RHEL: The Best Multitool
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about RHEL 8 is its stability and enterprise-grade performance. It offers consistent security updates, system-wide cryptographic policies, and powerful tools like Cockpit, System Roles, and Podman. These features streamline administration, enhance automation, and support modern workloads efficiently.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike about RHEL 8 is the complexity of subscription management and entitlements, which can be frustrating during initial setup. Additionally, certain packages are locked behind specific repositories, requiring additional configuration. The learning curve for beginners can also be steep.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
RHEL makes my job easier by giving me a stable, secure system I can count on. It handles updates, security, and compliance stuff smoothly, so I can focus more on automation and less on fixing random issues all the time.

I like RHEL for the flexibility that it provides with using other open source tools. It also provides great security using SELinux contexts and firewall configurations.

It may not be friendly for first time users. There is a lot of configurations that are handled through command line and knowing the file system structure.

RHEL is providing the base operating system needed for running our applications. We are able to secure the system with firewalld policies, SELinux contexts. The capability of running as read only on the file system adds another extra layer to security to prevent malicious changes to configuration files.
