Ubuntu - Friendly OS

  • October 06, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is open source and free which attracts most of the users beacuse of this. It also provides windows like interface which makes easier for the windows users to shift from windows os to ubuntu OS.
What do you dislike about the product?
Ubuntu interface is slow compared to windows. Its front end takes time to load and has minimal design in the front end. One who dont have grip in unix commands will find difficult to use ubuntu initially.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu is open source and free which saves money. Hence our most of the clients servers are ubuntu based machines. Since ubuntu requires minimal hardware, it is very effective. Also it is secured and flexible.

Free, customisable and the most coherent Linux distribution

What do you like best about the product?
Absolutely stunning performance, has a very structured and elegant interface that is easy to use and has rich driver support. Plenty of customizable features and easy to update drivers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Though Ubuntu is very user-friendly, it can be very difficult to troubleshoot issues, even basic ones like webcam usage. Moreover we wish it came as an OEM option pre-installed on most devices, thus leaving third party apps out for reach.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Most secure for my work applications that used to relate with network security and running test cases for on-board chip validation was a breeze on ubuntu as the software is very light on most configurations

Oustanding, Well maintained, Well supported

  • September 24, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is one of the easiest linux distro's one could find when it comes to updates. Regular updates make it an even better choice infact for both personal and business users.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of support/documentation related to installation on some old machines (prior to 2010) makes it difficult to install ubuntu. Otherwise, it is still one of the best distros when it comes to installation on latest hardware released after 2010, especially when it comes to virtualization ubuntu is the best and highly recommended.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For someone related to IT, Web or Software Programming, ubuntu is the first thing in Linux that comes to mind, as it offers a variety of options and ease of accessibility. Ubuntu Desktop is any pro-Linux users first choice.

Experience in using Ubuntu Server

  • September 21, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Almost everything that came with 18.04 and then 20.04 were fantastic. The migration of our virtual production servers from 16.04 to 18.04 and now recently 20.04 was very smooth.
What do you dislike about the product?
1) Sometimes, it has been observed by my team and me that the network configuration files structure is not streamlined; that is, the netplan and other YAML files may be checked.
2) GUI was an issue (in the past) that is no longer a concern after we can seamlessly use KDE and other environments. It is understood that a server should have a minimalistic GUI.
3) If someone can work with NVIDIA and get the patches for 22.04 worked upon with DPU Bluefield-2 Cards.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1) It helps us manage large High-Performance Computing based clusters with Parallel File Systems.
2) We are trying to understand RISC-V-based architecture, and we have identified Ubuntu Server as the suitable one.

What do you like best about the product?
I have been using Ubuntu Desktop for more than 4 years now, I really like how Good and rich it feels every time, it comes with the Gnome desktop environment which is eye candy. Bringing you the LINUX with a good configuration for beginners.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not ultra-light , if we upgrade to higher versions, the OS generally gets a little bit heavy so you need better config system. Maybe just a tradeoff with good features and looks, but it never dissapoints. It so good, you can't hate it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu Desktop is my favorite Operating System in my personal Dell Vostro device, It brings me the power of Linux in my everyday life, making my work life fast and simple.
