Efficient and Reliable

  • February 14, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is one of the most outstanding operating systems available today. Its exceptional stability, security, and performance make it an excellent choice for anyone who values a reliable and secure computing experience.

One of Debian's greatest strengths is its robust package management system and vast software repository, which provide users with access to a broad range of software options. This makes it an ideal choice for developers and system administrators who need to work with a variety of different tools and frameworks.

Furthermore, the Debian community is incredibly supportive, and the project's dedication to free and open-source software has helped create a powerful and versatile operating system. The Debian team's commitment to delivering regular updates and security patches ensures that the system is always up-to-date, reliable, and secure, making it an excellent choice for both personal and professional use.

Overall, I would highly recommend Debian to anyone looking for a stable and efficient operating system. Whether you're a developer, a system administrator, or simply someone who wants a secure and reliable platform for everyday use, Debian is an excellent choice that won't disappoint.
What do you dislike about the product?
As someone who has used Debian for several years, I can say that it is an excellent operating system that prioritizes stability and reliability. However, one potential downside is that it may not always have the latest software versions available in its repositories, which could be a disadvantage for users who need access to cutting-edge features and functionality.

Moreover, the installation and configuration process can be quite complex, particularly for new users who are unfamiliar with the Linux environment. Although there are numerous resources available online to help with this, it can still be a steep learning curve.

Overall, despite these potential drawbacks, I strongly believe that the benefits of using Debian far outweigh any downsides. Its robust package management system, extensive software repository, and unwavering commitment to free and open-source software make it an outstanding choice for developers, system administrators, and other users who value stability, security, and reliability in their operating system.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When running workloads on cloud-based platforms such as AWS, it is essential to have an operating system that is specifically designed to run in that environment. Debian is one such operating system that has been optimized for cloud-based workloads, making it an excellent choice for use in the AWS Marketplace.

Flexible and modern

What do you like best about the product?
One of the things that drew me to Debian and which I like the most about it is its broad support from the general internet community. If you need help with a Debian issue, chances are someone has already had that issue and solved it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, there isn't much that I dislike about the OS itself. I'm annoyed when I have to install a few packages on a base install but that's really a personal preference.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Debian allows me to use Linux in my environments which is a great benefit in terms of cost management and security. It also allows me to use and expand my knowledge of Linux tools.

Debian Reiew

What do you like best about the product?
Used Debian Linux servers to configure our environment's SIEM tool (Alien Vault).

It is a free, smooth upgrade and very stable. Very good for developers and very secure.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not many cons to Debian Linux.

Its command line is similar primarily to other Linux servers; however, network configuration is a bit different compared to other Linux versions, that some time confuses me as I am working in Redhat, Centos and Ubuntu as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were looking for an operating system to configure the SIEM tool.

A stable OS that is also cost-effective, easy to upgrade, secure and compatible with AlienVault.

An excellenet and relaible OS (open-sourse) for server side management

  • September 29, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Open-source (Debian GNU/FreeBSD, Debian GNU/Hurd)
The most reliable OS with minimum crash reports
User-friendly and easy to install (GUI, text)
Extensive Hardware Support
LTS versions and cloud images are available

The operating system upholds various 32/ 64-bit PC structures - - including x86, Arm, Chip without Interlocked Pipeline Stages, and PowerPC - - and can run on practically any PC. I'm utilizing this operating system beginning around 2011 and no significant issues confronted. Refreshes/Redesigns are only a tick away. Better than other subordinates of the open source operating systems.
What do you dislike about the product?
A bit difficult for new users. Not for gaming purposes (less supported).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Debian is a cost-effective solution while its opponent windows operating system sets you back a ton
It is very adaptable. It is uncommonly dependable and stable.
It has a strong reconciliation with the predominant programming languages like C, C++, Python, Ruby, and so on.
Security and protection are major components.

What do you like best about the product?
The best part of debian which makes it's awsome and no one can par with debian on it is it's community, it is having such a huge community. If you are stuck anywhere then i\you know StackOverflow is there to help you out.
What do you dislike about the product?
I use to dislike the GUI of debian if you compare to other OS, but since I am a developer I hardly care about it much beacuse it has such a robut cli, but as a user if i think then GUI is not at all good, it didn't gave me that vibe.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Debian for me solved the problem of Dependencies , so I am coding anything an any dependencies error is coming then first thing I do is migrating the code to Debian based destro mostly Ubuntu.

Apart from that I have worked on Kali Linux as well, One thing which debain has done fabulously is thinking about each group and made separate destro according to it. As running any instance on AWS or anywhere I prefer debian because of support.
