Usually free things would not be as reliable as, say their paid counterparts, but in this case, yes, it would be as reliable, if not more. However you would do well to study in advance what exactly you need to support before deciding on a particular distro. Each distro has its particular strength and the community would be glad to help you. Be also aware that in India it is difficult to find well advertised qualified linux talent for your queries. If you would be kind as to mention what sort of applications you plan using, I am sure the veteran members here would be eager to give their input. Cheers and peace.
