What do you like best about Red Hat Enterprise Linux?

I enjoy the open-source ecosystem of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). RHEL, along with other RPM-based distributions (Fedora, CentOS, etc.), have a great package management system (dnf/yum), and the dependency resolution is really nice, regardless of if fetching content from the public Red Hat servers, or via a local Red Hat Satellite server. I also enjoy Red Hat Insights and being able to view statistics about my system (compliance, patches, asset information) on the go, without needing to log into the system or an underlying hypervisor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Red Hat Enterprise Linux?

I'm unsure if this is specific to RHEL, or if other Enterprise Linux distributions face this same issue, but some of the features included in RHEL are not always FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standards) compliant. The one utility that is not FIPS compliant is Leapp, which is a bit frustrating, especially during the RHEL 7/CentOS 7 End-of-Life. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Red Hat Enterprise Linux?

Because RHEL is dependable and consistent, I enjoy it. Its dependability and exceptional capacity to revert to the prior state of configuration make it suitable for use in mission-critical applications. Long-term security and dependability are guaranteed, and regular updates and patches are provided in addition to long-term support. I like the support team's promptness; every time I file a case for help or clarification, I always receive a prompt response. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Red Hat Enterprise Linux?

What do you like best about Red Hat Enterprise Linux?

As a long time user of Red Hat Linux, I have found the tools and management systems that Red Hat provides crucial in helping to maintain stable and consistent deployment. Red hat also does a lot of open source development work that goes "up the Chain" to benefit the whole Linux ecosystem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Red Hat Enterprise Linux?

I dislike very little about Red Hat linux. I think IBMs corporate ownership is my biggest negative, however, it is balanced by the open source and vendor neutral nature of the underlying open source ecosystem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
