1. WINDOWS VS LINUX

2. Users who are considering making a change from Windows to Linux
often want to know what are the advantages and the disadvantages of
each of the operating system. Here we are going to list some of the most
common topics that are compare and which one is better:
• Distros:- While Windows has a more easy structure, with
progressive iterations divided by tier, Linux is more customizable.
Distros, that are the name given to hundreds of different Linux-
based operating systems, can vary wildly in design, sophistication
and functionality. However, as it is an open source, it can be
modified and altered by anyone to create their own custom versions
of the software. Which is great!
• Installation:- As for the installation Linux is easier because the
distro can be installed from within the lived-booted OS or simply
run live for as long as toy need. Although, polished distros require
more technical know to how to get up and running. By contrast
windows installation is more time consuming and requires a
minimum of user input compare to many distros

3. • Security:- Linux security is one of the principal reasons for its
popularity among the IT community. One of the most effective’s ways
Linux secures is throughout their privileges that help to avoid virus
attacks while cyber-attacks targeting Windows are much more likely
to succeed.
• Support:- Linux has a large amount of information to fall back to, as
for tips, tricks, tutorials, forums etc. from other users and developer,
because they don’t have a very cohesive support structure, it makes it
very simply for anyone with access to google, write their problem and
find the solution. While Windows has a more effective structure of
support which make it easy to access and understand it but there is
not always an answer for everything.
Verdict: Given their different strengths is difficult to choose whether
Linux or Windows is better. The one that will work for your business
depends on how your company operates, and what applications it uses,
so for instance you have to know how does your business operate and
what systems should have.

4. If you have a small business that works primarily in
software then Linux is the best option for you, the
free availability will reduce overheads, and set-up
won´t be too complicated to manage. For a large
business it will be a little bit more complex, but in
the end this change, can bring much more benefits
in your company for example in the security area.
