The benefit is support and access to their support pages, you can also make general administration easier through some of their tools. But it's pretty expensive

That's why we dropped it. It just got to be too expensive. Yes you got access to their support knowledge base, which was sometimes helpful but if you did a little work you could almost always find the answers elsewhere.

The main thing I liked about RHEL was its stability. Not a lot of churn, and for running any other vended software, support for RHEL was never a question.

Converted everything to CentOS. When Red Hat killed that distro, that was a bridge-burning event. We use Ubuntu now.
