Overall Satisfaction with Windows Server

Windows Server is being used at our organization as our main DNS, DHCP, AD, print and file servers. Everything we do is handled by Windows Servers. It allows us to manage users, security and push out policy as needed. Windows Server has been very stable on the latest versions which means productivity and efficiency for us.
  • security
  • file print
  • file storage

  • Group policy
  • active directory
  • file sharing
  • no negatives
Linux is great, but support is harder to come by. You also need to pay linux admins more as it is a much smaller group of people that can support it. Windows is the industry standard with the most support available. Going with another platform just didn't seem to make sense for our business.

Windows Server is best for medium to large businesses where security is a top concern. Having the ability to use group policy for security, mapped drives, printers and automation is key. It is also easy to manage users using active directory. Exchange integration with Azure is also great.
