Ubuntu is FREE and most safest OS.

  • February 24, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is a fascinating Operating System that is safe and is free from virus attacks, unlike Windows Operating systems.

The server version can be set up to accept windows clients and link to a microsoft network environment, and it offers a wide range of variants to choose from.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I don't like about is that somehow it is not user-friendly. Also, most of the software that I have is not compatible with ubuntu.
We can try running the software using virtual concepts, but these are totally different things.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Since Ubuntu can not take up much space, ubuntu can be installed in any hardware configuration unlike windows.
Even the very old hardware that windows can not allow things like flash drives that can not read at all, ubuntu make them read.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I can strongly reccomend this operating system to computer beginners.

I have yet to find any limitations when using this software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Ubuntu on our cloud server to host our company website and over 20 different online stores for our clients. The openness of the software has allowed us to do all the work in-house and without needing to rely on outside support.

Open Source, stable, and have many libraries for developing web applications and internet servers. Easy to install applications like MariaDB, python, node js, java.

For new users, they need to search the functionality in blogs or in forums like ask ubuntu. And for installing some applications is not easy as one step, sometimes it takes many steps because don't have the installer yet.

I can use Ubuntu Desktop as a workstation OS, it covers all my needs to do my job at work and also can be used every day for browsing the internet or watching videos online.

Ubuntu Desktop can be used for everyone and is easy to use, currently have an ubuntu application store like the app store or Microsoft store...

The OS to rule them all!

  • February 22, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The kind of control that Ubuntu offers in terms of deeper levels of control on my system resources and the ease with which I can do that is next to none. Also, the greater security that one experiences with it is just unmatched!
What do you dislike about the product?
The GUI needs a lot of attention for mainstream adoption as this OS truly has the absolute highest suggestibility rates if that is taken care of. Marketing of any kind will help.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The kind of issues one faces with other operating systems in terms of heavier focus on the graphic side which leads to greater allocation of system resources for the same leads to a slower system and that is something that one does not face in Ubuntu. This leads to better coding and compiling which greatly benefits the development of applications in a faster way.
