Millions of people use it so it is easy to find information about problems that may occur.

Great OS for beginner and experts alike

  • August 03, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Lightweight, highly customisable. What's not to love about Ubuntu? They have great customer support and it's a generally brilliant OS.
What do you dislike about the product?
Again, nothing I dislike about Ubuntu. Of course it lacks some of the features of OSX and Windows but that's to be expected. That takes nothing away from what it does offer and it covers all the necessary basics.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's not as heavy as Windows and has the customisation that OSX doesn't.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Bare in mind this is a lightweight OS so don't expect the sleekness of OSX.
