Good first taste of Linux
What do you like best about the product?
The operating systems are very user friendly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Their operating systems are slowly becoming bloated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Coding and security duties.
Ubiquitous for a reason
What do you like best about the product?
The nearly endless customization options that exist for Linux distros in general is just mind-blowing. Coming from Windows, it was very much like switching from an iPhone to Android. Similar but not at all the same.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do wish that it were easier to set up things to run automatically, you're in full control of your system (which is amazing), but at the same time...YOU are in full control (meaning you have to do everything). I also wish it were possible to dial back on the security and incessant password entering and re-entering. Most people are using Ubuntu as a single user on a personal computer, so all the levels of user permissions and whatnot are just unnecessary.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I switched to Ubuntu from a lifetime on Windows mainly to see what all the fuss was about. People either love linux, or they hate it, and I just wanted to give it a go. I still haven't switched back to windows, and I've learned SO MUCH about how computers and software work just by hacking away and tweaking my system to my liking.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be ready to dig in to obscure forum posts and spending many many hours googling solutions to your problems or questions. Good news is that there are a million resources out there to help. Bad news is...that also means that there are a million different answers to the same problem, and none of them are wrong.

Best open source Operating System.

Ubuntu is an widely used Operation System used by the developers to develop many Software. The best thing that I like about Ubuntu that it is open source. Anyone can easily manipulate the internal code of the OS and use it as he/she want. It is free from virus and free of cost. The User Interface of Ubuntu is very easy to use and Understand. The terminal of ubuntu is very cool, you can customize it according to you. As a Software Developer I only use Ubuntu for making my projects and Software.
What do you dislike about the product?
The thing that I dislike about ubuntu is that it is only useful for Developers and Software Engineers. For Non-technical users it is not for that much use as they are not aware of commands. There is also frequent updates come in Ubuntu which irritates me so much. Sometimes my laptop gets heated when I use Ubuntu.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am a Software Developer and I am using Ubuntu for past 3 years. I make my projects with the help of Ubuntu. Recently I made a Machine Learning project which uses OpenCV. Ubuntu makes my work very easy it has inbuilt software and packages for python that can be accessed just by typing a simple command on terminal.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are a Software Developer then Ubuntu will surely help you in your projects, you can easily complete your projects with the help of Ubuntu. But if you are not from technical field then Ubuntu is not good for you, you can use some other Operating System such as Windows.

It is highly recommended for my programmer brothers.
Ubuntu one of the best open source operating system I am using

Ubuntu is providing good support for firewalls which is terminal-based such as iptables and UFW. It will be better if they will provide a GUI based firewall which will be very easy to use.

Awesome Powerful OS

Customizabilty and ease of use is what it makes it stands out. Its developer environment is awesome and I still keep on discovering new things every now and then .

Its slow in bringing updates as compare to Windows which happens quite often.
GUI can be improved more and there should be a standard template so that few applications comes installed by default.
Sometime it gets a bit hard to find softwares to work with it.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was using it my main OS and running server on it. I virtualize few instances of OS onto a single machine.
I consider to be a good alternative to Windows and love that you can customize everything.
