Artificial Intelligence Professor at a university with 51-200 employees

It is based on OpenJDK so you obtain practically the same performance compared to Hotspot.

I've been using Zulu on Windows and OSX, and although it has many other features, I can mention 3: - It is based on OpenJDK so you obtain practically the same performance compared to Hotspot; - Azul offers options to embed it on your apps; and - It only packs JDK and excludes the web plugin.

Architecte SAP & Infrastructure at Teamwork

Good stability and good visibility but requires a better user interface

We're an SAP partner. We do also deploy some clients to the cloud, but 95% of the work we do with the solution is on-premises. I'd rate the solution six out of ten. I'm an architect, so I don't know enough about the implementation side to really be able to share any relevant first-hand experience in regards to setting the solution up.
