We performed a comparison between Google Chrome Enterprise and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Operating Systems (OS) for Business solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution's most valuable feature is its browser, which offers good performance."
"Google Sheets and Google Docs are the most valuable features of the solution."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Chrome functions as a comprehensive solution due to its continuous self-evaluation and improvement. The evolution process has been significant, with a notable distance covered from its inception to the present. Notably, features like VPN support have been incorporated over time, enhancing the platform's capabilities. A distinctive feature is that users don't even need to know the Wi-Fi password; upon signing into the machine, internet connectivity is established immediately. Furthermore, the cloud storage system ensures data isn't stored locally, making it seamless for users to switch between machines. In summary, Google Chrome Enterprise is an excellent solution, particularly when there's a shortage of available manpower."
"We use the product to run applications and devices."
"Chrome Enterprise is really easy to deploy and manage."
"The solution is easy to use."
"The breadth and capability of the various extensions and plug-ins that are out there for Chrome to do additional things on top of just working in the browser are fantastic."
"The technical support is very helpful."
"I have seen a return on investment, especially considering the time taken to resolve the problem where we bought some support from Red Hat."
"For us, its security, management, stability, and hardening are most valuable."
"Red Hat is open source, so what we get with Red Hat Enterprise Linux is valuable support that is not included in the free version."
"Its scalability and ease of setup and configuration are most valuable. When we have a hardware failure, we just save the configuration files, and in about half an hour, we have another server running with the same configuration. It is really easy to replace servers. This is the best feature."
"The flexible and extensive system makes it easy to cluster, check redundancies, and perform data backups."
"It is a good operating system. It is very stable. It does not take a lot of maintenance. You set it up well and it runs."
"Red Hat Enterprise Linux is the underlying licensing system that our third-party tool uses. It offers convenience. We can open a case when we want to escalate anything."
"Additional data security and data privacy features could be proactively recommended by Google."
"Chromebooks are hard to find in the Indonesian market."
"The tool is not very user-friendly."
"The product must improve its speed."
"They need to deal with their memory management."
"You still need to have a pretty good understanding of GCP to deploy it properly."
"The solution could be made cheaper."
"I wish there was a way that they could update things a little less often if anything. I think a lot of enterprise customers are frustrated... Certain plug-ins like ad blockers will lose some functionality in the next quarter to half a year."
"Large application vendors may not have certified RHEL, or they have certified an older version. Most of the large application vendors are unfamiliar with the versioning that RHEL introduced, which I strongly support. They will support a given sub-version up to a point, not realizing that the sub-versions are essentially additive."
"Some of the solution's features need to be automated. We encounter the hassle of registering the system and attaching a subscription."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward but can be tedious at times because of the compliance things that we have to implement."
"I would like training to be added to the subscription. It would be useful for when you have to train yourself or get a certification. There are many things that we are not using because we don't know how to use them. Having training included in the subscription would help us in learning more things and utilizing the full power of the solution."
"Although the price is reasonable, there is room for improvement in order to stand out from other open-source solutions."
"Having an image that includes all the necessary software and provisioning it so that subsequent updates provide the updated image, would significantly enhance the developer experience. It would be great if teams could make modifications and changes to the image, like rebasing. I think it would be an awesome feature."
"I don't like the UI changes that come with different versions."
"If they can make the integration with Ansible easier, that would be ideal."
