Ubuntu is Love

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like how secure Ubuntu is. Unlike windows, any problem in ubuntu can be solved on our own. They have a great community called askubuntu, where we can ask questions, and it's solved within no time.

Upgrading to a new version is very easy.
It's secure
It's fast.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the fact that the initial setup can be painful for non-ubuntu users. Ubuntu is power-intensive; it consumes too much power. The battery is drained very frequently.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am a DevOps professional, and I need a Linux-based operating system. And Ubuntu stands out among all Linux-based available OSs.
I use it to connect to cloud servers, running python locally for testing my programs. Shell scripting is so easy on Linux. I love it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're into DevOps, you have to use Ubuntu. You'll love it.
