    Red Hat
    Red Hat Satellite works amazingly with servers that need more control over their packages. For one or two servers that you're just doing "dnf update" Red Hat Satellite is way overkill.

    Red Hat
    When you're first getting into the platform, the GUI can be a little confusing. It takes a little while to get accustomed to where everything is, and what everything is used for. I highly recommend prior training / classes before diving into the platform. This will ensure a better transition into the platform, and more likely to use more features of it overall due to the new knowledge gained

    Red Hat
    • We have been able to automate the update process to not require after-hours monitoring.
    • Centralizing updates has greatly reduced the overall time servers are down and processing their individual updates.
    • We are able to bring our own RPM packages in and stage them in the same deployment model as official Red Hat packages.
