Most trusted, fast, lightweight, command-based desktop. I have a repetitive strain injury & this desktop is perfect for me as I could use less mouse and more commands.

I loved this desktop a lot. Nothing I can think.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I mainly was doing software development using Java, Android, Python, and also building and deploying the code as SDK.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For people who love the command-based interface, this is the best desktop as it is secure, reliable, open-source compared to other desktops. Most tools are downloadable from the Ubuntu Software Center for project management or personal use free of cost.
Ubuntu for development
What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is the most popular product for development, it's easy to use and with the terminal, users can work and improve their skills. It's very fast and use less memory that expected
What do you dislike about the product?
I think there is no concrete something that I dislike, maybe it's not comfortable in the first time to use a terminal for work, but after some time you can adapt with it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The most common problem that I solve, it uses docker for my application, before used windows and it's very difficult to work with docker, but with ubuntu it's easy and fast

What you are a developer and want to learn many things with terminal work, or security, and when you work with the cloud, I think it is the best way to start it with ubuntu
Best Distro Ever, From Home To Enterprise Cloud Vendors
What do you like best about the product?
one of the best distros, I've been using it for more than 4 years now, as a DevOps engineer in each and every move I take ubuntu as my base image, the one and only reason for that is, is its simplicity, stability, community support and open-source! I never had complaints about it.
What do you dislike about the product?
If I have to complain I would say compatibility for games and graphics cards support but hey if we compare in the previous year every release it is improving a lot so not many complaints I have about it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I needed a distro that is supportive in every way in every step of my moves and it must be smooth to use, and as a DevOps engineer, it is more than enough for me to use it in every way it supports me from building applications to using webs, basic utilities etc.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're worried to try it out directly, you can try it in a virtual box and decide but I would say at least give it a shot, it won't let you down.
Ubuntu has become the corporate de facto standard for Linux
What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is well supported, stable, and its popularity attracts developers to do more on the platform. It can be used for standalone application use but is also essential in creating target builds for embedded devices. It is also free, a tremendous advantage for individuals versus Windows or Mac OS.
What do you dislike about the product?
Even with years of experience with Linux, I sometimes struggle with the installation of applications. Specifically, there are several methods of application installation depending upon which distros are used. In some cases, the installations require me to search for the exact method to perform depending on how the application is packaged.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu is our host platform for embedded Linux builds.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Plan your installation. Consider the hardware resources, memory, storage, etc. that will provide the performance you will need.
Ubuntu, a viable alternative to Mac OS or Windows
What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu works well on computers not supported by Mac's security updates. It works on computers that have started getting slow because of large operating systems. I like the adaptability of the user interface. I like the updated software package manager. I like the open-source tools I have come to depend on. The ongoing support from Ubuntu for older distributions means I can install it and keep using it for years if it is working well. I like the expandability and ability to use other flavors of Ubuntu like XFE. With recent cloud-based solutions for Microsoft products, I no longer find myself wishing I had a windows machine for the newest Microsoft Office suite. I find myself using Ubuntu or one of its derivatives with more and more confidence as each new version is released.
What do you dislike about the product?
Very little. Occasionally, I will turn to a derivative of Ubuntu that has been optimized to work with graphics cards or other specific hardware. Otherwise, troubleshooting things like why a specific button on a laptop keyboard isn't working or why the sound isn't working with Bluetooth can be time-consuming.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Ubuntu Linux whenever I can, for home computing, higher education, community education.
Ubuntu is a great choice for a desktop operating system.
What do you like best about the product?
I like how intuitive the interface has become with the new Unity desktop environment. I also like the other available desktop environments, such as Mate, KDE, and Gnome. I also like how easy the application installer has become.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not sure if I dislike anything about Ubuntu as a server or desktop operating system.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In helping a friend with their HP Stream computer, we found that the minimal storage space on the device left almost no room to download updates or save very many files. I believe the laptop had a 32G hard drive, and Windows was taking the majority of it. After installing a minimal Ubuntu desktop installation on the machine, all of the functionality worked, and there was around 20G of free space.
Loved ubuntu for its performance
What do you like best about the product?
Handles the CPU usage accross applications.
Better than all existing linux based OS. Simple in use than rest of OS.

If you are moving from Windows to ubuntu and when you will start using it , it will be boring.But after some time you will be habitual of that.
Best linux operating system
What do you like best about the product?
I have been using the Ubuntu operating system for a long time for doing all my development projects. The main reason is that it is free to download, and also lots of free apps are available. It's incredibly stable, suffers from no annoying pauses or unexpected crashes, and has a clean, attractive interface. It never strains or never more annoys. If your machine has even fewer resources, then lightweight versions of Ubuntu Linux distributions are available for you.
What do you dislike about the product?
Ubuntu has not got a user-friendly interface. The LibreOffice in-built software is not as good as Ms office. This lacks in solving or debugging minor problems as one needs to install a few extra packages, and it requires some effort.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use the try ubuntu feature, as it can run without installing i:e for testing. We can run it from a DVD or a Pen Drive, and hence it acts as a portable OS to be used on systems for which we are not sure about the security status. Its performance is also better than other operating systems, and it is free.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend this operating system for working in the best development environment with great support.
Best Linux Ever
What do you like best about the product?
I like that it is open source and has a large user community
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that I have older versions running and it is not easy to upgrade

We use Ubuntu to serve our pharmacy customers a consistent and reliable product
The Go-To Linux Desktop!
What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu proper is on the forefront of new technologies on the Linux desktop
What do you dislike about the product?
I wouldn't mind if Ubuntu had a rolling version of its distro but I understand that is not Ubuntu's place in the Linux world
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Gnome 3 is on the cutting edge of the modern Linux desktop, using it gives you insight to the future.
