The most valuable feature by far has been the virtualization capabilities of the operating system.
openSUSE Leap's virtualization features and Podman support for containers make it a robust choice for tech buyers. Derived from FreeBSD, it is easy to use and highly stable. It is ideal for Kubernetes clusters but could benefit from improved Active Directory, Windows integration, console enhancements, and simpler initial setup. A seamless transition from openSUSE Leap for testing to SUSE Linux Enterprise for production would be advantageous.
