In addition to CGI, Perl 5 is used for system administration, network programming, finance, bioinformatics, and other applications, such as for GUIs. It has been nicknamed "the Swiss Army chainsaw of scripting languages" because of its flexibility and power, and also its ugliness.😂

Perl5 comes preinstalled on most unix like os and very useful for system admin task. For eg. ubuntu, centos, openbsd, debian. It is very handy for sysadmin and power user.
