290 Suse Testimonials

“SUSE is our preferred Linux distribution. We run our mission-critical SAP applications on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for SAP Applications, so we know from experience that it’s a secure, stable, reliable platform. We also enjoy a long-standing relationship with the SUSE team, who are always there for us to provide advice and support.”

"The relationship we have with SUSE has enabled us to be successful with our customers."

“The open source and hardware independency aspects of Linux are attractive to us, and of course the freedom to modify the software fits with the University’s ethos.”

“Getting real-time business insights is a huge advantage for SAGAFLOR and will help us to remain a leader in our industry. Our positive experience with SUSE also paves the way for a wider move away from Red Hat Enterprise Linux to standardize on a single high-availability, high-performance platform across all systems and environments, ensuring simplified operations. This will help us simplify IT processes and reduce operating costs.”

“Setting up a system optimized for SAP software used to be tricky. Thanks to SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for SAP Applications, we can deploy a new SAP system 40 percent faster than before with Red Hat Enterprise Linux.”

"Having chosen the Linux route in principle, we chose Fujitsu PRIMERGY servers and ETERNUS storage with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server because this operating system is certified for SAP applications, and because there is a very large user community that has successfully deployed the SAP and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server combination on Fujitsu PRIMERGY servers and ETERNUS storage."

“As SUSE Linux Enterprise Server can be installed on any industry-standard server, it keeps our options open for the future. The combination of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server and the Fujitsu PRIMERGY servers has improved transaction response times, enhancing user efficiency.”

“We considered that the Linux environment would be much easier and lower cost to support than a proprietary UNIX solution. We also wanted to avoid vendor lock-in to specific hardware. This combination justified the potentially more difficult migration, which in practice was completed easily within one week.”

“The service from SUSE is excellent: we can always find the help we need. Our technical staff found the SUSE training to be highly effective, and quickly become competent administrators of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. For the broader business, the introduction of the SUSE technology has meant reduced costs together with improved service availability and stability.”

“Running SUSE Linux Enterprise Server on the mainframe means that a few skilled people can manage many servers.”

“Using the SAP-certified SUSE distribution of Linux gives us confidence that our systems will continue to work reliably, which is a key concern in our industry. And where we encounter any difficulties, the support from SUSE is excellent and the response very timely. With SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for SAP Applications, we can raise a support ticket through SUSE for any kind of issue in the whole SAP stack, without needing to decide for ourselves where the problem lies. This integrated support offering saves us time and effort, and helps to ensure faster resolution.”

“YaST is extremely convenient and highly user-friendly—we really value the graphical interface, which makes it quick and easy to install and configure new virtual servers. In general terms, we have also found the SUSE documentation to be of very high quality, which makes it easier for us to resolve minor issues for ourselves.”

“The OS image created by Netflex using SUSE Studio is lean and mean—there’s no clutter to slow the local machine down.”

“Our success as a business depends on our ability to quickly react to customer orders. We determined that an SAP ERP solution would enable us to maintain agility as our business grows.”

“In our legacy environment, a server failure could disable our production systems for up to 5 hours—reducing our ability to keep the tight delivery deadlines. Today, if 1 of our servers goes down, SUSE Linux automatically transfers the workload to a secondary system—meaning that we can restore affected production services within an hour.”
