Overall Satisfaction with Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
It is the most reliable OS out there. We replaced all our Windows systems with RHEL and have few crashes or tech issues. It runs all of our servers now and we are very happy. We deployed it corp wide and it was an easy setup. It has cut my tech support requirements by at least half due to its reliability.
- Runs our high use servers flawlessly
- It is easy to repair
- It grows stronger every day
- It's very adaptable and functional
- My techs love it for its speed and reliability
- More documentation
- More programs that run on it
- Better GUI for desktop users
- It's all positive. Excellent ROI as it is so trouble-free and reliable.
- It cuts my tech costs dramatically and is easy to update.
Beats them all for reliability, security, ease of use and setup, as well as patching. It has fewer support problems and is easily serviced. Support is easy to find and quite helpful. Windows crashed all the time and Azure was at times spotty.

Evaluating Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and Competitors
Yes - Windows Server. Replaced because it is inherently unstable and a pain to work on. Windows servers crash regularly but our RHEL systems have been running trouble free for years. We replaced due to poor stability and security issues. Also, being so reliable, RHEL has reduced my internal tech costs.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) Implementation
- Implemented in-house
Change management was a big part of the implementation and was well-handled - It runs faster and more reliably. These things have a major impact on our Change Mgt and RHEL handles them just great. Learned that change mgt is NOT a difficult thing to institute and control with this easy to us, very functional and reliable OS...
