Ubuntu in Industory

  • October 16, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This is a Linux based operating system that makes it more secure than windows and because of this, it provides security to our data stored in it. In this, we can easily install the software in Ubuntu by the terminal using the package file.
What do you dislike about the product?
File supported in Ubuntu is very less and it does not support NTFS file formate because of this our window user faces some problem while sharing the file with Ubuntu users. The user interface is not that friendly in Ubuntu many times we have to search google to find services.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Ubuntu for managing our network infrastructure to handle traffic on our network and to monitor activities performing on our network. We created a network monitoring tool using Ubuntu and it is working very well.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would like to recommend Ubuntu to other users also because it is a very useful tool for their organization for the testing environment to run Linux based application on it.

Ubuntu; Lightweight operating system with multiple tools.

  • October 14, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like Ubuntu a lot because it is an open source operating system, with a powerful Linux-based system, with multiple tools, among them is the application update quickly. This software is lightweight but with great potential which is perfect for limited computers too. It has all the benefits for the university and the office.
What do you dislike about the product?
Only it should improve the graphic quality and be more accessible to users without knowledge in the area.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu has been very useful for me to work from home and on my job site, it doesn't make changes. It is one of the best options that offers security in the protection of files, which allows simple tasks to be carried out in the office to graphics, therefore I have realized that it is very beneficial in all areas.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend using Ubuntu for those users who want to experiment with free software. It is virus free and offers easy access to all applications. You have nothing to envy Windows.

A very convenient OS for developpers

  • October 11, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As a developer i've switched to ubuntu 2 years ago and since then i never got back to any other OS, because ubuntu helps you to install any development environment with simple command lines, and with a whole community behind to help you in case of installation errors.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing i dislike about ubuntu, what will be preferable is supporting more games
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use ubuntu for python development, and recently blockchain simulation. What i've managed to solve using ubuntu is running a docker simulation which is not 100% supported by windows.

Best OS for developers

  • October 07, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Free and open source operating system with powerful system built on Linux is what Ubuntu is all about. It is so easy to use even when you are switching from Windows. There are no long running unnecessary jobs running in backend, less chance of getting attacked by a malware and free to use license is why I switched from Windows to Ubuntu.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes there is this annoying message when I boot up which says, "System program problem detected" which doesn't provide any troubleshooting or any way to fix the problem.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu is my go to Operating System for both work and home PC. Its simplicity and nice UI and fast extfs file system makes it a great OS for a developer. Since a lot of IDE uses many small files to perform tasks such as compiling, debugging, extfs does the job faster than ntfs file system which significantly improves speed of development.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Once you use Ubuntu you don't go back to Windows. It's simplicity is what makes it best.

The amount of freedom for a developer i.e. best functionality in an operating system with the ease of use.
What do you dislike about the product?
The lack of daily apps like video players or other standalone apps which are not related to development.

Ubuntu has made python and C++ development really easy. We are able to focus more on challenging tasks rather than solving OS related issues.

Ubuntu is the Linux operation system totally free and open-source software. the interface is very user-friendly. Ubuntu is that the system is supported on an ongoing basis and very often there are updates and security patches.

some of the modern(popular) games don't support Ubuntu OS. sometimes graphic quality is low. Linux is the software limitation that exists because many of the applications that we have in Windows do not exist in Linux.

a great and a near to perfect operating system

  • September 24, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is a great Linux based operating system that is very stable and secure. It is also free and open-source. Moreover, Canonical is trying to make ubuntu better year after year. In fact, every year there is a new stable release. ubuntu provides a really long Long Term Support that can reach 5 years (Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, for example, has an LTS period of 5 years ). Also, ubuntu has a large community base and very good documentation. ubuntu has a large software base. In fact, most of the available software has an installable ubuntu package. Also, it is very easy to use and play with.
Ubuntu updates are smooth and not aggressive.
Most known software run smoothly on ubuntu (Docker, Kubernetes, Openstack, chrome, Firefox, VirtualBox, VMware...).
Ubuntu also gives to users the possibility to customize the system
What do you dislike about the product?
Adopting a new kernel version is very slow. In fact, the Ubuntu developers need a "lot of time" to use the latest longterm kernel version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu helps in different phases (from a software development point of view) :
- In the development phase: using Ubuntu to develop a piece of software makes your life easier thanks to th tools, editors, CLIs and IDE that can run on Ubuntu.
- In the test phase: Ubuntu provides great tools to test a piece of software and makes it easier for developers to test their software
- In the production phase: Ubuntu is a very stable and secure operating system which makes it a serious candidate to run your software in production.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ubuntu is the right operating system to start with. It is very easy to use, secure, fast and not resource demanding OS.
