A reliable, powerful, and user-friendly operating system

What do you like best about the product?
I love how stable and secure Ubuntu feels right out of the box. The interface is clean, intuitive, and customizable to my workflow. The fact that it’s open-source with such a strong community behind it means I can always find support, new tools, and creative solutions. Plus, it runs quickly even on older hardware, which makes it super versatile.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only drawback is compatibility. Some specialized or proprietary software, especially in industries that depend heavily on Windows-only programs, isn’t always available on Ubuntu. While there are workarounds with Wine or virtualization, it can take extra time and tweaking. Occasionally, hardware drivers also require manual setup, which might feel intimidating for new users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu solves the problem of expensive, restrictive software by giving me a fully free and open-source operating system that doesn’t compromise on performance. It makes my workflow more secure and efficient, with far fewer system crashes or forced updates than I’ve experienced on other platforms. It also helps me learn more about technology since it encourages tinkering and customization, which has boosted both my confidence and productivity.

Clean, stable

  • September 10, 2025
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy install, solid LTS releases, and great hardware support out of the box. apt has huge repos, so most tools are one command away. Perfect for dev work—Docker, Python, Node, C/C++, Git, SSH—everything runs smooth. Updates are predictable, docs/community are strong, and it’s lightweight enough for old laptops or cloud servers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Snaps can feel slow and a bit confusing vs apt. Some packages lag behind cutting-edge versions. NVIDIA and a few Wi-Fi chips still need extra love.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
can spin up dev and prod boxes fast with apt, Docker, and systemd. Same stack on laptop, VM, and server.
