Overall Satisfaction with Debian OS
We have several instances of Debian running in our environment ranging from Debian 9 to Debian 11. It is lightweight and very stable. Because it's so lightweight, we have no troubles running both containers or full VMs for each application we use with it. We use Debian to run media software, security software, network management software, and computer/user support software.
- Lightweight to make hardware resources stretch far
- Stable. You basically have to be trying to break it to break it.
- Versatile. Because it is so lightweight and stable, many, many pieces of software are built around it.
- At first, learning how to use the command line interface can be difficult. Just takes some time to learn.
- Setting up a minimal base Debian install to be an every day use desktop style OS takes time to learn and do effectively.
- Versatilitiy
- Stability
- Lightweight
- Due to it's low resource requirement, we are able to run more applications on less physical hardware
- Because of it's versatility, we are able to learn Debian well and run our applications off of the same base operating system. That saves time and expertise requirements.
Debian is the most widely used operating system in our environment due to being how lightweight, stable, and versatile it is.
