CIS Red Hat Enterprise Linux Review

  • July 22, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Love how this software can collaborate with others to accomplish its project. This software is easy to use. The PDF that they have provided on the Benchmark Information is well written and everyone can start coding from scratch. When running the software I like the fact that the derivative will no longer be a CIS Benchmark.
What do you dislike about the product?
I used this software couple of times before and I have to say, that some of the errors that they spit out is very different then its competitors. Also pricing on its storage fees and others are definitely on the higher end. Not too much experience as I mentioned before, but I have to say this is not my favorite software to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Again, I do not have too much experience, but I am trying to solve my work problems. The benefits I have realized is that it is computing software that is capable of doing a lot more things to make our lives easier.

protein ligand binding can be programmed in linux- ideal for drug discovery!

  • October 31, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I doubt drug discovery would be anywhere near where it is today without Linux. I am starting to look up compounds that have been verified as highly specific to proteins. I can't look at how these compounds would look when bound to the protein without the linux terminal. In the old days, pre computer, people would literally have stick and ball plastic models to physically model protein-ligand interactions and predict good fits. There are millions of compounds- this is simply inefficient!
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not going to recommend something like this to most people because very few people understand and actively use the linux programming language. It is the most difficult language to learn in my opinion.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The compounds, once downloaded from pubchem, a compound database, can be converted to pdb files using the linux terminal. I can then, using an accessory application, view these ligands three dimensionally in "vmd." Linux has commands for me to use to determine which compounds can be used for drug discovery based on their size/molecular weight and chemical composition. This drastically narrows down the list of compounds we have to work with.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
(a general note- the screenshot uploaded is not from the linux system itself, but the steps we use for utilizing the terminal, since a screenshot of the system itself with me logged in is just a screenshot of a general terminal)
