    Windows Server is a server operating system created by Microsoft that is based on the Windows Vista kernel and includes network features like imaging capabilities. It has advantages of being compatible with the Windows environment and having a GUI interface. However, the Vista kernel has proven buggy and it is more expensive than alternatives. Novell Netware is a server operating system developed by Novell that pioneered networking technologies and focuses on giving work to servers to speed up network communication. It has benefits of compatibility, price, and being a networking pioneer. However, it uses a command-line interface and may not be fully compatible with non-Linux systems. Overall, for advanced users needing strong networking capabilities, Novell Netware is assessed to be the better software

    Windows Server is a server operating system created by Windows. This is based on the Windows Vista kernel, and therefore is built similarly to Windows Vista, but with many network specific features like imaging capabilities.

    Pros

    Cons

    Windows kernel, and so is very compatible The Windows name is quite reliable GUI, so it is easier for inexperienced users to learn

    The Vista kernel has been proven to be buggy Much more expensive

    Novell Netware

    Company / developer: Novell, Inc. Working state: Current Source model: Closed source Initial release: 1983 Latest stable release: 6.5 SP8 / May 6, 2009 Available language(s): English Kernel type: Hybrid kernel Default user interface: Command line interface License: Proprietary Official website: www.novell.com

    Netware is the server operating system that South Western uses. With it, Novell has innovated and revolutionalized the way that computers communicate to the network, by giving more work to the server, and less to the terminal itself, therefore speeding up the communication between the terminal and the server, and ultimately speeding up the network.

    Pros

    Cons

    Can be used in tandem with a GUI Has been a network pioneer for a long time Very compatible Cheap

    The interface is a command-line interface, and therefore requires a more advanced knowledge of networking It is based in Linux, and so may not be completely compatible

    Final Thoughts

    Novell has been an industry leader and innovator in networking for as long as it has been in business Windows is a big name in computers, but hasnt concentrated much on the networking end of things For advanced users, Novell is the better software
