"We use windows server from a long time its very useful, productive and stable operating system."
What do you like best about Windows Server?

There are many different features in different editions of windows server. Its diffcuilt to write what is the best in it. I will write about the features which i liked in Windows Server 2016 because i have used this server edition for many years. first thing is implemention is easy. Few of the features which i ilke is containers service, secure boot, replacing ram and network adapters in virtual machine even if the virtual machine is active state. This features we use more, our frequency of use is everyday. If we need any help we contact customer support. Windows Defender is upgraded to detect malware threats, Storage space management has been improved. These features helps in ease integration with other applications. There are many more features which are easy to use which i liked but its diffcuilt to write everything here. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Operation System to host business applications"

Ease of use. Deployment is easy. Overall maintenance is easy. Works well with all industry standard applications. Not much performance issues. Skilled resources and many partners available who can provide support. Security features are good. Installation of any application does not take much time. Works well on VM, cloud environment and physical server. Power shell feature is good. IIS feature is good. User role feature is good. Rdp feature is good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Windows Server?

Licensing becoming costly every year. Microsoft technical support needs massive improvement. Security updates are released every month which becomes tough for organization to patch every month. Exploitation of vulnerabilities are easy in windows as compared to linux and other open source operating systems. Auditing feature need to be improved. Hardening parameters needs improvement.

"Ease of use compared to other OS"
What do you like best about Windows Server?

The best thing I like about the Windows servers is their Ease of use and troubleshooting. Continuous updates and patchings are really impressive from Microsoft. The thing that one should comment on is that Windows servers don't need administrators to resolve the issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Windows Server?

My dislikes are very low as a Windows administrator I personally feel Windows is likely to compromise on security in terms of hacking practices. However, a proper and secure network setup secures Windows from being compromised. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The most diffused software solution for servers, a lot of support threads, great docs by Mifrosoft, works nicely, lots of features for enterprises, administration is easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Windows Server?

Upgrading to new versions of Windows Server should be simpler, also migrating features and services to a new Windows Server could be simpler.
