Very good operating system for both servers and workstations but more geared to servers

  • November 05, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Redhat maintains an excellent software repository that is heavily scrutinized to ensure compatibility for users and systems administrators.As an operating system, their disk and volume management is on par with AIX and Solaris. Software installation is easily manageable. One area I definitely like is setting up Identity Management. RedHat have made implementing and managing extremely easy. One area that RedHat shines is dedicating their focus on reliability and security updates. This is extremely important for compliance. Their workstation offerings add alot of much needed windows display managers including those for systems that have limited resources. This is a plus as we use alot of thin client systems and RedHat workstation is definately suited for that task.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was a more enterprise class of virtualization (i.e KVM is still not on par with VMware and Solaris). More over their licensing schema is a bit unwieldy when it comes to running from a centralized on site server and setup is extremely cumbersome and unreliable. Also wish they would include more options for out of the box database systems as far as including more than just one flavor of MySQL, in this case MariaDB.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use a combination of Redhat servers and workstations for engineering and science related applications
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Redhat Enterprise linux is not for beginners. If you are coming from a Windows Systems side you will need more training on unix/linux operating systems to become an adequate systems administrator

if an entry of filesystem in fstab is there and physically that disk is removed there raises an issue.

Hats off to RedHat!

  • October 27, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The package quality, support, maintenance and updates, all give it the premium appeal that a linux distro deserves!
What do you dislike about the product?
It's too expensive for its features. This is definitely not meant for amateur use. You need well experienced in-house team alongside vendor support for it to work out well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The kind of quality and support that it has made me realize the importance it could have in managing my storage. So all my NFS drives are mounted and controlled over RHEL and it's been 2 years since I've been using it and I feel the decision was right indeed.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's one of the most robust linux distribution you'll come across. May go a little over budget, but reliability is guaranteed. Go for it! Good luck!

Best Linux Distro - Redhat

  • October 24, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The one thing I like the most about Redhat is its premium packages and subscription.
What do you dislike about the product?
Subscription is quite costly compared to similar distros like SUSE.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My company's active directory services are run over RedHat Enterprise Linux. It offers good support, updates and maintenance which is a must!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a reliable linux distribution with plenty of support and features and can afford all of it, then RHEL is the product for you!

Professional Linux System for Companies with support.

  • October 13, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I can use this operating system for my company, it is perfect for all my network needs, security and stability of my personal data on all PCs with Linux system. There are always updates of improvements in the system, access is unlimited for all users with a single payment, saving money with this function.
Firewall email and security service, with this I configure everything necessary for the stability and security of my system against attacks by viruses or hackers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Red Hat services are very expensive just for one service, having so many functions is difficult to configure everything.
More office programs are missing in this system.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use this system for network services from a server, I configure the security of my internal network with Firewall, VPN, DDoS attack, email, DNS service to speed up the loading of web pages, printer service, NAS and much more.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you know how to use Linux and need security and stability, Red Hat is perfect, although any Linux system is secure and stable, but Red Hat offers more benefits for network services and support.
