Best Operating System for mission critical operations
What do you like best about the product?
I use several Operating Systems for my server's needs, but only REL for the mission critical operations such as running databases, monitoring services, storage services and others.
What do you dislike about the product?
If ever needed the paid support can be pricey for small business. The twin brother CentOS is the case for these small clients
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The stability that this Operating System offers is the primary benefit, and along with it we're able to solve most of the problems that depend on this solution.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
An Operating System that is both stable and you can trust. Red Hat does a great job on this System and on the products that you can use along with it.

RHEL
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, stability, scalability, management.

There's really not much to dislike. I've been using RHEL since 3.x and have been very happy with it. It's continued to improve and is still our platform of choice for anything we run on linux.

Databases, web sites, security, enterprise applications, development platform, ldap, cas, portals.
Red Hat is still the "big boy" in Linux for enterprise.
What do you like best about the product?
A very stable and wide supported Linux distro, not only by Red Hat itself, I mean, there is a big list of companies that main business is support RHEL and is the main Linux for some enterprise software solutions like SAP.
What do you dislike about the product?
For the initial setup inside a company (Red Hat satellite, accounts, network services, etc) can be complicated if your staff don't have enough experience, or expensive if your consultants don't have the right technical skill.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Is the main OS for all the infrastructure (cloud and virtualized) for his stability, the benefits are mostly related to fiability and security (after hardening).
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Check the background and experience of your consultants, and for internal staff try to select people with enough experience and pay them well.
Linux as Operating System
What do you like best about the product?
Linux as Operating System is really good. Your computer boots up very soon and overall you get a good feeling ( as compared to Windows) Linux doesn't ask to restart your system for updates, whereas, Windows does. Even the newer versions of Windows does!
Linux doesn't need an antivirus, whereas Windows does! (at least the older versions of Windows require Antivirus) Overall, I recommend Linux to Windows!

What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing I dislike about Linux. I like everything about Linux.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were given Linux OS already installed in our Laptops for security purposes to protect company's data! Like I said, it's more secure than Windows!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Very very strong and useful, especially if you want to save time :)
red hat user since 2007
What do you like best about the product?
I like how the commands haven't changed much in decades, while the user interface has improved.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of market share. More people need to know about it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've created my own scripts with ease to speed up my work. Remote accesses such as SSH make it easy to troubleshoot servers remotely. using the up key to toggle through my command history is a fast way to handle repetitive tasks.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's not hard. Get yourself a book from the library like I did. then you'll see it's as easy as anything else.

What do you like best about the product?
RedHat is for me the best enterprise solution Linux Based actually on the market. It's fast, secure and with an excellent live support. It was one of the first Linux distribution to use a new way to compress packages
called rpm.
It is stable, have a nice GUI and is very fast.

What do you dislike about the product?
This Linux distribution is very expensive and I would not recommend it to small businesses company with limited budgets. It's not very user-friendly for first time Linux user. Compatibility with others Operanting System could be better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use RHEL for every server-side necessity, for virtualization, linux shell scripting, and so on. We also use scripting for schedule our daily backup and some auto-startup activity. The Database activity is also well organized with RHEL.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
As i said before, this Linux distribution is expensive and I would recommend it only if you need RHEL support, but for small company with limited budgets i wouldn't recommend it.
