning the tools and feature.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is solving the problem of datacenter-wide or company wide deployment, easy VM provisioning and package management.
