Windows Server Reviews

We are providing services to our clients using this solution.

The only problem we have faced is when we are upgrading the solution it is complex. 

I have been using this solution for more than 20 years.

The solution is stable.

My whole company is using the solution and we plan to continue using it.

The technical support could have a faster response.

We have been installing the solution for years and it has always been straightforward.

There is a license required for this solution.

I rate Windows Server a six out of ten.

We used Windows Server for file sharing and centralized authentication.

We stopped using Microsoft Server in 2012 due to hardware failure and licensing costs. For these reasons, we decided to move to open-source solutions.

Compared to other solutions, the ease of administration is great. 

In regard to the next release, I would like to see a more scalable solution. I would also like to see any future developments on the market because there was a time when most companies would run away from centralized authentication systems, like Active Directory — they moved to cloud solutions. If the service could be better integrated with the Azure Cloud, I think it would be a plus for Windows.

I used Windows Server from 2003 until 2012.

Windows Server is absolutely stable.

I can't comment on the scalability as we were only using two to three servers and we never attempted to scale out any further.

The technical support is okay. As I have a special relationship with them, It's quite easy for me to get a hold of them. 

I started with FreeBSD, then moved to Solaris. Right now I am only using and recommending Linux.

The installation was easy compared to other operating systems, but the documentation part took longer than usual because I typically specialize in Linux-based operations.

I usually handle the implementation myself. If I encounter a specific issue then I may have to apply for a consultant.

Overall, on a scale from one to ten, I would give this solution a rating of eight. If your environment requires it, I would absolutely recommend Windows Server.

I use this solution for running applications that my clients use.

The solution is user-friendly, the UI looks good, and there are new versions every year. Each new version is very different, better, and cleaner.

I have been using the solution for five years.

We have not had an issue with the stability of this solution. However, there could be some improvements.

The scalability is good.

I was satisfied with the technical support from Microsoft.

The installation is very easy.

I did the implementation of the solution.

I rate Windows Server a nine out of ten.

We use a variety of applications that are hosted on our Windows Server.

This product works well for the applications that we have hosted on it.

Stability-wise, there is room for improvement.

We have been working with Windows Server since it was first released.

This is a scalable product. We have thousands of users.

I have not been in contact with technical support.

We have an in-house team responsible for deployment and maintenance.

This is a product I can recommend and as far as I know, we plan to continue using Windows Server in the future.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

We use Windows Server for hosting web pages, our SQL databases, and other things.

The interface is easy to use.

We had some complaints about the initial setup.

We have been using Windows Server for a couple of years.

This is a stable product.

We have approximately 600 users and there are two engineers responsible for management.

I have no direct experience with Microsoft technical support.

We do not have any Linux-based systems.

This is a normal installation and the initial setup is of average complexity.

It did not take too long to install, although we had some complaints while doing it.

I installed it myself.

Licensing fees are paid on an annual basis, and the price could be improved.

Overall, this is a good product and I recommend it.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

It's easy to set up and deploy. 

It could be more secure. We don't like it because if you compare it to Linux, Linux is better. 

We have been using Windows Server for over 20 years.

Scalability depends on the project. We have more than 1,000 users in our organization.

The initial setup is straightforward. 

I don't install Windows Server by myself anymore. We have a full Department for that.

We pay for the license every month.

I would recommend this solution to potential users.

On a scale from one to ten, I would give Windows Server an eight. 

We use the solution as a server for our information at our company.

The most valuable features I have found to be the flexibility and wide range of support training available.

In the future, there should be better protection for this solution.

I have been using the solution for approximately 20 years.

The solution is stable. However, you can receive a lot of cyberattacks. We need to invest more in security when we are using Windows. It tends to be the target of attacks and hacks compared to other operating systems, such as Linux. 

We have approximately 400 users using the solution in my organization.

We used Ubuntu Linux previously.

The installation of the solution is easy. The time depends on what you are going to configure on the server. The install itself can be done in approximately 10 minutes.

We did the implementation ourselves and we use a team of two developers and three administrators for maintenance.

I would recommend this solution. However, I would advise investing in more security measures. We plan to continue using the solution in the future.

I rate Windows Server a seven out of ten.

We use this solution for business applications.

It's user-friendly.

The security is not good. Windows Server has never been secure. You have put firewalls in place and do other things such as installing anti-virus software to secure Windows, otherwise, it won't work well.

Windows will never be secure, but it should be.

We have been using this solution for several years from 2008 to version 2015. We use it extensively.

Technical support is fair. It's okay.

It is very easy to install.

It doesn't take very much time at all, it's very easy, just click until it's finished.

I completed the installation myself.

It is priced very well and we pay an annual license fee.

It's not very expensive when compared to Linux.

We plan to continue to use this solution and would recommend it to others who are interested in using it.

I would rate Windows Server a seven out of ten.
