Ubuntu server used as a server in a hotel

  • January 22, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The thing I liked most about Ubuntu Server is that it is Linux based which means it has a command line interface. It makes it easier to install or uninstall applications or libraries and it also makes it easier to open directories without having the trouble to manually navigate to directories.

Another thing I liked is that it is very responsive and can be tinkered with.
What do you dislike about the product?
The thing I disliked the most is that Ubuntu server doesn't come with a GUI. Therefore I had to search for the commands to install a GUI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There were Microcontrollers, such as the Arduino and Raspberry pi, that were installed and getting data around the hotel. The hotel wanted the data to be stored and accessed in one location. Therefore Ubuntu server had been installed on an MSI CPU.

A LAMP server had also been installed to create databases and websites for easy viewing.

Virtualbox was used to create a virtual copy of the server for backup.

The best thing it is open source and available for modification and design like our own destros. Fully customizable with control over the settings as we want.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI is little generic and still needs to be modified.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working as server administrators then linux is the one stop place. The command line is the best thing and I feel it has offered me greater control.

Absolutely the best open source platform that comes with only a couple of drawbacks

  • January 21, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Open Source, Easy to use, Quick, Reliable
What do you dislike about the product?
Media volume, appstore, heating, battery
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The first and foremost thing that I like the most about Ubuntu is that it's open source, free and has very less vulnerabilities. It's very much immune to virus and has good reliability. However, I dislike Ubuntu in few cases. For example, it's really hard to use the Ubuntu Software which is like the app store for Ubuntu. I hate to say that the media sound is just bad and there is no way to fix it. It's either too loud or too quiet but there is no middle ground in Ubuntu. Although the speakers are really good, it really struggles to give proper output without giving out too much treble and undesired noise.
One more thing I dislike about Ubuntu is that the launch of terminal is terribly slow first time after turning on the computer. After you launch it the first time, it's quick until you restart.
Ubuntu could really develop a lot in terms of battery performance. My laptop gives 4 hrs+ on windows. The same machine gives about 2 hrs on Ubuntu (I use a dual boot).
The last thing I would like ti touch upon is that Ubuntu overheats the laptop just a little bit at times. I don't know if it's just for me but my laptop runs comfortably at 45-50 Celsius on Windows. However, whenever I switch to Ubuntu, it reaches 60 degrees easily without much stress on the CPU.
