openSUSE Leap Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Senior Manager at Cognizant4.5I test servers with openSUSE Leap before deploying them with SUSE Linux Enterprise in our office. The BTRFS file system for snapshots is invaluable. It's cost-effective compared to Red Hat, although switching seamlessly to SUSE Enterprise could be improved.

Judicial Technician - Specialty Computer Operator at Tribunal Regional do Trabalho da 4ª Região - Porto Alegre/RS4.5I use openSUSE Leap as a secure operating system for servers due to its stability. However, configuring my video card is challenging due to limited documentation. Better integration with Windows is needed. I previously switched from SolarWinds because it was outdated.

Maintenance Specialist at Tecnomatica5.0I use openSUSE Leap for DevOps, especially with containers in Podman, and find it easy to manage servers compared to other tools. However, improvements are needed in the console, automation, and application integration. It's a worthwhile investment.
