Jagadeesh Sanuboina - PeerSpot reviewer
Engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Proactive server management has reduced incidents and saves time through automated health checks
One improvement area I identified is reducing manual operational work, such as health checks, file system monitoring, log cleanup, and path validation. I rated Oracle Linux 7 | Support by SupportedImages 8 out of 10 because I need improvements in automation. I recommend several important improvements. I would suggest moving new builds to Oracle Linux 8 or 9 and avoiding creating new long-term workloads on Oracle Linux 7. I should keep Oracle Linux 7 mainly for existing legacy applications while migration is planned. Another improvement I recommend is modernizing Oracle Linux 7 image lifecycle by not creating new Oracle Linux 7 workloads. I would standardize hardened golden images, automate patching and vulnerability scanning, and migrate applications towards Oracle Linux 8 or 9. For existing Oracle Linux 7 systems, I should maintain an accurate inventory and ensure extended support updates are being applied. This improves security, reliability, governance, and reduces operational effort.

Real-time chat has boosted one-to-one messaging and user engagement in my mobile projects
The best features PubNub offers, in my opinion, are one-to-one chat, as I mentioned in my review, and the great SDK documentation which allows for easy integration that does not take much time. Setting up channels, message listeners, tracking user status to determine whether users are online or offline, and ensuring reliable message delivery are all great features. I find myself relying on all three of those features the most because the presence tracking is great, the delivery speed is superb compared to other SDKs, and the user status updates immediately pop up, which is significant. The integration is very easy, so any new developers can easily understand the integration process thanks to the clear documentation. PubNub has positively impacted my organization as I have received numerous reviews and feedback stating that the chat works much faster and cleaner, and everyone appreciates it, saying it feels powerful. After implementing PubNub, I noticed positive outcomes such as client feedback acknowledging that they enjoyed the chat features and found them much faster than in other applications, which I believe is very positive feedback for any organization.

"If we had implemented all of this on our own, we would have had to hire at least 50 more employees for that, so we are very happy with PubNub and we have saved a lot of time."
"PubNub has positively impacted my organization as I have received numerous reviews and feedback stating that the chat works much faster and cleaner, and everyone appreciates it, saying it feels powerful."
"PubNub's push notification and chat features stand out because of ease of use and very easy integration within our application."

Cons

"Customer support is very poor and not very good."
"However, Oracle Linux 7 is outdated, so I recommend users to use the latest version."
"I suggest improving Oracle Linux 7 | Support by SupportedImages by implementing faster support response time, especially for critical production incidents, and providing clearer lifecycle guidance and better communication about security updates, support timelines, and migration recommendations."
"Sometimes we do have some system performance issues."
"I can face downtime with Oracle Linux 7 | Support by SupportedImages mainly during kernel patching and reboot activities."
"The scalability of Oracle Linux 7 | Support by SupportedImages can be improved with features from Oracle Linux 9."
"Most of the time there are some instances at the load peak hours or sometimes payload is missed by the application or SDK at the SDK level."
"The reliability of PubNub is really good, but occasionally we face issues where users complain about messages or push notifications not being delivered within a short period of time, as it occasionally takes longer, which could be due to outages."
"I gave PubNub a rating of nine out of ten because of the many features discussed, but I deducted one point because the cost increases with scale."
"Since PubNub is a paid library, it may not be useful for everyone."
"Regarding customer support from PubNub, around six years ago, we did not receive good support."
"I believe PubNub can improve in terms of pricing transparency, as I previously mentioned, since that is the only thing I think should be improved because for smaller projects or startups, estimating scaling costs can be challenging."
