We performed a comparison between Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and Windows 11 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."With regard to security, most companies are moving towards the black box approach and Red Hat. It's much more secure compared to the other vendors."
"I like the speed of the OS data and the ease of Ansible automation. I don't need to spend much time managing everything."
"I like most of the features. I like its stability. I like its views. It provides a very stable environment."
"The security, ongoing support, and ease of taking a system and getting authorization from a government agency have helped the way our organization functions."
"I prefer AIX, but Red Hat Enterprise Linux is cheaper."
"I like its user-friendliness for the admins administering the servers and the ease of doing fix packs on the servers and upgrades with the Red Hat software. It saves time and cost because we don't need to have expensive hires to do the work. We can do it ourselves a lot of times. It's a pretty straightforward, easy-to-learn, and user-friendly operating system."
"We use Red Hat Enterprise Linux with Git apps in our closed environment to develop and run scenarios."
"The containerized platform will help us use ROSA."
"It is a stable solution."
"The variety of tools utilized to meet unique needs across the company and different departments."
"The tool's most valuable feature is its stability. When we planned the migration, about 70 percent of it was done remotely. We encountered some incidents, which were resolved quickly."
"The ability to divide the screen into two or three sections is useful."
"The solution's steps are now very customized and it has great functionality."
"The new search bar is a valuable feature."
"Windows 11 is an easy-to-use solution."
"We are migrating from Windows 10 to Windows 11 due to end-of-life, security concerns, and end-of-support. The tool's configuration is good and we are satisfied with it since it's a Microsoft product. We didn't face any hurdles in using the tool. We didn't feel much difference with both Windows products. The solution is good because in IT we want to secure our data. Nowadays, data is the most valuable thing. If your data is secured, then you are secured. I think that everyone has to move to Windows 11 since Windows 10 is facing end-of-life and end-of-sales, probably by 2024."
"Sometimes the solution deletes our archives or other features that were useful to us."
"Scaling can be complicated and has room for improvement."
"The solution's ecosystem is good but it would be better to create cohesive components in all of the development tools."
"Red Hat Insights are instrumental in identifying vulnerabilities. I am still learning, but my understanding is that it is not directly connected to your environment to deploy a patch or vulnerability fix. It is going to give a YAML playbook to do that. It does not actually execute it."
"I would like Insight to include some features from OpenSCAP, which they offer for compliance services. I played with it a little bit, but haven't gotten the updated setup to get that. It creates excellent documentation."
"Security could be increased."
"At times, language is a barrier when it comes to support."
"Its pricing is good and competitive."
"The solution must improve its aesthetics."
"There is room for improvement in terms of security."
"The solution's installation process could be less time-consuming."
