Features & Benefits

Migrate at your own pace
Many of you want to move between platforms, but business realities slow you down. You may be dealing with IT resource limitations or application migration challenges. Even training costs can keep you from making the move to SUSE® Linux Enterprise Server as rapidly as you'd like.

This offering takes the pressure off. This is a three-year subscription to SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. It lets you transition over a three-year period while receiving technical support for your existing Linux deployment.

Pamper your mixed environment
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server is the only Linux distribution that Microsoft officially recommends for customers who want to use Windows and Linux together. SUSE Linux Enterprise is also the only Linux platform that SAP endorses for customers who want to run their SAP applications on Linux.

When combined with Microsoft Windows, you get the unprecedented flexibility of running both SUSE Linux Enterprise Server and Windows Server, knowing that both operating systems will work together seamlessly.
Cross the support bridge
As part of this offer, Novell will provide you with time-limited support for other common Linux platforms that are found in the data center, including Red Hat Enterprise Linux. The Expanded Support offering lets you choose SUSE Linux Enterprise Server now, and receive the technical support you need for your existing environments for three years.
