Overall Satisfaction with Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
All our machines and servers are established as RHEL. It is being extensively used by our company as an alternative to CENTOS (which is basically an unsupported version of the same) mainly because of the stability that it provides and the amazing customer service that Red Hat has to offer its customers.
- Stability
- Cleaner Software updates
- Robust
- The license is expensive
- 24/7 uptime
- No restarts between updates
CENTOS is the unsupported version of RHEL. There is Ubuntu, which in the current years has become very stable, but the thing is it's been funded by tech giants (I am not going to name them here) and that is the reason they tend to collect a lot of information from the linux system, which they have been using for a lot of their own research purposes.
SLES : SUSE enterprise system is a good alternative, but it's a European brand and many of its tools sometimes just do not pair well compared to Ubuntu and CENTOS.
