"Cost-Effective and Reliable Linux Solution"
What do you like best about Oracle Linux?

I remember it for two things – it is solid as any of the enterprise-level products and at the same time, it is affordable. It provides a stable environment with complete support from Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) but with the difference of getting free access of security updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle Linux?

Oracle Linux is the lesser community support than the various distribution such as Ubuntu or CentOS. This can make it difficult to come across other community developed fixes or workarounds in addition to the ones which are offered by Oracle support. Also, no advanced features.
