"I like the product's stable distribution. The tool offered us very good experience since it was very stable."
"The features that I have found to be the most valuable are the performance, stability, and support that Oracle offers for the solution."
"It helps us to create users and groups. We can also plan on the access that will be given to them. I use it for identity management during the installment and configuration process. We use it to start or stop processes and services. Another use case of the solution is post-opening."
"Oracle Linux is very secure making it one of the most valuable features. Additionally, it is easy to manage."
"Overall Oracle Linux is very good."
"The solution's technical support team answers all our queries."
"Windows 10 is a user-friendly solution that has good stability and performance."
"The performance is good."
"It is stable, scalable, and secure. It is also easy to install."
"Windows is so widely used that almost every problem has been encountered by someone else. There are usually multiple solutions or workarounds available online. So, in that sense, the support is pretty good."
"All the features the solution has are enough for us and we are satisfied."
"I would say that the solution is stable."
"The solution has good stability."
"For the most part, Windows 10 is the same as earlier versions of the operating system, but there are more ways to find files and programs. It's user-friendly."
"There needs to be overall better integration."
"They could introduce the same level of remote capabilities, which are available with VMware applications to build distant environments."
"Pricing could be improved."
"I would like Oracle Linux to have more frequent updates."
"The tool’s user interface needs to improve."
"Technical support slow to respond."
"The graphic interface could be improved to work better in a desktop environment."
"Occasionally, we might get an alert to restart our database, and if we don't do it on our own, the system will do it automatically. That can cause downtime issues if your clients aren't expecting it."
"There is room for improvement when it comes to the licensing."
"So it would be nice to have the option to switch between this design and the previous one. Working with Windows 7, I preferred to use commands or applications like in the old version."
"I would prefer to see an OS that is lighter."
"Windows 7 and Windows 10 are identical. However, Windows 10 is the slowest of all the variants. You need to use a solid-state drive if you are going to run Windows. Otherwise, once you install it, and give it some time it is going to slow your whole system down. Especially if you are using the internet, it is going to slow your system down fast. Additionally, it could be more secure as Windows 10 is more vulnerable to viruses."
"Setup and use between multiple monitors should be easier."
"The solution is stable."
"It would be great if the solution was more stable. It's a mass-produced product and people around the world use it extensively, which makes it a target for attacks. It needs better security against hackers."
"There are a lot of patches that are released frequently that always ask for a reboot. This causes errors and unpredictable actions on the computer. Sometimes it will get hot and reboot and all those kind of patches which will happen after an installation. That is something that needs improvement."
