"openSUSE Leap has helped me with using containers in Podman."
"The most valuable feature by far has been the virtualization capabilities of the operating system."
"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 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."
"It has a good amount of mount points."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The features that I have found to be the most valuable are the performance, stability, and support that Oracle offers for the solution."
"The solution runs very well on inter-platform or HPE Intel servers."
"Oracle Linux for Oracle databases is the top. There's no doubt whatsoever."
"One of the main features of this solution is it is secure."
"It is a stable solution. We rarely face any issues with the machine."
"It is good for web, network, and file management."
"Like most Linux-based operating systems, the biggest challenge Leap faces is the GUI."
"I would like openSUSE Leap to have better link integration with Windows."
"The initial system setup or network configuration of the solution is not straightforward and can be improved."
"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 Oracle Linux graphical interface could be improved by fixing its occasional freezing on personal home laptops."
"Pricing could be improved."
"The installation documentation needs to be improved"
"Technical support slow to respond."

"Time drifts happen frequently, and the database restarts automatically to protect data integrity."
"What we found in moving from Oracle Linux 6 to Oracle Linux 7 was the whole interfacing with the application and the fact that operating had all changed, all the commands had changed. You need to be aware that there is some kind of training, some kind of handover required for your technical guys, understanding different ways of interacting with it. Bear that in mind."
"It would be ideal if they added a faster implementation of the security fixes, if possible."
