| System Engineer at a retailer with 10,001+ employees | 4.5 | I've used Azul Zulu for five years as our main Java runtime; it's a stable, cost-effective drop-in replacement for Oracle JDK, offering excellent support, cross-platform compatibility, and significant licensing savings without compromising performance. |
| Artificial Intelligence Professor at a university with 51-200 employees | 4.0 | I've used Zulu for two years, finding it easy to deploy, stable, and offering OpenJDK performance. My main concerns are the manual updates and the missing Java Web Plugin, despite its easy setup. |
