Best of its kind
What do you like best about the product?
Every day I log on to the Linux server to accomplish my tasks, which consists of making a report and getting direct access to the Internet. RedHat Linux is widely used among many of my clients, so it helps me to improve my services. We have configured authentication to a Windows Active Directory, which is useful in a mixed environment. The guide and platform are very good. The possibility of piracy of this operating system is bad (if used for bad purposes), but piracy is what other Red Hat and Fedora derivatives are for.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's probably good for network administrators aimed for greater protection, but it is able to appear as a daunting mission for newcomers. I guess the price is usually an unpleasant thing, as Redhat is expected to compete with many unbuttoned distributions. The PC doesn't start anymore. It's not a nuisance, but it's not worth it that organizations implementing RHEL also require specific RHEL certifications before allowing you to touch the hardware, even if you're familiar with different distributions. There's nothing I don't like about Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used it as a server in my organization. With the general report it has been very easy compared to others, easily scalable, I use RHEL for every server facet need, for virtualization, Linux shell scripts and other servers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If this is a reliable support for Linux systems, you can choose between RHEL and Suse.
Permite configurar servidores con multitud servicios que con otro fabricantes serían mas caros

Permite realizar virtualización, incluso de otros sistemas operativos. Proporciona una optimización para procesadores multinúcleo. Incluye herramientas de desarrollo y rendimiento.
What do you dislike about the product?
La idea que tienen de vender sus certificaciones para poder ser partner y ofrecer un mejor servicio. Aún es necesario disponer de técnicos muy especializados para poder tener un buen soporte para instalar, mantener y actualizar el sistema operativo.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Gran mejora en la utilización de los recursos hardware existentes en la empresa, al permitir una virtualización de sistemas mejorada.

Linux, but with (paid) support!
What do you like best about the product?
RHEL is just the same open-source Linux you can get from everybody else, but it comes with support. That's very important for companies running mission critical systems that need someone to talk to whenever a problem arises, and they will do their best to find a solution as soon as possible.
RHEL also ensures that the software it bundles is tested and supported, so everything is usually working as you would expect. Their long term support usually lasts more than 10 years, so you really don't have to rush upgrading to the next version, and you'll have plenty of time to plan for the updates.

What do you dislike about the product?
Having used Debian, or Debian-based distributions like Ubuntu for the most time, I sometimes find RHEL not so confortable when compared to these other Linux distributions. Things like the package manager (dnf), location of configuration files, or internal system utilities are, in my opinion, more cumbersome than the Debian counterpart.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use RHEL in some of our servers, where we host our customers' applications. We need a stable, supported environment, where fault-tolerance and high-availability are a must.
Between all the big commercial Linux vendors (SLES, Oracle, etc) we chose RedHat because it was, for us, the most popular one and also it was offered by one of our clould providers.
We don't use RHEL in our workstations, though.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Since 2016, there exists a "no-cost" licensed RHEL version. It comes with no support, of course, and you can't use it for commercial purposes, but at least it is a way for you to evaluate the product and decide if it fits your needs before paying for it. If paid support is not that important for you, be aware that some open-source, free of charge, derivative distributions, also exist.

Creación de servidores
Una de las mejores distribuciones de Linux para empresas
What do you like best about the product?
Redhat, es una de las mejores soluciones operativas para empresas más robustas disponibles en la actualidad en el mercado. Junto con la capacidad de mejorar la seguridad del sistema operativo a la configuración recomendada por los programas en la actualidad. La configuración de seguridad recomendada de CIS, es lo que fortalece aún más su postura de seguridad y privacidad.
What do you dislike about the product?
Linux tienes muchísimas opciones y configuraciones, en el cuál si se tiene muy poca experiencia es de demasiada dificultad. Al hacerlo bien puede ser de prueba y error si se esta aprendiendo y la comunidad, no aporta consejos como la de Windows, eso significa que hay muchos recursos disponibles, así como soporte de diferentes proveedores. Para mejorar lo anteriormente dicho, es recomendable suscribirse a un canal de soporte.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Se puede configurar importantes plantillas CIS y se puede configurar la seguridad de linux si el software lo permite.
