We develop on Ubuntu and Debian.
The issue with centos isn't that it's centos, it's that by installing it, you're transporting your server 5 years into the past.
We rely on features from newer versions of PHP and rrdtool than typically provided by RHEL-derrived distros.

Centos rocks socks as a webserver (cPanel). I had nothing but issues with Observium.
Doesn't the Observium website recommend Ubuntu? It doesn't make sense to me to install your Observium on something that causes you more work.
The only issue I have with Ubuntu ..... is nothing.

Yes, but everyone thinks they know better. Also CentOS is webscale, or something.

If you're running PHP 5.3 or below, I don't even.
