We performed a comparison between openSUSE Leap and Windows 10 based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Operating Systems (OS) for Business solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I use openSUSE Leap as the base for the Kubernetes cluster we run in-house."
"The solution is easy for me to use because the backend is derived from FreeBSD and this is something I have been using for over 20 years."
"openSUSE Leap has helped me with using containers in Podman."
"Stable - it just runs without the necessity to reboot."
"The solution is very stable after it is configured. It is hard to have a panel slow, a problem, misconfiguration, or any kind of loss function."
"The most valuable feature by far has been the virtualization capabilities of the operating system."
"The solution has very useful features."
"The solution scales well."
"I think that they have been doing a great job for a long time now when it comes to installation and user experience."
"The solution is stable and scalable."
"The installation is very easy and takes approximately 30 minutes."
"It helps me with being able to multitask and run various applications in tandem."
"Every new version is always an improvement on the last."
"Windows setup isn't very complicated. Mostly, we have someone proficient in Windows to do our installations."
"Like most Linux-based operating systems, the biggest challenge Leap faces is the GUI."
"The initial system setup or network configuration of the solution is not straightforward and can be improved."
"I would like openSUSE Leap to have better link integration with Windows."
"Somehow the change from OS12.x via 13.x to Leap was a bit bumpy and some old issues seemed to reappear."
"There is room for improvement in the console."
"In the future, the Active Directory could improve."
"Sometimes, upgrades may fail, leading to system crashes or other unexpected issues."
"The apps view that I get on my screen is not much useful for me. If I have to search for anything, I go to the Search bar and type there. They can maybe include integration with some third-party products."
"I would like to see the price reduced."
"In the next release, Windows could make the interface more user-friendly. They could add more dashboards. The performance could also maybe be better."
"As an open source application, the solution should be more accomodative."
"They should lower the price point."
"Linux is more secure, and, although this solution has come a long way, it would be helpful if they could continue to develop the security aspects of the product."
"It would be better if they brought back the easy way to create multiple sessions on Windows 10. It's very complicated for our customers, and most of the time they need to call us to do it because they know that we are in an office environment and most of the time the competence is not for only one person. To optimize the resources, they need to have several sessions on the same desktop or the same workstation. This makes it easier to manage and maintain. My recommendation is to bring back the easy way and have several sessions on the same operating system. The price could be better as well."
