CentOS Reviews

We use it for the DNS server, and we have some in-house apps that we are running on it for internal processes.

Its performance is most valuable. There is a performance boost as compared to when the applications are run on Windows OS.

It could be more secure.

I have been using this solution for a few months.

It is stable. In the previous upgrade, there were a lot of bug fixes.

We have cluster nodes, so we can extend and have more servers in the cluster. When we have more incoming requests and more processes for extending functions of the software, we need to scale the server. We work with the vendor for maintaining the software and the server.

We have more than 300 users, and half of them are using the software.

Their support is good.

It took two to three days. We did it over the weekend, and we had two technical people.

I would recommend this solution to others. I would rate it an eight out of 10.

Our primary use case of CentOS is running our personal applications. We use it on practically all of the machines and servers. It's deployed on-prem. 

A valuable features of CentOS is that it's quite stable and doesn't crash often. It's also quite intuitive. 

CentOS could be improved by being more secure. Of course, we use a firewall, but security is always a concern. 

We have been using this solution for almost eight years. 

This solution is quite stable and doesn't crash often. You only need one person to maintain it. 

There aren't any issues with scalability. It's easy to test our applications. 

Everything is totally on CentOS, so there are about 300 people in my organization using CentOS. 

We don't actually require much support for CentOS. 

We used to use Windows 7, but we had issues with licensing and other things. 

CentOS is quite easy to install. Our IT guys install it themselves and it doesn't take many people. The installation takes almost four hours, depending on the machine. If the machine is good, it can even be installed and updated in two hours. You can handle the installation yourself. 

We implemented through an in-house team. 

I rate this solution a nine out of ten. I would recommend CentOS to others because it's a good operating system. 

Our file management system is based on CentOS.

It's quite good.

It is better than Ubuntu Linux.

We occasionally have issues with software installation. For example, if we want to install a gen framework, we will face some challenges.

I have been working with CentOS for approximately five years.

We are using the latest version of CentOS.

CentOS is a stable product.

In our organization, there are four or five users.

At the moment, we have no plans to increase our usage.

We have not yet contacted technical support.

We are also using Ubuntu Linux.

The installation can take up to a day, but it can also be completed in as little as 10 minutes.

We have a team of four or five engineers who will install and maintain this solution.

We have no complaints about the price, which is quite reasonable.

We have a CentOS license that we pay for on a yearly basis.

Both CentOS and Ubuntu Linux are great choices.

I would rate CentOS a nine out of ten.

I run my personal applications on CentOS.

CentOS is not easy. 

I have searched the command center, but I cannot switch the accounts.

I have been working with CentOS for four years.

I am working with the latest version of CentOS.

CentOS is a stable product.

The technical support is good.

YouTube contains a wealth of information. YouTube is an excellent source of information.

The CentOS website provides useful information and allows you to download the PPS, which is a benefit.

Approximately two years ago, I worked with Google Drive.

I also work with Kali Linux.

CentOS can be easily installed in VMWare and VirtualBox. The installation is straightforward. However, on the server, it is difficult for me to detect errors and check other applications.

It took seven months to complete the installation.

I completed the installation myself.

I'm not required to pay a licensing fee.

If you are an IT technician or an apprentice, I would recommend this solution, however, if you are a regular user, I cannot recommend it because I find it confusing and difficult to use.

I will continue to use this solution.

I would rate CentOS a seven out of ten.

We use CentOS Seven.

The solution allows us to run our personal and business applications. 

Going forward, it would be nice to see how the container orchestration technologies are incorporated into this particular operating system baseline. I know that such platforms as OpenShift exist, but containers would basically be the norm. I want to see how CentOS can take it at the ground level up. 

The performance could stand improvement. 

While the solution is already secure, this could be improved. 

I have been using CentOS for ten years.

The solution is productive. It is good and is not buggy. While I have been using it for 25 years, I feel that it would be a mistake for me to get too attached to any specific operating system, as I come from a security domain background. 

The solution is scalable. 

The installation is straightforward. 

It takes less than an hour. 

One can handle the installation on his own. 

The solution is not subscription-based, unlike Red Hat. It involves recompiled binaries, so it does not come with a subscription fee. 

My role involves the management of security tools. 

I would always recommend the solution to others. 

Our support involves 50,000 servers, 90 percent of these being linux-based. 

I rate CentOS as a nine out of ten. 

We have been using CentOS for web-based applications, containers, and OpenStack.

The most valuable feature is the limited resources the solution uses in operation.

The solution could improve by making the management tools better for the DevOps teams. For example, WebEX and Webstacks.

I have been using CentOS for approximately 10 years.

CentOS is highly stable.

The solution is scalable but not at the operating system level.

Web-based applications are using this solution in my organization which many users could be using them.

CentOS is a free solution.

I would recommend this solution for the server-side.

I rate CentOS a nine out of ten.

We are using CentOS for some of our applications on one single server.

The solution is easy to use but not as easy as Windows.

The solution could improve by being more user-friendly.

I have been using CentOS for approximately five years.

The solution is highly stable.

The solution needs to improve on its scalability.

We have not needed to contact technical support.

The installation is a little difficult.

We have one engineer that does the implementation of this solution.

We are using a subscription-based license option for CentOS.

I would recommend this solution for applications that you want to have high stability.

I rate CentOS a seven out of ten.

The solution has many types of use cases. 

The configuration is very good. It is very easy to configure any application, et cetera.

The current version is stable.

The initial implementation is straightforward. 

The product is free to use.

Previous versions were unstable. 

I've been using the solution for close to four years. 

The solution is stable in its current form. This wasn't always the case. In earlier versions, it wasn't as stable as it is now. Currently, there are no bugs or glitches and it doesn't crash or freeze. However, you do occasionally do still get some unstable packages.

The solution is only really scalable if you handle on-premises versions. However, you can scale it up and down as you need. 

We have close to 300 users using the product right now. 

I've never had to use technical support as everything is pretty straightforward. I can't speak to how helpful or responsive they are. 

The installation is very straightforward. It's not overly complex or difficult. A company shouldn't have too much trouble handling it. 

The deployment is very quick. It's up and running in a matter of minutes. 

I've always handled the implementations myself. I've never used a consultant or integrator. It's easy to handle in-house. 

This product is free to use. It's great for companies with small budgets.

I have a hybrid setup. On the cloud, I'm using version 7.5. On-premise I'm on 8.3.

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten. If it was more reliable in terms of dealing with stability, it would be excellent. 

I'd recommend the solution to other users and companies.
