I have a simple rule that determines is I use RHEL or CentOS in my work environment. Does the software running on this machine require RHEL in order to have vendor support. An extension of that rule is whether nor not Red Hat would support the specific use of this server in my environment.

That is exactly the mindset that I use in determining which to install. If my vendor will require RHEL in order to support my system, that is what I need to use. For in-house apps, lab servers, and/or vendors that don't care what I run, I will usually install CentOS.
