Best open source opreating system for tech savvy people

  • August 12, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The Ubuntu is still a open source opreating system and free to use. Secondly it is very light os and required minimal hardware requirement to run. Most importantly it is much better from the security point of you. for IT professonals, web developer it is best platform to work who loved to work with commandline instead of GUI like windows.
What do you dislike about the product?
Still all the software are not available for ubuntu that is the minus point and you have to be familiar to Linux commands to make smooth working. And some software like photoshop can't be used on ubuntu. Execpt these issue it is best opreating system.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In an It company choosing ubuntu cut the very large cost on windows licence and it helped us to create a secure environment due to its valid and good security policies and also get rid it of from many virus attack on computers.

An OS that can run on minimum hardware requirements

  • August 10, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The most helpful thing about ubuntu-desktop is
- need minimum RAM and storage
- less bootup speed
- no bloatware
- great community support
- there is no need to pay any type of license fee as it is opensource
- all the opensource applications are supported
What do you dislike about the product?
Downsides of ubuntu-desktop are
- sometimes the OS is stuck while booting up and have to restart forcefully
- that it is not game friendly os, many games are supported but still most of them are not supported
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The most and foremost problem ubuntu-desktop solves is that we don't need to purchase license and it is free and open source. It can give a new life to an old system laptop that cannot run windows properly. Ubuntu desktop will run smoothly on an old system.

Ubuntu Server from a VPS perspective

  • August 10, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ease of setup.
Tons of available software.
Huge community support.
Ready to use server stacks.
The majority of the big players support Ubuntu out of the box.
Good security.
Regular updates and patches.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are few issues like broken pipe that happens when we connect. There should be an easy way to resolve this OR there should be good documentation to resolve this.
Ubuntu should release customisable images for LAMP stack for python stack and for Java stack so that we get a minimal OS compared to a bloated one.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A robust scalable server that we can rely on for our hosting needs.
A good computation box.
A secure environment to host our websites and webapps.
A complete solution for hosting needs.

Powerfully versatile

  • August 08, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Combine the usability of a good interface, and being able to manage things from the console with all the versatility that Linux can offer as an OS. That you can be managing a server, a laptop or a desktop without noticing the difference.
What do you dislike about the product?
Office automation programs are very limited compared to those with a proprietary license. More robust programs are needed in this sense so that the OS can be used more widely in the business world.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is much safer than other operating systems because there are no viruses that overshadow its performance. In addition, it is much safer in terms of information consistency and access.

Fast and Easily Approachable OS - Ubuntu

  • August 07, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about Ubuntu is its accessibility through both GUI and terminal. One can do amazing tasks by just accessing the OS through terminal and everything is now available through GUI also including the Software center in comparison to Windows. Moreover, it's open source and free.
What do you dislike about the product?
The upgrades every 4 years are hardware dependent. The EOL support should be extended up to at least 6 years and it should be readily available for usage and should be promoted in organizations and schools and colleges.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solved many problems starting from my college to the current date today. I started with python development in 2015 and up to now, I am using it. I had also installed a robotic operating system and much other development was easily approachable with Ubuntu OS.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Actually in my previous organization, there was a crunch of budget. So we did tested few OS, but ubuntu comes out to be superb. I fulfil our company application which supports linux flavour

Light, powerful, open source the developper's dream

  • August 03, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
What I prefer in Ubuntu is the command line universe. Indeed the main part of the software available on Ubuntu exists with a command line mode. As a result, you are quicker for all the tasks you do.
What do you dislike about the product?
The software marketplace of Ubuntu is not as huge as other OS. However, we can notice that a lot of online software gradually allows Ubuntu to be competitive in a lot of fields.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu is my personal and working OS.
