We performed a comparison between openSUSE Leap and Oracle Linux 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."openSUSE Leap has helped me with using containers in Podman."
"Stable - it just runs without the necessity to reboot."
"The solution is very stable after it is configured. It is hard to have a panel slow, a problem, misconfiguration, or any kind of loss function."
"The most valuable feature by far has been the virtualization capabilities of the operating system."
"I use openSUSE Leap as the base for the Kubernetes cluster we run in-house."
"The solution is easy for me to use because the backend is derived from FreeBSD and this is something I have been using for over 20 years."
"There is full compatibility with RedHat-based operating systems, in particular Centos, which we widely deployed before Oracle Linux (OL)."
"We find the consolidated support for this solution and other same vendor systems to be an extremely valuable feature. This allows for faster resolution of issues and consistency of support personnel."
"It is good for web, network, and file management."
"Oracle Linux for Oracle databases is the top. There's no doubt whatsoever."
"It is a good solution, and the performance is good."
"I like the product's stable distribution. The tool offered us very good experience since it was very stable."
"Oracle Linux's most valuable feature is flexibility."
"It's mostly reliable."
"Like most Linux-based operating systems, the biggest challenge Leap faces is the GUI."
"The initial system setup or network configuration of the solution is not straightforward and can be improved."
"I would like openSUSE Leap to have better link integration with Windows."
"Somehow the change from OS12.x via 13.x to Leap was a bit bumpy and some old issues seemed to reappear."
"In the future, the Active Directory could improve."
"There is room for improvement in the console."
"The graphic interface could be improved to work better in a desktop environment."
"Oracle Linux performs best on Linux or Unix. However, you cannot get the same performance or stability in Windows."
"What can improve in the solution is a rather challenging question given that Oracle is pushing towards cloud computing and the closed nature of the system. Maintaining Oracle Linux behind a firewall can be a cumbersome process, as it requires manual intervention to copy repositories and obtain approval from internal authorities. With the current emphasis on cloud computing, the support and development of traditional, closed systems like Oracle Linux may not receive as much attention, leading to potential limitations in the system's capabilities and performance."
"Since it is a VM, it gets slow. It can be an area for improvement."
"Time drifts happen frequently, and the database restarts automatically to protect data integrity."
"There needs to be overall better integration."
"The solution could be more user friendly."
"The installation documentation needs to be improved"
