None, Linux is better on almost every aspects, I don't see a real IT company using BSD over Linux. Linux is faster and support way more software / hardware. BSD was equal to Linux years ago, but Linux grew up much faster due to his large community and support from the industry.
- cheeseprocedure 14y agoFreeBSD has a simple and consistent upgrade path between major releases, excellent stability, excellent hardware support (on the server side, at least; that's where it matters to me personally), a magnificent packaging and ports system, excellent documentation, an excellent firewall stack (pf), a proper ZFS implementation, a powerful and easy-to-manage jails system, and is used in plenty of corporations, large and small, both as a conventional server platform and as a base for commercial products. It is a well-curated shop, while GNU/Linux is a street bazaar. It is a pleasure to administer. You might want to take a closer look.
