What do you like best about the product?
Good user interface, and very clean long-term update support. There are so many open source tools supported in this OS.

Secure Ubuntu version

  • March 08, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that's it's free but still pretty secure version of Linux OS. It's also available on cloud platforms easily. Great alternative to Windows and MacOS if you know how Linux works.
What do you dislike about the product?
I heard the end of support for this version is coming soon. It's not the light weight version of Linux. It takes more time to install this version of Linux vs Ubuntu 20
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I like that it is long term supported and secure version of computing. It's free and highly usable. It was a good upgrade to Ubuntu 16.04 in respect to installation time and security.

Great Solid OS

  • March 07, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As a small web agency offering our clients hosting solutions purely as a convenience, our margins are very small. Being a free OS Ubuntu is a great option for us, that's not only free but also rock solid and relatively secure.
What do you dislike about the product?
Certain aspects can be a little difficult to setup and administer but then it is a complex solution and shouldn't be taken on by a non-experienced person when it is being used as a server open to the outside world.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a free or low-cost server OS upon which to host our client websites and our internal webDav and SMB file servers.

What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu 18 is the most widely used operating system because of its performance, we use this version, and it comes with revolutionary features, and it has more power than the old version; with the help OS this version, we can do better development for the project, version 18 is fundamental so that not used too much memory from our system, so that's why it give more performance to our work and help our team to fast development
What do you dislike about the product?
Ubuntu 18 does not come with too many bugs. I think it has some dependency issues. That's it. We never face too many problems with version 18, and it is amicable, so I can say that I like ubuntu 18 and also recommend it to others, and now we have converted to 22.04 for the latest feature
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In the beginning, we were windows users, and windows came with a user-friendly environment and was a little buggy and hung, so we decided to transfer windows to ubuntu, and it gave us the excellent result, and we are happy with this, and I can say that ubuntu is perfect for the developer and it comes with great power that's why I genuinely recommend ubuntu to developer purpose

A Lovely OS for developers

  • August 19, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I first started using Ubuntu on my laptop with Ubuntu 18 version. It was so easy to use and light weight OS of all. I was facing many issues with windows earlier as my laptop is really slow to use then I shifted to Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. After that my laptop is so fast and no lags at all. So I really recommend Ubuntu for any people who are facing laptop slowness issues. Also it's easy to shift from windows to Ubuntu 18.04 LTS without any data loss. It also boots up faster than any other OS
What do you dislike about the product?
The only drawback with Ubuntu 18.04 LTS is it doesn't have some of the softwares that are available on windows. So to work any of those softwares we don't have any way to use it on Ubuntu 18.04
It would be better if Ubuntu can make something like Windows virtual server to use windows softwares as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
During covid I was doing work from home with my personal laptop. But it's really frustrating because my windows is very slow to work then I changed it to Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and all my issues were gone. I was happily doing my works without any hang issues.
It has many pre installed libraries that are needed for a developer to do his business work

Robust and User Friendly - Ubuntu18.04 LTS

  • June 22, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Simplicity and User-friendliness. When compared with other Linux Flavours, Ubuntu fares much better. Especially this replaces almost all requirements of proprietory Operating Systems.
What do you dislike about the product?
Few small (and rare) technical issues will come up when a computer with Ubuntu Desktop OS is kept running for several days continuously. Those issues are not visible to general users. And such issues are non-existent in OpenSUSE / Fedora / etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In general - Robust, unlike proprietary operating systems.
In particular (comparing with flavours of Linux) - User friendly installation / update / upgrade / maintenance.
Compared with other Linux flavours, Ubuntu has a great number of packages available.
