Linux Operating System

Dell, Linux and You

Using Dell systems and Linux®, you gain a standards-based solution that can lower your Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). You can expect better performance and lower energy costs that help you deliver more value throughout your company.

You can count on Dell and the Linux OS to deliver:

  • Value – A recent Forrester Report (Open Source Paves the Way for the Next Generation of Enterprise IT)said cost reduction was the primary motivation for Chief Information Officers (CIOs) using open source, with 87 percent saying that their cost-saving expectations had been "met or exceeded."
  • Innovation – Multiple parties working consistently and simultaneously to enhance functionality help keep Linux at the leading edge of technology.
  • Quality – The close-knit relationship of the Linux community contributes to faster updates, patches and overall improvements.
  • Choice – Open source enables the enterprise to avoid vendor lock-in and therefore have more options among applications and hardware.
