RHEL is known for its rock-solid stability and reliability.

  • November 24, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
RHEL's ease of access and intuitive interface make it a joy to use. No more daily reboots for pesky Windows updates! The terminal access grants seamless communication with servers, while the unwavering stability is truly remarkable. As a database administrator, I've grown fond of RHEL over the years. Mastering it opens doors to understanding other Nix operating systems.RHEL’s vast array of features stands as a cornerstone of its strength and versatility
What do you dislike about the product?
The intricacies of RHEL's package dependency management, while ensuring system stability, can pose a challenge for novice users. A more streamlined approach, akin to Windows' automated dependency resolution, would alleviate user frustration and enhance the installation process.

RHEL's graphical user interface, while functional, falls short of the polish and intuitiveness of its Windows counterpart. A modernized GUI would bridge the gap between Windows and RHEL, attracting a broader user base.

The complexities of RHEL's filesystem administration can be daunting for beginners accustomed to Windows' straightforward file management. A simplified filesystem administration system would empower users to navigate their files and folders with ease, enhancing their overall experience.

In essence, RHEL's strengths lie in its robustness and reliability. However, embracing user-friendly enhancements in package dependency management, graphical interface, and filesystem administration would broaden RHEL's appeal, making it a compelling choice for a wider range of users, including beginners and those transitioning from Windows.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is used for hosting our databases and for sure it is more poerful and secure than its windows counterpart.

Best Linux distribution for Enterprise servers

  • November 11, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Red Hat enterprise Linux is best choice for highly critical workloads as it provide stability, long term support(upto 10 years) so that you have enough time for migration to new releases and last but not the least is its Enterprise 24x7 support which prevent your SLAs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Red hat enterprise Linux main focus is stability so you miss out the new software updates. Another important factor is cost, you have the open source CentOS distribution available for free but that doesn't come with any support so it is good for small businesses where you are not running any critical workloads.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We want our production Linux server to be available 24x7 and with maximum uptime for data transfer between onprem to cloud and vice versa and RHEL is helping us in running out databrokers in an efficient way which transfers the data. It provides us data backups across multiple environment which will help us in Disaster recovery scenarios.

Red hat Enterprise is used as a base OS for hypervisors, we usually use VMware esxi on top of this to create multiple virtual machines for our cloud. Being highly stable it provides reliability as well as good support for our system overall.
