About CentOS Linux is a community-supported distribution derived from sources freely provided to the public on Red Hat or CentOS git for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). As such, CentOS Linux aims to be functionally compatible with RHEL. The CentOS Project mainly changes packages to remove upstream vendor branding and artwork. CentOS Linux is no-cost and free to redistribute. Each CentOS version is maintained until the equivalent RHEL version goes out of general support. A new CentOS version is made available once a new RHEL version is rebuilt - approximately every 6-12 months for minor point releases and several years for major version bumps. The length of time the rebuild takes varies from weeks for point releases to months for major version bumps. This results in a secure, low-maintenance, reliable, predictable and reproducible Linux environment.

Constant improvement/roadmap updates. - Ease of use - Payment process - Customer support - Learning resources - Multiple services - Pickup and delivery - Effectiveness - Speed - Easy to learn POS - 24/7 Customer Service And of course Taylor!!!!!!!!!!! I am a new Laundry owner. We researched and chose Cents as it was a new up and coming company. We were impressed from the start. Every aspect from our first consultation to product set up and installation was top notch. Great customer service and follow through every step of the way. Highly recommend Cents. Fantastic and patient customer service with tech challenged people and staff. Product excellent. Allows us to monitor and check growth, track sales and and improve customer service to clients. It also available to communicate to clients IN SPANISH! Cons Relatively young platform, so sometimes a little buggy, but quick to address it. Pricey. - Intake flow - Dry cleaning - Order minimums - Pricing modifiers -Wish we could speak to DoorDash directly -Need an iOS App!! So far we gave no complaints regarding their products or services. Cents is a new company so there are services that I would like that they don’t have yet. Their CEO loves feedback though and has implemented several changes I’ve requested though so I feel like it’s really more of a plus than a negative.
