Businesses love it because every major release is like Ubuntu's LTS releases. RHEL 4 (released in 2004) is still in extended support! I assume their support is good also, but I haven't used that. For me though, I have a bunch of servers running CentOS just because it's extremely solid and stable. The price you pay is that all your packages are a little old, but there are repos to get new software, so I can be on the newest Postgres and Node etc.
