Ubuntu the most complete operating system based on Linux
What do you like best about the product?
What I like most about Ubuntu is that it allows you to update applications with just one click, as the operating system updates are somewhat more complicated but it really is very comfortable because unlike other operating systems it is not necessary to reinstall the entire system with each new update.
Another aspect that I like about Ubuntu is the security it offers to surf the internet and run applications, mainly because I do not need to use any antivirus like in Windows, the antivirus is not only annoying but also consumes CPU resources, for this very reason Linux-based system such as Ubuntu consumes much less resources therefore it is ideal for limited computers in this regard.

What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest problem that a Linux-based system has is when it is used as a personal system and it is about using applications that use closed source libraries such as Photoshop or Directx. In this case you can use solutions that allow these applications to work but normally the common user can not carry it out due to its difficulty.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
At work we have been using Ubuntu as the main system for a long time since the costs of Windows licenses were an unnecessary expense because most of the work done can be done from the browser using cloud-based applications such as Google Sheets. On the other hand, using Linux, we feel more secure in terms of our sensitive information, since most malware is created for Windows.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Of course! Ubuntu is an excellent alternative that you must take into account not only because it is free but also because it is a very safe system and this is something very important in the business world. In addition, the main applications used to work as LibreOffice or Firefox can be used in Ubuntu natively.

Ubuntu is the best Linux based system
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about Ubuntu wich I like the most is that we can use it at work for free because operating systems based on the Linux kernel do not require a license or subscription to use them.
What do you dislike about the product?
Linux does not directly support Windows applications, so it is necessary to go to alternatives such as Wine, a Windows application emulator that does not always work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In my company, we have been working with Ubuntu for a long time, since the applications we use on a regular basis are multi-platform, so we do not have incompatibility problems.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ubuntu is an operating system that I recommend mainly if you are looking for a secure environment and that is updated on a regular basis so that we have access to the latest versions of the software without risking the security of our computer and the network in which it is located.
A powerful operating system not for everyone
What do you like best about the product?
Gives total control of the operating system. You can change whatever you want and make it configurable. It can be also used to monitor Network traffic and get full control over it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Isaac has Advance it can be tough for no voice users to understand and they can easily break things which can go out of hand. Also it lacks UI experience and not that pleasing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am a developer so I primarily use it for development and also for network monitoring. At my work I use it for AWS instance handling and spend most of my time with the terminal.
Ubuntu or Windows 10
What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is good to use but if you are in habit to use windows then, you need to learn it. It is free to use so don't need to by it.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is like windows but there are very few features. It is also not effective and flawless like windows. You will not get much application which are compatible to this operating system.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Ubuntu and application compatible issue is there so we are using Ubuntu compatible software.
Excellent OS
What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is easy to set up and use. It takes less than 15 minutes for me to train even an inexperienced computer user in it. Being a Linux operating system, it is powerful and versatile, with superb performance, running well on both new and old hardware. Ubuntu is incredibly reliable, running both our servers and our workstations. It's free and open source, supported by a vibrant and experienced community of users and developers. Ubuntu can also be customized to meet the needs and tastes of any user; it comes in many flavors, from the incredibly polished Ubuntu default with the GNOME desktop environment, to the incredibly flexible Ubuntu MATE, to the lean and clean Xubuntu.
What do you dislike about the product?
None directly. Some software doesn't work on Linux, but that's because software makers choose not to support it. (Most software has open source replacements though)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easier maintenance than other operating systems, no cost for upgrades or installation on additional computers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider what software you need before installing Ubuntu. The Linux ecosystem is like a box of LEGO bricks, meaning you can build exactly what you want, but it also means you may need to research what all features and programs you need before you achieve the best possible configuration. Some software also doesn't work on Ubuntu, such as Microsoft Office or Adobe Photoshop, but many open source alternatives exist to replace proprietary options in most cases.
Ubuntu the best Linux based system
What do you like best about the product?
Personally, what I liked the most about Ubuntu is that we can use it at work for free because operating systems based on the Linux kernel do not require a license or subscription to use them. If we use the official Ubuntu version we can enjoy a desktop based on GNOME (although we can choose from several more), this desktop is the closest to a Mac desktop that I have seen in a Linux system but personally I think more a combination of Mac and Windows in terms of aesthetics.
From a Linux system we can really do the same things as under Windows 10 but we will probably need alternative applications to do so since Windows programs (.exe) do not work under Linux unless they are cross-platform.
Regarding the performance in my experience is superior to Windows, I think that in large part is because Linux systems do not require Antivirus and this service usually consumes many resources when used under Windows.

What do you dislike about the product?
While it is possible to operate almost any Windows application in Linux requires a level of knowledge that not all users have or if they have it is too long to configure everything since it usually requires some guidance found on the internet to be able to use the application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problem that Ubuntu solves us is that of being able to save the cost of the license of WIndows 10 which is very expensive and with an unaffordable cost for companies that are not very big, using Ubuntu is totally free and once you are used to using it you will notice the difference. The main applications that we use like Firefox or Chrome are available in the Ubuntu repositories.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Linux, in this case Ubuntu manages resources much better than Windows so if business has several old computers improve your speed I recommend you use this operating system. Also if you are looking to save money is an excellent alternative, although it will take you time to make the change, surely the economic situation of your company will improve.
Best OS ever
What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is very useful mostly as an IT guy . I learnt more about networking using Ubuntu more then using other OS in the business .Its simple ,very flexible,very advanced and needs a set of skills to use so as to obtain the result needed.
Coders are certainly a major user base for Ubuntu. One advantage of Ubuntu for programmers is cross-platform development; projects can be deployed across a wide range of Ubuntu platforms (such as desktop, server, IoT). Further, coders can create Snaps, or packaged apps with all of their dependencies, which are compatible with many distros other than Ubuntu. Another perk is that Ubuntu supports nearly every coding language you throw at it, including Python, Ruby, JavaScript, Perl, C, and C++. And since Ubuntu is open-source, you can easily drill down to low-level areas of the operating system, too.
That said, Ubuntu is not just for people who argue with compilers all day. Businesses and governments are also potential user bases, since Linux tends to be highly stable. Additional user groups are the hobbyists and regular desktop users. Raspberry Pi, the Intel NUC, and other home-brewed IoT devices are all prime candidates for Ubuntu.
Also Ubuntu is a better in programming also and has simple ways of coding and also nice sheets .
also Ubuntu as an t guy helps you manage your platform of computers or network for a better performance.
I love it.

What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing that Ubuntu doesn't give you easily is game access. Ubuntu takes alot of process so as to enable games in your device. Most of the time you have to use wine window loader so as to enable games but also sometimes it wont work .
And also if the game plays it will have a lot of glitches during launching.

What do you dislike about the product?
· Interface: it is known to be a "heavy" interface, not suited for old computers.
· Indiscriminate usage of "sudo" and "sudo su" in all web tutorials.
· Maintained by a Company: the bad thing is they evolve the distribution according to their interests.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've been using Ubuntu as my general purpose Linux distribution for 5 years. Although it has some problems with the heavy interface, i consider that nowadays it's the best choice to a typical computer user. Of course it is not Windows, but you have music player, web navigator, store for typical apps and it is very easy to use. Besides, you can install every debian-based application with the typical apt-get, so you won't have any kind of compatibility issues.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
First, consider if you want a Linux distribution. Today, Windows is a swiss-knife and maybe you don't need Linux. Then, if you need Linux, before migrating to it, look for every kind of software you need. Not all Windows software is in Linux (although in Linux there is other software that in Windows don't exist). Once you have done all this, don't hesitate and install Ubuntu, it is very easy to use.
Ubuntu, best OS based on Linux kernel
What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is one of the best desktop experiences in the Linux market as it combines an updated Linux operating system to its latest version and makes use of the latest GNOME Shell desktop, which incorporates new features and replaces Unity, the previous desktop system that used Ubuntu. The operating system is developed by Canonical, the most important company in the Linux world.
Ubuntu also has other functions that make it a unique system, for example its dpkg package system that allows access to the Ubuntu application store where we can install any software that we need safely. In this store all the applications that we found have been reviewed by the canonical team so they are free of malicious software or bug.
The interface of Ubuntu is also very nice and features the system because it uses a renewed icons theme and along with its brown and purple tones make a very nice desktop system, also Ubuntu uses its own font based on "Open Sans" which is very beautiful.

What do you dislike about the product?
-One of the problems of Ubuntu in my opinion is that when they release a new version they do it with very outdated software (usually 4 months) since they have to test it before launching a stable version, this is good for security but a problem if you want to have your system as updated.
-Linux does not directly support Windows applications, so it is necessary to go to alternatives such as Wine, a Windows application emulator that does not always work.

I recommend using Ubuntu in those businesses that look for a safe and free operating system to perform their daily activities in your company. Ubuntu is an operating system that does not require many resources so it can work on any computer, even the oldest.
The best Linux distro for end users with low end machines
What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is one of the most user-friendly Linux distributions in the world. It makes it very easy to use, understand and manage. It also doesn't ask for high end machines, which is a very good point if you are in a low budget.
What do you dislike about the product?
The things I don't like in Ubuntu are not Ubuntu's fault, but the developers of third party products. It seems that they don't care about Linux at all and you end up using alternatives that are not always as good as the original solution.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Final customer with low end machines. As it is free, we have no problems when an employee of our customer leaves the company and we need to renew his OS credentials (money-wise). We just deactivate his account and create a new one with no problems with licenses and thing like that.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Please have a LPI certificated professional, otherwise you'll have network/AD problems when using Ubuntu. It is really user friendly but the network configuration company-wise is not so easy.
