I don't mind Windows Servers - have been running them for many years for all critical web hosting, RADIUS, mail, etc. Key to Windows servers is configuration and lockdown - only run minimal services, good firewalling, don't overload, etc.
Are you running Dude on x86 ROS or on an RB?

I hate having Windows servers to support, it may just be me but I feel they always cause more problems then they solve - ESPECIALLY in time. I really hate the storage issues, though. Backups have to be done manually - keep that in mind!

Dude from time to time would just stop responding for no real reason and we had to bring down the router to get it going again. We had it running at that time on a router that wasn't critical, but became real inconvenient to reboot. It got to the point that it was becoming a daily thing so we dropped it on RouterOS and went back to WinXP. If I go back to RouterOS it will be on a dedicated RouterOS system just for Dude. We never figured out what was going on with it when it would quit responding - worked with Mikrotik support a little bit on it but we weren't interested in spending much time on it - we just moved on to a different setup. That has been a couple of years ago so things may have changed since then. We also would lose all history when we restarted RouterOS, but I think that was because it was not configured correctly, or because we were running it on an RB433. At any rate it probably wasn't a big deal to work around / fix if we had spent some time on it but I just decided to move it back to an XP box and go on.

I don't think it was performance - had more to do with features available or something like that. I know I moved off of RouterOS back to an XP machine.
