What do you like best about the product?
RHEL is a the best solution for real-life enterprise application. Its stability and security are unmatched, making it my go-to for mission-critical systems. I's really easy to use once you’re familiar with RPM-based ecosystems—tools like YUM/DNF simplify package management. The subscription model ensures timely updates and access to Red Hat’s stellar support, which has saved me hours of troubleshooting. Integration with enterprise tools (think OpenShift, Ansible, or cloud platforms) feels seamless, and SELinux’s granular security controls are a lifesaver. For daily use, it’s reliable enough that I rarely second-guess its performance.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve is steep for people new to RPM distributions. While powerful, SELinux and firewall-cmd can feel overwhelming without Red Hat’s training. The UI feels dated compared to Ubuntu or Fedora, which might deter people used to polished GUIs. Licensing costs add up quickly for small businesses, and the subscription activation process is clunky—I’ve lost time untangling portal issues. Out-of-the-box software is often older for stability’s sake, which means manually adding repos for newer apps.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mostly the integration with Ansible and containerized platforms.

What do you like best about the product?
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) is an outstanding operating system for enterprise environments, delivering unmatched stability, security, and long-term support. Its robust performance makes it ideal for mission-critical workloads, and the seamless integration with Red Hat’s ecosystem ensures reliability at every level. The extensive documentation, excellent customer support, and frequent security updates provide peace of mind for IT teams.

What do you dislike about the product?
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) is a fantastic choice for businesses that need a stable, secure, and well-supported operating system. It offers top-notch reliability, excellent security features, and seamless integration with enterprise tools. However, one downside is the cost—RHEL’s subscription model can be expensive, especially for small businesses or individuals who need enterprise features but have budget constraints. Additionally, some users may find the strict licensing and lack of access to the latest cutting-edge software a bit limiting compared to community-driven distributions like Fedora or Ubuntu. Despite this, RHEL remains a solid investment for companies that prioritize long-term stability and professional support.
