Featured Reviews

Massimiliano Adamo - PeerSpot reviewer
Linux architect at European Commission
Has supported seamless migrations and enabled running complex data workloads securely
The best features Rocky Linux offers include clustering and all the packages from Red Hat.Rocky Linux has impacted my organization very positively because we migrated everything from CentOS and Windows servers to Rocky Linux. Everything is clear, with good packaging, and now it's version 9.6, which is very important for us due to security problems since we are in Europe. Rocky Linux is very good for security and other aspects. Since migrating to Rocky Linux, I've seen specific outcomes such as improved security because CentOS stopped the project, and security patches aren't being released. We need to maintain a system similar to Red Hat, which is very stable and has many features such as file system, topology, and containers.
Natalia Munera - PeerSpot reviewer
CEO at Autonomic Mind
Automation has saved time and improved focus on strategic work
I think that when you are running CRM and at the same time Zoho Analytics, and at the same time Zoho Recruit, the apps get very slow. So I think Zoho has to improve on that, to ensure that the velocity or the speed is fast, even when you are using a lot of apps at the same time.

Pros

"Rocky Linux is suitable for our needs... we have a very good team with high skills in Linux and development, and it works correctly with no enterprise cost or enterprise license."
"The experience of working with Rocky Linux is the same as with other Linux distributions; there was no difficulty for me in learning how to work with it."
"The custom install scripts streamline the setup process, making it straightforward."
"I haven't needed to use customer service or support, which speaks volumes about their product's reliability and ease of use."
"Rocky Linux has positively impacted my organization by making things simpler, especially with not having to escalate privileges all the time using sudo as compared to Ubuntu flavors."
"Rocky Linux has been a major driver for our cloud migration strategy and has proven to be one of the most cost-effective solutions for us, allowing us to save huge revenue while maintaining fantastic consistency with updates."
"Rocky Linux has been a reliable and cost-effective platform for us, and its RHEL compatibility, stability, and strong community make it a solid choice for QA, development, and private cloud environments."
"The best features Rocky Linux offers, in my experience, are its simplicity, which helps us troubleshoot effectively, along with enhanced security features, security hardening capabilities, and the ability to perform regular patches."
"Zoho One is fully customizable—in Zoho One, you get more than 45 applications, which include inventory management, accounting management, and CRM, as well as Zoho Creator, which allows you to create custom applications."
"Zoho One is a good application; I think there are a lot of tools that help you to make your work faster, you can automate a lot of operative work, so you can save time in making detailed and operative activities and just focus on the strategic."
 

Cons

"In terms of scalability, you need to have automation tools."
"I chose a rating of eight out of ten because Rocky Linux must grow more; it is not as comparable to Red Hat, which is why I took off those two points."
"I see some performance-related issues, but we are still checking on that, and we don't know if it is related to the OS or the resource; that is something still to be checked from our end."
"One of the potential issues is that if you don't pay for support, you may need to manage certain aspects on your own and rely on the community for assistance."
"Rocky Linux could be improved with API-based tools that would help our streaming environment be monitored using DataMiner."
"Rocky Linux could be improved by having more integration with Kubernetes."
"To be honest, Rocky Linux is almost similar to each Linux distribution, so I have no specific reason why it should offer me its features."
"In terms of improvement, Rocky Linux needs to clarify its identity and target audience."
"I think that when you are running CRM and at the same time Zoho Analytics, and at the same time Zoho Recruit, the apps get very slow."
"The only area in Zoho One that can be improved is the support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice
