"IBM AIX is superb"
What do you like best about IBM AIX?

IBM AIX is the best OS i have used in my carrier. It is much more advanced and secure than Amazon Linux. Commands are bit different than Linux which makes it more secure than other falvours. We all were very comfortable using this AIX box for our banking transactions without any fear Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM AIX?

We should have knowledge of AIX separately to learn and have to run commands to have a look and feel of this OS. This makes it more secure and reliable. But as far as as dislikes are concerned i don't think there would be any. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
