Free Enterprise grade Linux distribution

Becouse openSUSE Leap shares the source with Suse Enterprise Linux you get a stable system to work and game on
Becouse openSUSE Leap shares the source with Suse Enterprise Linux you get a stable system to work and game on
What do you dislike about the product?
Because openSUSE Leap is built to be as stable as possible Leap sometimes doesn't have the newest version of some programs available and can be a bit hard to install.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Leap to hobby develop games with the Unreal Engine 5.
For work, I use leap to configure networks and network devices.
By using Leap I get a stable system and if I need help there is a big community that happily will help me out.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're a user that wants a stable system go with Leap, but if you want the bleeding edge software try out openSUSE Tumbleweed
Good approximation to the SUSE version Enterprise with good performance
What do you like best about the product?
It is a distribution with good stability since it is based on the Linux Enterprise version that tries to offer a solution that allows the deployment of applications and servers. System maintenance and package upgrades are also made easier by using YAST.
What do you dislike about the product?
Using the distribution and configuring it requires more advanced technical skills than a normal user who wants to test the distribution, but doesn't know as much about the ecosystem of tools offered by SUSE, might have.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One of the main features it offers developers is the use of container-based applications that have become an essential component of cloud computing. At this point, openSUSE Leap aims to be a competent solution in this area, where security updates, the presence of container platforms and orchestrators such as Docker Kubernetes stand out, as well as the possibility of being able to easily migrate a server, a virtual machine or a container.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
openSUSE Leap can be used as a staging environment to run workloads that can later be ported to SUSE Linux Enterprise Linux.
best business class Linux without the price tag.
What do you like best about the product?
Stable, all drivers always work. had it installed on more than 100 different systems, never had a problem.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing, there is literally nothing i don't like.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Great Linux distro.
I really love openSUSE but why can't it change from a c5a.4xlarge (for example) to another like c6g.4xlarge? I can't give you the five stars only for this.
Thank you for your great work
A fun distribution that seems to have lost its way
What do you like best about the product?
OpenSuSE keeps up with the cutting edge of software, providing multiple versions and paths for whether or not you want reasonably stable or absolute bleeding edge. It's pretty easy to get and build software on the platform, and works well as a desktop O/S for a laptop. It also runs well on older hardware that may not be up to the challenge of more demanding operating systems.
What do you dislike about the product?
Between all the M&A activity that parent/sponsor company SuSE has been through over the past decade or two, I think OpenSuSE has gotten lost in the shuffle. It's hard for a company that has to make money to figure out how to fund these things, anyway, and provide the resources for a freely-available and community-supported platform, and I don't think SuSE has done the best job of making this happen in a way that benefits the community using it. Also, the short lifecycle of the releases - about 18 months - can be challenging to keep up with - it's really easy to get 4 years down the road on a version and realize you can no longer get software and updates because you're two major versions back with no support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I want to run Linux on my laptop rather than Windows so that I can more efficiently manage a large Linux and UNIX landscape.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be prepared to keep up with the quick pace of updates and major version changes.
Standard linux distro
What do you like best about the product?
I like that openSUSE offers both GNOME and KDE environments. Unlike many Linux distros, it's also pretty accessible to the average user- the graphic-based interface makes learning it a simple affair. With Gnome, though, you also have the option of keyboard-based action, which can be significantly faster for some users. Also, it's pretty cool looking.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's only available in 64-bit these days. Sometimes I like to breathe new life into old laptops that come my way before passing them along, and I often can't use this distro for lack of hardware compatibility and support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
OpenSUSE provides a free desktop operating system. As such, it solves a number of business needs from Internet access to email to word processing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There are so many Linux distros that meet just about every use case. Shop around until you find the one you want. openSUSE is a great choice because it's super flexible and actively developed.
Most stable, Free & BeautifulLinux Distro
What do you like best about the product?
Rolling Release, Easy to Use, Easy to Install and Extremely easy to Install third-party apps.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing in particular. However some time I face challenges in installing multimedia support. By default distro also comes with lots of crap.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Saved lots of Money by Deploying openSUSE. Earlier company was burning money Windows & antivirus.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
IF looking for secure, stable, free and beautiful alternative of Windows Please gie a try to OpenSuse.
