User Testimonials
openSUSE Leap
Likelihood to Recommend
It is a great system for running applications that are not "Windows only". It works very well with application servers like Tomcat or Glassfish. In the development environment, it can run many IDEs like Netbeans for Java or VS Code for Python. It is a great platform for running Docker or Kubernetes. It supports also full virtualization so Windows can be running inside a virtual environment to share the hardware cost.

openSUSE Leap has wide variety of already precompiled software packages in default repositories. It even has some specific packages in official repositories that are not available in other Linux distribution repositories. It is also very stable and reliable distro - we can predict when new versions will be released and when we should make system upgrades.
