What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is a computer operating system based on the Debian GNU / Linux distribution. It is distributed as a free and open source software, along with commercial software. It is named after the South African Ubuntu Philosophy. I guess you imagined this being the first point on our list. But the fact that Ubuntu is free goes beyond many customers’ need to not pay for stuff .I think Ubuntu software is a problem-less operating software.It is open source software.Basic knowledge is required to use but very easy to use.The convenience of being accessible to all users is a special advantage.It is an advantage to have no cost for software that does not have slow and no virus threats.
What do you dislike about the product?
When installing some software, you will need to follow the same procedures.In general, some software may have difficulties and only open-source software such as Ubuntu should be used.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ideal to use with internet connections. Can be used to work with internal networks. Viral effects are low.Computers that use other operating systems tend to be slower, and Ubuntu does not show such slowdowns.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Although Ubuntu looks like a hard operating system, you will find it to be very easy to use. Try using.

Ubuntu Review

  • November 18, 2019

What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is a very simple software to install and also update when one needs to. Unlike a few software of its kind, Ubuntu can be customized by an individual user and it works properly for both Windows and maCOS operating systems.Another advantage Ubuntu comprises of is that is it free to download and it also comes with a variety of not paid for apps. Ubuntu’s interface is also very attractive compared to its other competitors.
What do you dislike about the product?
Ubuntu sometimes freezes in some operations and its capability may vary from the different operating systems which are Windows and maCOS. The idea of many desktops running is useless because once a file is open on one desktop, it still runs on the same desktop even when transferred to another desktop. Where is the button to show the desktop? It is no where to be seen.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Just like a good operating system, Ubuntu is very simple to install apps and various files. I have been able to carryout my documentations in Ubuntu. Apart from that, It is easy for me to use various softwares on Ubuntu compared to any other operating system.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For any computer user, both software and hardware, Ubuntu is a very efficient, effective and trusted operating system and i would recommend anyone to use Ubuntu without any worries.

The best Operating system

What do you like best about the product?
Light weight. There are like so many flavours of ubuntu that you can use for your specific purposes. As you already know it's a linux based OS if something breaks you can actually fix it for yourself or there are already hundreds of solutions online fixed by the community. Faster than any typical Windows systems relatively.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it breaks. I would not say it is unstable but sometimes they do break. There are not much options on drivers for third party hardwares. Rest assured I don't dislike much in ubuntu.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were using Windows in our team and when we shifted to ubuntu we saved a hell lot of money. Also since it's lightweight and super faster than windows the productivity increased.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Install Ubuntu and I guarantee you that you won't go back to Windows again.

If you are ever thinking about switching from Windows this is your go to system.

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, excellent support and a large community behind it. Many software systems that support Linux require Ubuntu Linux to run. Also very modern system
What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest problem I have with Ubuntu is the lack of backward compatibility with some past versions. Sometimes after a major update past versions may not be supported again and thus if you are using those versions you will stop receiving updates after a while. I suggest you have a good backup policy if you plan to run some production system on Ubuntu or get the LTS system.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I basically use Ubuntu to do machine learning with Tensorflow. I have received many benefits in terms of speed and ease of use while doing so. Ubuntu is an excellent Linux system and highly recommended for some kinds of performance computing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're getting into Machine Learning or Linux this the first place you should be looking at. Ubuntu is user-friendly and performance-oriented. It is the open-source contender to the Windows operating system.

The best OS for software developer and system administrator

  • November 08, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best and useful tool in UBUNTU (and LINUX in general) is the bash shell. For me this is indispensable for any IT consultant/developer. I can connect through ssh to the server we use to read logs, deploy software and start web/application servers. I can search file easly and quickly by find, or words in a file by grep. I use VIM every day every time to open text files
What do you dislike about the product?
The only problem is that some useful software are not compatible with UBUNTU
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it everyday at work, and I cannot work with any other OS
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Learn how to use bash shelle and you can do anything
