The various Windows Server editions include a wide range of functionality. Writing what works best in it is difficult. Having used Windows Server 2016 for many years, I will discuss the features that I found most appealing. The first is that implementation is simple. A few features that I like include the ability to replace RAM and network adapters in virtual machines even when they are in an active state, secure boot, and container services. We utilize these features more frequently—every day. Our first port of call for assistance is customer support. To better identify malware threats, Windows Defender has been updated. Storage space management has also been enhanced. The integration of these functionalities with other programs is made easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
