Overall Satisfaction with Windows Server

The Windows platform is used by Active Directory, application, web and database servers.
  • Active Directory: easy to use and manage. Integration available on my systems.
  • I think the product has evolved a lot and I'm satisfied with its features.
  • Better user management with Active Directory.
I work with Windows and Linux systems but most of times the decision is based on the customer requirements.
For LDAP / directory services I would recommend Windows, but for other services the decision relies on the compatibility between the OS and the desired service.
Windows Server works fine. I would keep using it unless I'm able to port it to Linux.
Usually Linux is a better option, but it depends on what you need to do and what kind of expertise you have.
