Overall Satisfaction with Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)

Red Hat Enterprise Linux is the defacto-standard platform for new workloads running both on-premise and in multiple public clouds. We deploy both critical enterprise applications, as well as edge location workloads on RHEL.
  • Install & Configuration
  • Management and Automation
  • Community Contribution
  • Availability of newer versions of packages
  • Wider selection of packages
  • Automation of AD integration
  • Security
  • Stability
  • Manageability
  • We've more than doubled our Linux workload without increasing engineering staff.
  • We have migrated workloads from Windows, cutting resource requirements.
We selected RHEL because it is a supported platform from our ISVs, because of the Enterprise-level support, and because of the long history of Open Source involved and community contributions.

Yes

Would you buy Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) again?

Yes

RHEL is well-suited for applications where stability and security are critical, as well as where the ability to scale it and still manage efficiently is crucial.

It is less well-suited for environments where there are individual, specific requirements, where newer versions of libraries and applications are required, and particularly in migration of legacy .Net applications.
