Satellite gives administrators the ability to target deployments and only send out the updates or provision updates to certain groups.

The most valuable feature is the fact that you don't have to expose your mission-critical environment to the Internet. With the Satellite system in place, it acts as a barrier between your Red Hat infrastructure and the public Internet.

The 'remote execution' feature further helps manage systems on a consistent basis.

The most valuable feature is the management of the distributed tool we use in the Red Hat Linux Servers.

Patch management is, for sure, most valuable. For license management and patch management, I would rate it a 10 out of 10.

It has been a stable solution...It is a totally scalable solution.

Fixing is the most valuable. When you deal with a lot of hardware and software and you have a lot of packages, fixing is a bit difficult. You need to track and pull up all such things, but Satellite makes this task easy. We have branches in other locations, and I can manage other branches by using Satellite Capsule, which is a great feature.

The product could have more diversity in what it is able to deploy and might do better if it was not dedicated to Red Hat products only.

The dashboard of Satellite is not encouraging. It does not adequately showcase all the functionality it offers.

Red Hat Satellite has a short life cycle and we constantly need to update.

There needs to be some margin for improvement in terms of the way Satellite manages subscriptions. It is still very confusing when we have different contracts or different bundles of subscriptions, and we need to manage those within Satellite in a way that's very user-friendly.

The documentation could be better.

It should basically include a complete slew of system management and monitoring tools such as Nagios. It should be a single pane of glass that gives us a complete solution. It is a good solution, but it is missing a few important things. We're using Capsule for DMVs on other secured zones. Capsule is a part of Satellite to be a proxy of sorts.

Regarding the product's ability to support third-party tools, Red Hat doesn't support all the layers from the open-source version of Linux.

It wasn't easy in the beginning, and some effort was required to work it out. I already had the product documentation, but it was not well organized. It wasn't easy to follow. There were a lot of documents here and there.
