I would never do it as a syadmin. I'd allow it if I also allowed distros of choice. Otherwise I'd get something with LTS that I wouldn't have to go in and fix so much Everytime a pacman -Syu breaks some dependency somewhere.

Corporate systems can still run CentOS 5. Think about it. Now try not updating Arch for a year.
Christian Gomez
No.
Jack Wood
God no, it's the worst distro you could possibly choose for corporate systems and networks.
Benjamin Brown
It would probably be fine if you use the LTS kernel package and don't need GPU drivers.
Daniel Lewis
No, it's a distro for PCs
Bentley Martinez
get something with lts support.
Brandon Howard
Jesus no
Blake Russell
What happens if you don't update it? Never used it, just heard it breaks a lot.
Christopher Robinson
just use debian
Isaac Reyes
yea if you want to go bankrupt
Cameron Butler
Use Debian stable or CentOS
Oliver Gomez

Arch anywhere doesn't exist anymore. It's Anarchy Linux now
Dominic Smith
Honestly, it works fine for basic server stuff, none of that crap get's frequent updates,anyways.Never had anything but Nvidia and Gnome give me an issue on Arch.It's every bit as reliable as Ubuntu LTS, you just need to pay attention to things a little more. Luckily,Pacman is pretty verbose if issues arise.

People mainly like Arch because of the autistic logo

I have a colleague that uses Arch with KDE on his work laptop. He's had some minor problems with some kernel updates, but never with applications (as far as he tells me).
Jaxon Evans
I only use it to have new stuff and I love the package manager.You guys poop all over Arch, but it's the same Linux you're running, just sooner.

Why place manjaro so low?
Logan Murphy
I put arch linux on usb drive, with two btrfs 500 GB drives for storage for urbackup in a corporation.. for backing up their desktop shit
all because arch has aur package and is easy to manage with no noise
is it the a great distro for corporate enviroment? dont think so
did I do it anyway cuz I could no be bothered with centos or ubuntu server?
sure...
Liam Martin
Only redhat should be used for that.
Charles Miller
If you ever install new packages theres a good chance they won't work cause they'll assume all the other ones are up to date.
Ethan Reed
Circular problem.
Ayden Taylor
Is your friend me?, whatever, i fuckin suffer in this damn distro, EVERYTHING FUCKIN BREAKS, proxychains doesnt work either...

Why not give Manjaro a try? It's based on Arch but the devs maintain several repositories - unstable, testing and standard. Unstable is bleeding-edge - packages are available as soon as possible; this is basically the same as Arch. By default the desktop installation uses the "standard" repository, which simply delays package upgrades anywhere between 1 and 2 weeks and releases them as batches.
I've been using it as a daily desktop driver on different machines for about three years now, and a package udpate has never ever broken anything. Granted, I never used NVidia or Gnome like this person: . From my experience it's stable enough to serve as a server or for corporate infrastructure.
