User Testimonials
	ClearOS	Oracle Solaris
Likelihood to Recommend	ClearCenter No answers on this topic	Oracle Oracle Solaris is great due to the fact that it actually is meant for high-end servers. Supports a wide range of hardware. The Stability of the solution is great. The documentation does not support some solutions, and there are no other options. Most of the product is still command-line, despite the fact that they've got a graphical user interface in some areas. For some reason, core administration is still done via command-line.

Alternatives Considered	ClearCenter No answers on this topic	Oracle Oracle Solaris is Scalable, have a good patching capability and secure by default. You want to have something that's up and running and stable, something that's not going to crash. But if we do have an issue, we can get somebody for technical support who can help us work through the problems. Incentivized LUIS TOLEDO GIRON Oracle DBA Read full review
Return on Investment	ClearCenter No answers on this topic	Oracle It just runs like a top, this mean TCO is low We've not had issues with Solaris running on Sparc. Reliability is above reproach. Incentivized Verified User Read full review
