CentOS Reviews

I use the solution as a SIEM tool for system locking purposes.

They should improve the solution's hardware performance.

I have been using the solution for four years.

It is a stable solution.

We have five to ten users of the solution at our organization. We may plan to increase the number of users. It is challenging to scale the solution when we have to increase the storage capacity from one end.

I have used Kali Linux before. I switched to CentOS as it is free of cost and has a good infrastructure.

The solution's initial setup is easy. There are installation options provided. We can either do a full or a minimum installation. It is easy to install tools in it. The process takes 30 minutes to complete.

I implemented the solution myself.

I recommend the solution to others and rate it as a seven. I advise others to know about the solution's commands before purchasing it.

I use CentOS as an operating system for many of the services we are using.

CentOS should extend the support of the solution. The solution is set to have no update support in 2023.

I have been using CentOS for approximately 10 years.

CentOS is stable.

The scalability of CentOS is good. We can deploy the operating system in many hardware, laptops, and servers.

This solution is not used by end-users, it is used by IT staff.

There is not any technical support available from CentOS since it is open-source. However, there is a large community where information can be found for any problem that might arise.

The initial setup of CentOS was simple. There was some configuration to be completed but then it is up and running.

We did the implementation in-house.

This is a free solution.

The number of maintenance people needed depends on the company and its strategy.

I recommend this solution to others but the support of the solution is ending next year.

I rate CentOS an eight out of ten.

I run my personal applications on CentOS.

CentOS is not easy. 

I have searched the command center, but I cannot switch the accounts.

I have been working with CentOS for four years.

I am working with the latest version of CentOS.

CentOS is a stable product.

The technical support is good.

YouTube contains a wealth of information. YouTube is an excellent source of information.

The CentOS website provides useful information and allows you to download the PPS, which is a benefit.

Approximately two years ago, I worked with Google Drive.

I also work with Kali Linux.

CentOS can be easily installed in VMWare and VirtualBox. The installation is straightforward. However, on the server, it is difficult for me to detect errors and check other applications.

It took seven months to complete the installation.

I completed the installation myself.

I'm not required to pay a licensing fee.

If you are an IT technician or an apprentice, I would recommend this solution, however, if you are a regular user, I cannot recommend it because I find it confusing and difficult to use.

I will continue to use this solution.

I would rate CentOS a seven out of ten.

CentOS is a good and stable system. It provides everything you need for web servers and database servers.

One server can hold a few thousand users.

Installation can be done through an automated process.

The server system is a little bit tough to manage. It is not as easy as I would like it to be.

I've been using it for more than ten years.

We use dedicated servers for this solution.

The stability and performance are good.

We used a fully automated process for installation.

There are no licensing fees. CentOS is a free solution.

We evaluated Fedora.

CentOS is more simple than Windows, and I would rate it at ten on a scale from one to ten.

We primarily use the solution for testing software and applications in the IT industry. I also study the storage system of AI on CentOS.

CentOS adapts well to many software and applications, providing good compatibility. Additionally, there are many online communities to learn from, which is beneficial.

CentOS can be somewhat difficult for beginners, as it has a complex UI, especially for those not in the IT field. Adding more support could be beneficial, though Red Hat with IBM support is an alternative that may be costly. Also, modernizing CentOS could be a suggestion.

CentOS is a stable operating system, and I would rate its stability as nine out of ten.

I do not have personal experience with customer service for CentOS.

Positive

The initial setup was very easy. I would rate the ease of setup at 8.5 out of ten.

I am not responsible for the setup cost in my company, so I am unsure about the cost of the license.

I recommend CentOS for its stability and its ability to adapt to many software and applications. It is also very accessible.
