What do you like best about the product?
It's a free operating system either for personal or enterprise computing. It compete against windows and macos by providing complete computing experience, the desktop edition comes with office productivity and it free of cost. In LTS version updating is very easy and straightforward, superfast and opensource, it offers an accesible UI and user feels comfortable navigating the interface with similar experience to what they are familiar with.
What do you dislike about the product?
It has limited functionality, many software and hardware are not compatible with it. Another Linux distro that are better than Ubuntu like Debian. Graphics support is a challenging task.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
the support of community and developers, it gets frequently updated and long term support reduces administrative overhead. It has LTS version is best and os kernel is solid only gets restarted when kernl patches are needed. higher dpi monitor is poor. older wifi driver are not reliable.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
easy to use and best for developers and engineers

Ubuntu one of the best open source operating system I am using

  • October 21, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
the most important thing about Ubuntu is it's using the Linux kernel. I am a big fan of open source technologies and ubuntu is providing that. I am able to use lots of alternatives to proprietary software on Linux. Graphical User Interface is also awesome.
What do you dislike about the product?
Ubuntu is providing good support for firewalls which is terminal-based such as iptables and UFW. It will be better if they will provide a GUI based firewall which will be very easy to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using ubuntu to demonstrate the use of server solutions such as web server apache2, FTP server that is vsftpd to students as educator. I am using lots of other solutions on ubuntu such as WPS for documentation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If You are switching from the windows operating system to Linux operating system then ubuntu is the best os to start with. The graphical User Interface is very good. Should give a try.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Customizabilty and ease of use is what it makes it stands out. Its developer environment is awesome and I still keep on discovering new things every now and then .
What do you dislike about the product?
Its slow in bringing updates as compare to Windows which happens quite often.
GUI can be improved more and there should be a standard template so that few applications comes installed by default.
Sometime it gets a bit hard to find softwares to work with it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was using it my main OS and running server on it. I virtualize few instances of OS onto a single machine.
I consider to be a good alternative to Windows and love that you can customize everything.

Best Linux distro I've ever used

What do you like best about the product?
It's largest community where we have answers for every problem. Large set or developer across from the world with different mind sets. It will result in new ides from everyone which will make ubuntu more Powerful
What do you dislike about the product?
There are lot of distros in linux. Which will make more confusing personally.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is most useful for system administration, networking and for its tools. And most importantly it's terminal with lot of features we can handle if we are good in command line.
