Ubuntu OS: A Powerful and User-Friendly Operating System

  • May 12, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I can declare with confidence that Ubuntu is one of the most impressive and user-friendly operating systems out there because I've used it for a very long time. The simplicity of Ubuntu's procedure for installation is one of its best qualities. The procedure is simple, and the operating system has an intuitive interface that makes setup easier. Even those who are unfamiliar with Linux-based computers may handle the installation process with ease and have Ubuntu up and running in no time.

I appreciated Ubuntu's speed, adaptability, and command line capability the best as a software developer. One of the fastest and most dependable operating systems, Ubuntu can function flawlessly even with relatively basic hardware setups. Ubuntu operates well on a variety of platforms, including desktops, laptops, and servers, thanks to its broad hardware compatibility. Cross-platform compatibility is ensured by the ability of programmers to create and test their applications on many hardware setups.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although Ubuntu is a well-liked and respected operating system, there are a few drawbacks that users should be aware of. For people used to other operating systems like Windows or macOS, Ubuntu, like any Linux-based operating system, may require some getting used to. For people unfamiliar with Linux, learning how to use command-line tools and navigate the terminal may take some initial effort. Although Ubuntu has a sizable software library and supports a wide range of programs, some proprietary software or specialized industry-specific tools might not be entirely compatible with Ubuntu or have limited availability. Also, ubuntu does not support any high graphics-related stuff so for graphics designers and gamers this OS is no go.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have to create a wide variety of computer software and mobile applications in my capacity as a developer. Even though I have a laptop with a modest configuration, Ubuntu is greatly assisting me in finishing my responsibilities. By using Ubuntu as my main operating system, I can manage and build up cloud linux servers with ease, allowing me to deliver applications and websites with zero downtime.

What do you like best about the product?
The best part is the ease of using the operating system. It's the Linux operating system with the best User interface ever. It has good community support as well.

It like most aspects of Ubuntu as an Operating System but it has less number of apps on it's app store directly. Many of the times we have to rely on downloading third party softwares.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is a great operating system and probably the best one in Linux family. It's very convinient for sctipting and development. It was great compatibility with all the Command Line Tools such as Python, Shell Script, etc.
