CentOS has numerous advantages over some of the other clone projects including: an active and growing user community, quickly rebuilt, tested, and QA'ed errata packages CentOS does not provides the RHN style support. It depends upon community mailing lists, forums and 3rd party sites to provide support. CentOS Linux is free but do not get any commercial support or consulting services from Red Hat and lack any software, hardware or security certifications. Also, the CentOS do not get access to Red Hat services like Red Hat Network. If you need access to RHN or support service go for Redhat otherwise CentOS will help you.

On Debian or Ubuntu systems, useradd is a command itself, and you can create users and define options to them using this command, and adduser is a perl script, that uses useradd to create the account, asking you the password, Full-name, phone and others ..

On Gentoo systems, is the same as in CentOS or Fedora, adduser is just a symbolic link to useradd.
