Best alternative and most powerful Linux operating system

I like that you can customize it so much with different versions of software, such as PHP version or MySQL for example etc.. It's very simple but not too easy if compared some other distro (like Ubuntu). If someone needs something stable just go ahead! The best thing about this distribution would be its stability in use; because sometimes when using another OS there are problems which make me feel uncomfortable while working here especially since we have many clients out side US time zones who…

Pros
  • Its simplicity to work around is great i guess most companies prefer Linux due mostly having more security features than Windows counterparts hence better protection from viruses attacks among others
Cons
  • None

Great OS For Cloud Servers - Open Source & Secure

Best Linux distro ever - super fast performance

The best part about CentOs is that it comes pre configured, so you don't have to configure anything. You can simply install centos with your favorite package manager of choice (Yum/Apt) and then go ahead! It's very easy to use. I just installed it for my friend who has no experience in linux systems. He was able to get everything set up in less than 5 minutes. And yes, he started liking using computers right away without any problems at all.Cent Os is really good if you are looking for…

Pros
  • Easy updates through yuman etc.
Cons
  • Few limitations such as inability do update kernel
  • A little complicated GUI compared other flavours
  • No support by most vendors
