What do you like best about the product?

Package Management - This is by far the best thing about Debian. It uses the APT (Advanced Package Tool) package manager, which simplifies software installation, updates, and dependency management. The vast Debian repositories offer a wide range of software packages.

Flexibility - It offers different flavors to cater to various needs due to its ease of implementation. Whether you're looking for a lightweight system (like Debian Minimal) or a specialized distribution (like Debian Edu or Debian GIS), there is likely a Debian variant suited to your requirements.

Integration - Due to its well built infrastructure, the most popular Linux OS called Ubuntu is based on it!

Community - It has a large and active community of users and developers. This means ample customer support through forums, mailing lists, and extensive documentation.

Usage Frequency - It is found on a vast majority of servers.

What do you dislike about the product?

Limited Official Support for Non-Free Software - It strictly adheres to free software principles, which means it has limited official support for proprietary or non-free software.

Slower Release Cycle - While the stability of Debian is a strength, its slower release cycle means users may have to wait longer for new features or software updates compared to distributions with more frequent releases.
