"Windows server is the most user friendly OS"
5/5
What do you like best about Windows Server?

With windows server we can easily manage our production servers. We can easily troubleshoot if we run into any problem. If one person left the organisation then you can get a new person having good knowledge of windows server very easily. Everything is so easily manageable in GUI that no other OS gives us that comfort level.

Indeed a most user friendly OS I have ever worked on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Windows Server?

As far as dislike is concerned, killing the process and restarting some processes is somewhat not that great if we compare it with linux systems. But overall it is a great OS. It jest need to be more experienced on windows on how to start and stop the services or kill the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Windows Server - Standard for any modern business workload"
5/5
What do you like best about Windows Server?

The fact that it is used by the majority of the most significant market players and integrates so well with other Microsoft products, a variety of industrial applications for modern-day use, excellent hardware support and integration with Microsoft SQL databases are just some of the reasons for selecting this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Windows Server?

Sometimes, poorly designed third-party applications can crash the operating system. In addition, Windows updates sometimes also get broken and require some serious troubleshooting. Phone support is not on the level of some other companies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Windows Server"
5/5
What do you like best about Windows Server?

I like the server manager app. It contains access to just about everything you will ever need to run the system. You can setup DHCP, DNS, user accounts, computers, printers, file shares, ODBC setups and much more. It makes everything so easy to access and efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Windows Server?

I still think a big downfall of Windows systems in general, including Windows Server, is how often you have to update and reboot the system to keep it updated and secure. I can tolerate frequent updates, but the number of times you have to reboot after updates seems excessive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
