We performed a comparison between Oracle Linux and Windows 10 based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Operating Systems (OS) for Business solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is easy to use."
"Oracle Linux is a secure solution."
"It provides for stable Oracle deployments."
"It helps us to create users and groups. We can also plan on the access that will be given to them. I use it for identity management during the installment and configuration process. We use it to start or stop processes and services. Another use case of the solution is post-opening."
"The product is 99.99% stable."
"The solution's technical support team answers all our queries."
"We are using the firewall for intrusion prevention, and it has performed well."
"It has a good amount of mount points."
"Some things that I like about Windows 10 are its GUI, its performance is good, and it has many features."
"It is flexible and it is easy to use."
"The Windows Store concept, in my opinion, is valuable."
"Windows 10 is a pretty standard platform. It does its job."
"Everyone uses Windows 10 and they are very familiar with how to operate it. You don't need to do intensive training."
"Windows has significantly improved its performance and stability over the past seven or eight years. In the earlier days, issues were more challenging to resolve, but nowadays, most problems are easily fixed."
"We use Windows due to the fact that the system is good for us and for our information system."
"Windows 10 is stable, but you need to install system updates constantly and download new antivirus definitions to avoid getting into any trouble."
"The solution could improve by giving the client or customer more control."
"We would like to see the cloud setup to be evolved, to allow for setting up of clusters of the operating system for this solution."
"The Oracle Linux graphical interface could be improved by fixing its occasional freezing on personal home laptops."
"I would want Oracle to explore more of Kubernetes and micro services."
"The licensing price could be better."
"We'd like it if it was a bit more secure."
"What we found in moving from Oracle Linux 6 to Oracle Linux 7 was the whole interfacing with the application and the fact that operating had all changed, all the commands had changed. You need to be aware that there is some kind of training, some kind of handover required for your technical guys, understanding different ways of interacting with it. Bear that in mind."
"It does not have any reporting on attempted intrusions."
"It would be nice to see more robust security features in the next release."
"It would be better if it were more stable. It will also help if Microsoft improves the user interface in the next release."
"The interface could be more friendly."
"The security should be better on the solution."
"Linux is more secure, and, although this solution has come a long way, it would be helpful if they could continue to develop the security aspects of the product."
"While the stability is okay, it could always be better."
"Windows 10 could be improved by providing a data recovery application default. This is the most critical thing I have ever figured out in my career. If you accidentally deleted the data from the machine—the local machine—there is no way to get it back unless you install a third-party application. When your machine is connected to an IP domain, sometimes you won't be able to install a third-party application because it becomes a compliance issue, so you can get in trouble. Windows 10 should provide a data recovery solution."
"The cost of Windows 10 is a bit high. They should work to make it lower."
