Fedora Linux vs. iOS

Usually when there is a focus on security it takes away from flexibility. I personally like Ubuntu more than Fedora Linux because the long term support LTS is longer than Fedora Linux.

Indeed, it's super. OS makes it the most feasible item right now on the lookout. It's smooth, and it will not slack even following 3-4 years settling on it. A wise speculation choice for an innovation.

• frequent updates
• DNF as the package manager
• strong focus on security

• User experience is consistent
• Updates to the operating system and apps are seamless and unobtrusive.
• The Messages app for communications is secure and safe from prying eyes.

• Stability. It's good, but it's not anything like CentOS for stability
• End-user usability. It has a few glaring holes here and there with UI/UX

Incentivized

• Some of the security features can get in the way of organizational management, requiring careful consideration of the configuration.
• There are a lot of design choices that are consumer-first that you have to work around with institutionally-owned devices.
• There are some hard limitations, like apps not having direct access to network interfaces for WiFi scans.

This is a personal preference based on working with hundreds of client projects, I prefer Ubuntu over Fedora Linux.

In all likelihood, common users will either already have experience with iOS on their iPhones, or will pick it up quickly. The UI is generally simple and mostly visual. Power users, on the other hand, may feel constrained by the inherent limitations built-in. Root access, terminal commands, and deep customization are not really to be found here.

Lots of help articles online for just about everything under the sun. I have never personally had to engage Apple's support team to comment on their helpfulness.

We are an all-CentOS-shop, but we've done a number of things with Ubuntu and Fedora. Most of the production CentOS machines are only there because prior to that Fedora helped to blaze the trail to get there. It's been a very good platform for testing our new ideas. Ubuntu is similarly positioned in our organization, but Fedora stacks up well in our environment.

iOS is way beyond Android in terms of centralized management. It is way more fleshed out in terms of features, and Android management has all but been abandoned at this point. iOS is still behind Chrome OS, particularly in an educational setting, but there are genuine tradeoffs that might make it a better fit for a given organization, and in fact, we do regularly deploy both iOS and Chrome OS devices.

• It's been mostly positive. We don't spend a lot on R&D stuff, but Fedora [Linux] gives us a chance to gauge where we are at in comparison to where technology is headed

Incentivized

• Positive as far as cellular usage, phone tracking, and security for our users.
• Negative as far as battery replacement on older phones.
• Costs would be similar to android phones so security/simplicity is our main point here.
