"Red Hat Enterprise Linux Fell Short on Cost, Security, and Stability"

0.5/5

Red Hat Enterprise Linux did not meet any of our goals for cost, security, ease of use, stability, or the ability to meet any application requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux implementation was a failure from top to bottom. I would not recommend for any production uses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Red Hat Enterprise Linux solving and how is that benefiting you?

Red Hat Enterprise Linux was not able to solve anything from running an internal SIS/BIS to load balancing across several web services.
