My 4 years used Operating System
What do you like best about the product?
I really like it's the way of installing, it's really trivial, even if you're not a technical person, you can easily install and use it. When I decided to switch from Windows to Ubuntu the real reason was that its security standards are really high, as I carry the important files of the company, this was a perfect fit for me.

The one that I really dislike is that most programs are not supported, especially games, so I'm using 2 different computers. When you download something regarding new application, it usually takes to the software center, which is a bit annoying.

Ubuntu: never ceases to amaze me
What do you like best about the product?
I love Ubuntu. It is free, open source customizable Operating system. It is command line based OS, you can do anything using terminal commands. It is based on Linux so it is virus free OS. To install the software in Ubuntu it is very easy just type the commands and you are good to go. The community support Ubuntu has is simply marvelous. Any problem you are facing with Ubuntu I am sure you will get a solution for that.

For a computer science people Ubuntu is must have known Operating System. I highly suggest to at least learn it and get familiar with Ubuntu.
Easy to Use for Developers
What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is most widely used Linux distribution which means there is a lot more support for it than any other distribution. It is easy to use and not provides good GUI for new users as well as CLIs for geeks. Many traditional consumer softwares are available for Linux which means you never really need to go back to Windows or Mac for even non-dev activities like movies or browsing or editing.
What do you dislike about the product?
Every new version of Ubuntu breaks a lot of things. All softwares need to catch up with the new versions. Some versions are supported for short durations only. You noticeably start hitting corner cases. For example new versions of Ubuntu doesn't allow transparent gnome terminal forcing me to look at alternatives. With the advent of cloud tools like docs, sheets, etc. it hardly matters which OS we use for general document editing - which used to be a problem as MS Word and other tools weren't available for Ubuntu
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I generally use Ubuntu for all my day to day professional programming and well as several part time projects. The OS itself along with most softwares that I need to use is free. When I was a student it was super useful as I couldn't afford license - but even now as a professional I find it's more easier to customize my CLI and other tools for optimal productivity.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It could get frustrating to switch too but the efforts pay off well if you are patient.
Best Operating System on the Planet Earth
What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is the best Operating System I have ever used. It is based on Linux, which makes it virus free. I love the terminal of the ubuntu, you can do everything from the command line(terminal). To install any software it is very easy. I love the UI part also, it feels that you are doing some hacking work hehe. Also, there are customization available, you can change themes, tweat the panels and what not. We get all this for free. I love Libre Office in Ubuntu. There are lot of free softwares which will make your life simple as a developer.
What do you dislike about the product?
To install Ubuntu it is little bit tricky and specially if you want to install it along side with windows operating system it is very much hard. Sometimes it will erase all your data and OS.
Also, there are no games for Ubuntu which makes sense in a way, because the purpose of the Ubuntu is different.

modifiable and free operating system.
What do you like best about the product?
Although it is not widely used in companies due to its complexity when it comes to installing applications or configuring some mobile devices, it is an operating system used by many in their homes since it is a free version of Linux and with multiple tools that allows you to design documents surf the internet among other options but has network configurations and different visual themes that make it look very advanced graphics is very vulnerable in terms of viruses or malignant attacks by programs.
What do you dislike about the product?
the use of the operating system is relatively easy and similar to private operating systems, however, when configuring or installing the program, it is a bit difficult for the user since most of them are installed by means of a command console where the user must series of guidelines to install some application. Another disadvantage is that devices such as printers and camera, telephone among others not all have compact software or drivers that are compactible with this operating system which makes it a little dysfunctional.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This operating system is implemented for web server configuration because since it is based on free software, the attacks served by viruses or malware are almost null because it does not influence or does not affect the operating system, which in turn makes the transaction work faster. of information.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
is recommended for users who know basic informatics and programming noce since for configuration and installation of programs you will need certain commands or how to configure it through command lines but it is very safe and you forget about attacks by computer viruses.
