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 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."
"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."
"I use openSUSE Leap as the base for the Kubernetes cluster we run in-house."
"Stable - it just runs without the necessity to reboot."
"openSUSE Leap has helped me with using containers in Podman."
"The most valuable feature is the binary compatibility i.e. that Oracle Linux is 100% compatible with Red Hat Linux."
"The virtual environment is the best I've ever worked with."
"The stability is excellent and the initial setup is easy."
"The most valuable features are performance, frequent update patches, and security."
"It is secure in terms of the network, the viruses, etc."
"There are several valuable features in Oracle Linux. For example, it's very secure and stable. You don't have to reboot it frequently."
"The graphical interface is fine. And the documentation is extremely valuable."
"The speed is quite good."
"There is room for improvement in the console."
"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."
"In the future, the Active Directory could improve."
"Like most Linux-based operating systems, the biggest challenge Leap faces is the GUI."
"Somehow the change from OS12.x via 13.x to Leap was a bit bumpy and some old issues seemed to reappear."
"It does not have any reporting on attempted intrusions."
"The installation documentation needs to be improved"
"Oracle Linux could improve by having better compatibility with other solutions. Some aspects of the configuration are difficult. I was using Oracle Linux on a Mac computer and it was very difficult to set up."
"The solution could be more user friendly."
"The support process is time-consuming as it involves several steps."
"Most day-to-day applications are not native to this solution. You have to run an emulator or virtual machine, such as VMware to access these Windows applications."
"The solution can be improved by making it more user-friendly for basic users to reduce the time it takes to learn the commands and to reduce the dependencies that come with the OS so the deployment time can be reduced."
"It would be ideal if they added a faster implementation of the security fixes, if possible."
