There are no cons in CentOS or Red Hat products. The cons are mostly found in Microsoft products.
My organization asked us to identify the possibilities of using Oracle Linux. That's why I am studying options.

I sometimes use Ubuntu for network service. The main difference is that if you don't upgrade with Ubuntu, you have to change the source and that can create problems that we don't experience with CentOS.
Because the solution is being depreciated, we are considering moving to Ubuntu but haven't made that decision yet.
