Best software ever used
What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is an open source software.it is user friendly. It's good distribution for beginners.one of the most exciting feature of the software is that it can also be used for servers.it is highly customisable and has a software centre full of apps.it is more resource friendly. Can even run on older softwares. It has graphical user interface therefore can even used by non programmers.
What do you dislike about the product?
One of the most disadvantage is that most of the tasks can only work efficiently in command line only. Another one is it doesn't have update like windows. It's interface is not eye-catching. One other interesting thing is that it doesn't have back button.It has some malfunctioning with its wireless connection

I'm using this software for python development. Can be effectively used for python program development.can easily implement machine learning programs. Ubuntu can be easily used for python development than windows. It includes only few line of codes for python development
Perfect OS to achieve full control of your privacy and to work with sensitive informations
What do you like best about the product?
You can control every settings of the workstation where ubuntu is installed, very useful to harden the workstation with an elevated security profiles to prevent unauthorized access to your data and to prevent automatic updated or other types of unwanted communications with external server without having to disconnect the network card from the LAN (very bad if you have to use a network printer, network storage or something similar)
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't dislike Ubuntu, it's free and can help you and your company saving a lot of money without buying professional and expensive firewalls, antivirus and other kinds of software to protect your data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
After our Windows machines were infected by a ransomware corrupting our data we started using Ubuntu and Ubuntu server as OS for some workstations where we process payments data, customers informations and invoices: this was the best choice, no virus infections and no worrying about unwanted opened applications ports.
Opensource Gateway to OS
What do you like best about the product?
It’s easy to install [reinstall], has LTS versions, and The software compatibility is great, nearly every software which officially supports Linux supports natively Ubuntu. The Open Source Community is very large for Ubuntu and is helpful most of the time. The support is excellent and almost all the linux applications are made available to ubuntu first. Applications made on linux on other distros are definitely made to work on ubuntu and thus it has become one of the best platforms of the world. Best part is you can customize the OS as per your requirement as it lets us dive into its UI and other stuff unlike windows although users that do prefer to use windows can use windows subsytem feature and ubuntu in it to do the scripting if they do not want to use the Ubuntu UI. Thus we can enjoy both windows features and Ubuntu features in Windows subsytem mode.t
What do you dislike about the product?
Ubuntu is more commercial and has a history of pulling off antics like the integrated amazon search that goes against everything that free software/open source stands for.Ubuntu tries to do some innovating things, but they end up more like experiments. "Hey, let's throw something only at our user base, and see if it works!" It doesn't work that way with communities, especially with Linux community. Also Ubuntu 18 on the Gnome rework caused a lot of issues for Lenovo laptop users as their bios got issues due to installing it causing many problems to the end users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's one of the best OS that is free for use and has one of the easiest installation needed. Need to install a package, simple install using commands like apt-get install "package name". Windows users face a lot of issues regarding installation of various programs having to set paths and maintain them with different versions. Shell scripting makes it easier to set paths of various software versions. Windows at times needs an executable file for running applications unlike Linux users. Even microsoft has added Ubuntu under Windows Subsytem for linux which is very good to research into.
Ubuntu helps alot of students get into programming in the easiest way possible with the use of bash scripting, and various other tools available for linux allowing a free way to learn amazing technologies without paying too much. Even steam is now supporting Linux users and many games are being deployed which is an amazing step for increasing the user base

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ubuntu is getting a great user interface and improving day by day year by year with each of its release and since it also has an LTS release its never gonna be an issue to learn to code here and deploy something as it will provide support for atleast 5 years to that Ubuntu version of release.

Ubuntu OS
What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu can run on very less hardware requirements with very good efficiency and provides whole access to operating system to the user by root user. No one can execute file in this OS and because of this Ubuntu become more secure than windows.
What do you dislike about the product?
User interface is not so good in Ubuntu which makes it more complex than windows. Many services are difficult to find in Ubuntu and troubleshooting is also a tough task in Ubuntu. Installation of tools and uninstalling the tools is also complex.

We are securing our infrastructure by implementing Ubuntu in our systems which provides more security than windows. It requires less resources than windows. Running Ubuntu server provides us support of DHCP and DNS servers creation on the Ubuntu.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Organizations should start using Ubuntu in their systems for their users so that they can reduce the hardware resources and improve functionalities of resources.
Ubuntu is just the way to go
What do you like best about the product?
I like it MOSTLY bc its how i learned linux. But I've found it to be very reliable for production services. I use BInd9 on it in our production environment and I have never had an operating system related issue. I have used CentOS and RedHat and I always default to Ubuntu. The only reasons i wouldnt use ubuntu is that there are, obviously, some applications that arent compatable with Ubuntu
What do you dislike about the product?
Even though you can "secure" it, there needs to be more built-in security controls. Its kind of a pain to go through and do obvious security configs. However, Our environment is shifted to AWS so there are plenty of CIS images out there so its not that big of a deal.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
so what i found that saved A LOT of money is hybrid DNS between microsoft and AWS Route53. If all you need is forwarding then it works perfectly for forwarding from microsoft to r53. This could easily be done with aws managed ad but a t2.small linux box is much cheaper. For DELEGATING dns zones though it wont work but pretty sweet for forwarding a hybrid dns. example: Developers code pipeline creates r53 records on prem need to resolve, so instead of wasting company money on a managed ad just for forwarding i used Bind9 on Ubuntu and works beautifly and MUCH cheaper. Delegating is a different story though but, again, forwarding dont waste your money on a managed ad, use bind on Ubuntu
Fast and secure Ubuntu
What do you like best about the product?
Most important part of Ubuntu is its Kernel is Linux based which makes it more secure than windows and it is faster than windows also. In Ubuntu we can install packages by simply typing commands in terminal and this is very fast process. Ubuntu is secure operating system because no one can run executable files. We can set permission to files also.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't dislike anything in Ubuntu but many users refuse to use Ubuntu because of its interface which is not that much user friendly and still people like to use windows for their ease. File structure in Ubuntu is not so good as compare to windows. Commands need to be remembered by the user because single mistake in command can stop the whole process.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are running different kinds of services on Ubuntu which make our tasks easier and it is easy to configure those application on linux as compare to windows. Our DHCP server and DNS server running on Ubuntu machine,

It is an excellent operating system.
What do you like best about the product?
It is very easy to work in this system. Without as many restrictions as in Windows. Many other development technologies are designed to work better in Ubuntu.

It is difficult to find a computer that comes with that operating system from the factory.
