What do you like best about OpenIndiana?
OpenIndiana really soars at its highest. It provided me with confidence about my server and weeks of running with no issues. The number of freely available OSSs is enormous, which makes it just great. It is like having a giant toolbox in terms of customization that is waiting at your beck and call.

What do you dislike about OpenIndiana?
The availability of the software becomes a two-edged weapon. Quite often one gets older versions of packages or if one is lucky has to compile them manually, which transforms simple installations into wild hunts. It is like searching for the right tool in an old dusty attic full of clutter and stuff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes new releases of the system aren't on a regular schedule but that can work itself out if more admins were to adopt this software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
