What do you dislike about Oracle Linux?

If I had to say something I don't like, it is the scalability of the system, although it is true that it remains licensed Red Hat, it has several limitations and that spoils the user experience a bit. Otherwise, it is a robust operating system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Oracle Linux?

Being an Oracle database Solution Architect since 10 years, i have a preference to use Oracle products if they are really good.

Although, you can run these products on other supported OS like RedHat but certain features like smart scan for Exadata is only supported on Oracle Linux. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Oracle Linux?

It's relatively simplicity for use, practicality and utilitarianism. Its pretty easy to get things done with it, but it’s not that exciting to use at all.

What do you dislike about Oracle Linux?

It's often very slow to use, and has a very displeasing aesthetics appearance. It’s not fun to use. It’s bland and boring. It just brings down my mood. I start to feel really down and depressed some times when using it because it's just not fun at all and it just makes me feel like I'm trapped in a boring office building in the 1980's while using it! Needs improvement aesthetically. These things matter too!!! Practicality doesn't have to be everything! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Oracle Linux?

I installed Oracle Linux as an alternative to RHEL and CentOS for workstation purposes. I like 100% binary compatibility, kernel that is much newer than in CentOS, overall quality and that it is possible to run Oracle as desktop not only server. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle Linux?

Because kernel is very fresh I think that there should be an option to install latest GUI like KDE Plasma 5, most people run Oracle without gui as a server but for desktop I do't think that It will ruin the stability. It would be nice to have older and newer options. It will be good for newcomers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
