"Stable, Standard, Performant"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Oracle Linux?

Application stability and Performant OS. Always gives reliable performance even under stress. The systems are pretty standard and help with a lot of the devops style deployments to go absolutely smooth. Love the Linux community. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle Linux?

The Oracle Repositories sometimes lack some of the nicer tools that many other Xnix systems like CentOS and Ubuntu support out-of-the-box. I did love to see them pre-packaged or atleast remain available through additional repo files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Oracle Linux:

Very stable and standard Linux system. If you are looking for personal desktops choose a different flavour of Linux, but if you are looking for enterprise grade deployments this is a good choice.

Strengths: Stability, Reliable, Performance, OS Tools

Can be better: Patches, Additional Repos for smart tools Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
