We are using SUSE Manager (which Uyuni is the upstream of) to manage approximately 500 systems.  For licensing reasons, I have a separate Uyuni installation for CentOS, OEL, and openSUSE.
I can't imagine trying to manage all of this without it!  I don't even really do much with actually writing Salt states.  I can accomplish most everything I need to do by registering everything as Salt minions, then using the config channels for push configs.  
We also use it for push-patching.

Have you had a chance to play with Uyuni much?
I did an installation a while back, but other needs intervened and I never did any set up.

That would be my go-to solution as well.  openSUSE Leap + Uyuni is a great setup.  I assume this is for a RHEL clone requirement?

Why not openSUSE Leap?
Do you need more Red Hat equivalence?

I don't like it, be we've been using OEL as a replacement for the handful of CentOS things we have.

Ok, Question for the group. I have a number of CentOS machines in my home lab that I need to replace.  Thus the subject of my email, who is now the true CentOS replacement?

Has anyone tried it?

I have a dev. account with Red Hat, they do give 16 seats, but I like to use something to replace CentOS.
