    Stable performance enhances operations, but improving interface and customization is necessary

    Reviewed on Jun 24, 2025
    Review from a verified AWS customer

    What is our primary use case?

    My main use cases for Oracle Linux are ERP. I am using Oracle Linux for ERP purposes.

    What is most valuable?

    I find everything useful in this tool, as we are currently using Finance, Material Management, and Supply Chain. All of these features are beneficial.

    What needs improvement?

    Oracle Linux can be improved by making it more user-friendly.

    The interface and some features need improvement. The interface is very important. Sometimes, there is a very lengthy process to generate a single report. The customization also needs development.

    There should be more customization allowed for the system. There are some limitations as we cannot customize the system according to our needs. We have to use the standard features which are not always suitable for our business. Despite these limitations, we continue to use it.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have been working with Oracle Linux for the last four to five years.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    I consider Oracle Linux to be stable software. It is stable, proactive, and secure.

    The biggest advantage and benefit of Oracle Linux is its stability, proactivity, and security.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    Regarding scalability, I would rate Oracle Linux between five to six.

    How are customer service and support?

    Regarding technical support and customer support, I have contacted them and would rate it 8 out of 10.

    How would you rate customer service and support?

    Positive

    How was the initial setup?

    It is not critical to set up Oracle Linux.

    What was our ROI?

    When considering the value for money with Oracle Linux, I believe there is definite value.

    What other advice do I have?

    I have no experience with Oracle APEX or with Oracle ODI, but we are planning to move from Oracle EBS to Fusion.

    I am not using the DTrace comprehensive dynamic tracing framework.

    I am interested in taking an exam or getting certification from Oracle.

    On a scale of 1-10, I rate Oracle Linux a 7.

    Delivers strong support for AI projects with quick deployment

    Reviewed on May 22, 2025
    Review provided by PeerSpot

    What is our primary use case?

    Since Oracle Linux  is a very light software, it does not take time to deploy unless you have virtuals, or if you have containers you need to set up, which will take additional time. Installing and setting up Oracle Linux  takes very few minutes.

    Oracle Linux is very supportive in supporting my AI-driven projects and workloads.

    How has it helped my organization?

    The applications that we have deployed under Oracle Linux run optimally compared to environment we had hosted previously 

    What is most valuable?

    The most valuable feature of Oracle Linux is managing applications and managing application development on the cloud. It is more secure and easier to manage.

    Oracle Linux is excellent software, and I rate its scalability an eight.

    There are at least 42 people using Oracle Linux in my organization, and we have virtualized some servers where we have deployed eight VMs.

    What needs improvement?

    The area of Oracle Linux that needs improvement is related to updates. If they have updates, it should update itself without logging out your services.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have worked with Oracle Linux for two years.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    I rate the stability of Oracle Linux as very stable, at eight.

    How are customer service and support?

    Oracle has implemented a chatting AI which answers most questions effectively, but getting real customer service takes some time.

    How would you rate customer service and support?

    Neutral

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?


    How was the initial setup?

    Oracle Linux is a bit easy to set up.

    What other advice do I have?

    I have a solution on-premises, and also on cloud for containers and orchestration.

    The price of Oracle Linux is affordable, and you can download it for free. It is very available on the Oracle site, and it is an open solution.

    Based on my experience, I would recommend Oracle Linux to other people anytime.

    Overall, I rate this solution as the best solution at nine out of ten.

    Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

    On-premises

    If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

    User interface needs refinement but serves well for server functionality

    Reviewed on May 14, 2025
    Review provided by PeerSpot

    What is our primary use case?

    I am using Oracle Linux  in the IT industry.

    We configure Oracle Linux  and give it to our customers, which amounts to thousands of people using it.

    What is most valuable?

    The features of Oracle Linux that we find most effective are when we normally use it as a VPN gateway. We configure it and make it an application-level gateway, and we use it for user authentication.

    The main benefits we see in this operating system, apart from the user authentication and VPN gateway, are that we were using CentOS  before. Since CentOS  is stopping support and going to downstream support now, we moved to Oracle Linux for that matter. Otherwise, we were satisfied with the CentOS part.

    What needs improvement?

    I feel that Oracle Linux should improve to have a graphical interface that would be much more user-friendly, similar to Ubuntu , so that people who want to interface with the Oracle servers can have Oracle Linux desktop on their personal laptops as well.

    I would recommend that those who are planning to use Oracle Linux consider it as a 90% replacement for CentOS because most people would be moving out of CentOS due to those stream and support issues. It is a close match to CentOS, and it could reach out to end users better if the graphical user interface is improved. On the server side, it is acceptable as it is an apple-to-apple match for CentOS, but for end users, people would be comparing it with Ubuntu  or Mint, so it should improve its user interface.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    We have been using Oracle Linux for about a year.

    What was my experience with deployment of the solution?

    I have not faced any challenges or difficulties with Oracle Linux during this time.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    I have not had any stability issues with Oracle Linux.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    I have not experienced Oracle Linux handling large-scale deployments; we just do a single node or double node deployment as of now.

    I haven't used the scalability feature of Oracle Linux to evaluate if it is scalable enough for my environment.

    How are customer service and support?

    We normally use the community support for Oracle Linux as of now, which is my impression on the support they provide.

    I have no complaints or recommendations regarding community support.

    How would you rate customer service and support?

    Positive

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    We switched to Oracle Linux because support is not available for CentOS; the patches won't be available, which is why we have moved to Oracle Linux, and on my personal laptop, I mostly use Ubuntu.

    How was the initial setup?

    It is easy to set up Oracle Linux compared to CentOS.

    If I were to rate the setup for Oracle Linux from 1 to 10, it would receive a perfect 10.

    What other advice do I have?

    We have customized Oracle Linux, and we use it as a VPN.

    Regarding security enhancements in Oracle Linux, the patches are available, so as and when the security patches are available, we update them.

    We plan to increase the usage of Oracle Linux for now.

    I rate Oracle Linux as a 10 when used on a server, but if I use it as an end user in terms of desktop computing, then it could be a five because the graphics is not as impressive as Ubuntu.

    Provides outstanding performance and resource savings with effective customer service

    Reviewed on Apr 30, 2025
    Review provided by PeerSpot

    What is our primary use case?

    Our clients are using Oracle Linux  for core banking deployment and enterprise application deployment.

    What is most valuable?

    The solution works closely with the operating system kernel, which gives better performance in terms of multi-threading and a distributed database. We work based on Oracle specifications, and whenever there are critical patches and vulnerability tests, we update with the latest security patches. The collaboration with Oracle WebLogic and other Oracle tools enhances performance as well.

    What needs improvement?

    At this stage, we are uncertain about specific areas for improvement. There is support in place by Oracle, which is appreciated. AI could potentially optimize computing resources in the infrastructure side, especially in a multi-tier enterprise architecture.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    We have been using Oracle Linux  for more than five years.

    What was my experience with deployment of the solution?

    The deployment of Oracle Linux is easy.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    Oracle Linux is definitely stable. We are using it in a production environment.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    We have not seen any scalability issues as we are running a considerable volume.

    How are customer service and support?

    Customer service is good, but sometimes there are delays due to the criticality of the ticket.

    How would you rate customer service and support?

    Neutral

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    Previously, we were using other operating systems like Red Hat and SUSE Linux. We switched because we are using tightly coupled Oracle products, and Oracle Linux gives better performance.

    How was the initial setup?

    It is easy to deploy.

    What was our ROI?

    The solution provides the best return on investment. It saves more than forty percent of resources.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    Oracle Linux is affordable because it is open-source. However, if critical support is needed, payment is required.

    Which other solutions did I evaluate?

    We previously evaluated Red Hat and SUSE Linux.

    What other advice do I have?

    Our overall experience with Oracle Linux is very positive. I would rate it a nine out of ten. While support can sometimes be delayed due to ticket complexities, Oracle Linux could benefit from new computing resource optimizations, possibly involving AI.

    Secure environment and seamless integration provide peace of mind

    Reviewed on Apr 29, 2025
    Review provided by PeerSpot

    What is our primary use case?

    We are using Oracle ERP  and Oracle Database , and we have installed Oracle tools and applications on Oracle Linux  in a virtual environment.

    What is most valuable?

    The advantages of Oracle Linux  are that it is secure and provides end-to-end support from Oracle, from the operating system to the application ERP . This gives us peace of mind. Compared to Windows, we prefer Linux to safeguard ourselves from different kinds of attacks and viruses.

    What needs improvement?

    Our level of expertise is not high enough. I had to find someone experienced with Oracle Linux since Windows is easier to learn, and most people have hands-on experience with it. If there were educational programs or certifications locally available, it would add more benefits. Additionally, the compatibility with the newest processor models could be improved. It takes time for Oracle to test and then make it public that a processor is supported. We often have to use an older processor model to ensure compatibility with the operating system and our ERP.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have been using Oracle Linux for the last four to five years.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    Our environment is locally deployed, and there are no performance issues or latency problems. I find Oracle Linux very stable.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    I rate the scalability at seven. Compatibility with the newest processor models takes time, which can impact scalability. Oracle should make the process faster, as we sometimes have to use a previous processor model to ensure compatibility.

    How are customer service and support?

    Technical support is very good. I rate it a nine, keeping one point in reserve for anything that might come up in the future.

    How would you rate customer service and support?

    Positive

    How was the initial setup?

    For the time being, the installation is straightforward. The main task is ensuring compatibility with new hardware, but once set up, we can use a master VM for our virtual environment.

    What was our ROI?

    For us, the return on investment is the peace of mind provided by Oracle Linux. Our team is comfortable using Oracle Linux as it integrates well with Oracle tools, making everything work seamlessly.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    Oracle Linux is affordable. While ERP might be expensive, Oracle Linux and KVMs are not on the higher side.

    What other advice do I have?

    I am satisfied with Oracle Linux and would rate it an eight out of ten. It is a good tool for our small company, and we've never encountered anything we couldn't do with it.

    Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

    Private Cloud
