Ubuntu is an amazing open source Linux distro.

  • March 10, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's open source, free, flexible, easy to use. It also allows the user to install many windows based applications through WINE. I find Ubuntu and Ubuntu flavored linux distros more intuitive than the Red Hat and SUSE linux distros.
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesn't always recognize NAS drives natively. Ubuntu 20.04 on an HP gaming laptop with an AMD Ryzen 5 processor is not fully supported. It also does not provide a solid use of a double monitor setup. By default when it goes live, the built-in laptop screen is very dim and I need to push the brightness up every single time. More applications are needed that use the Flatpak distro option.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu is a flexible application that allows me to test some windows software through VM without compromizing a windows machine.

Great operating system for servers

  • March 09, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The stability of Ubuntu operating system is one of the best in class for Linux-type systems. We have both our dev server and production server running on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and we are very satisfied.
What do you dislike about the product?
The release strategy of having a new major version each two years forces us to upgrade, but this process sometimes may lead to system failures.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We provide our application in SaaS (software as a service) format, and stability is critical. Relying on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS was a good choice since the downtime of our application due to operating system issues is zero.

Great OS for development, but could do with some more features

  • March 09, 2023

I liked the new features available and the way it feels overall, there seems to be less bugs and issues compared to the previous version
What do you dislike about the product?
It should try adding support for exe applications and running them through Wine is a bad solution
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I like the simplistic features it offers for the users

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

  • March 09, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
> Very fast and responsive performance
> Exceptional User Interface
> Has a wide array of repositories by default
> Headless mode is very well made and is easy to use
What do you dislike about the product?
> Heavier on performance in comparison to alternatives like Debian
> Start-up time seems longer than other OSs
> It Takes a while to remove excess software included.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Server Side OS for hosting various web apps within a closed network. It provides a stable, great platform that works reliably for web development with Apache or Nginx. Additionally, the headless version is very light on performance and saves much on server resources.

Great linux distribution

  • March 08, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I primarily use Ubuntu as my virtual machines running on a server to isolate various software and tasks off of my desktop computer. I like Ubuntu because its easy to use, well maintained. There are also 2 versions, one barebones version that has command line only intended for servers and a full desktop version with a GUI.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you are new to linux some things require command line which can be a bit of a learning curve. If the desktop version is sufficent most things can be done via the GUI. Software availability can be hit or miss on linux so you need to ensure what you need is available.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Provides a base OS for virtual machines to run various services and software tasks that are best isolated from my regular desktop environment. This ensures updates, conflicting software and downtime is minimized.

What do you dislike about the product?
Ubuntu 20.04 focal fossa has still some performance issues, it lags sometimes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I create apps on this OS. The open-source packages' availability is quite good in this OS.

  • November 16, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like everything about Ubuntu because it's the only version of ubuntu that is bug-free and its user interface is the best out of all the versions that are released.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't dislike anything about Ubuntu because it's perfect for me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
While I was using Ubuntu 18 it had a lot of bugs like visual studio crashes in between my work, and BlueTooth sometimes doesn't start, but with Ubuntu 20 all these bugs are fixed so it's best for me.

The best ubuntu version to ever exist.

  • November 01, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I liked ubuntu 20 a lot, and the main reason is that it's free of bugs and, in my opinion, is faster than previous versions. I also tried using ubuntu 22, but it is full of bugs. Hence, I switched back to ubuntu 20 and will use it forever.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't dislike anything about ubuntu 20 because it's just perfect.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
While I was using ubuntu 18.4, it had a bug that prevented me from connecting my device with another device using Bluetooth with ubuntu 20, this problem was solved, and that's why I love ubuntu 20 so much.
