The Best Operating System For Beginners in Linux.

It is a free software package with an excellent program. you are doing not would like a license to use ubuntu. It doesn't need the user to be a school geek to use it. The user in spite of victimization of the terminal he/she is in a position to use GUI. it's conjointly a secure program, which suggests that the user doesn't ought to install associate antivirus. it's customizable every and every single component from the instant you put in it. it's potential to run it while not putting in it employing a virtual machine. for many operational systems, the user must restart their pc for the updates to be put in which may extremely be time expensive, with ubuntu you are doing not ought to restart it
What do you dislike about the product?
It is not appealing to most users, it's just like the program was solely developed for under developers since they need higher blessings than the other user mistreatment it. Middlewares like Cpanel isn't supported by ubuntu. It focuses additional on sudo by default and forgets the root account. To run most programs the user has to understand the terminal and use its commands.

I am using as a light server to run my network
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Come up with a better GUI such that all users even those who do not understand technology are able to use your product.
Solid, fully supported operanting system for the casual user or the enterprise
What do you like best about the product?
Over the years, Ubuntu has risen to the top of the linux stack due to it's solid release model and their superb support of the product. Having tried other flavors of Linux in the past (such as Centos, RedHat, Arch), I find Ubuntu to provide the easiest and most comprehensive deployment of the Linux environment. Their desktop experience is among the most well-maintained distributions out there. I personally like the debian-based apt package management approach, with their support for community-maintained PPA repositories. Another feature I love is their netplan-based approach to networking, which makes automated network configuration a breeze.
What do you dislike about the product?
One of the things I dislike are the changes in choice of installer for servers. The minimal installer has worked well for many years. The new one has introduced a number of problems that server administrators shouldn't really have to deal with. Also, it might seem a little like nitpicking, but Ubuntu is not exactly the leanest distribution out there. All things considered, and where we are in this day and age in terms of hardware, I suppose it becomes a non-issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I maintain a number of internal servers with applications used for collaboration in development. Over the years, we have tried to streamline our setup. With the introduction of docker into our environment, we have been able to really accelerate and solidify the way we handle our apps. In my opinion, Ubuntu is one of the best docker host OSes. I understand that there are leaner OSes for docker, such as alpine, arch, etc...but Ubuntu is really one of the best supported. It literally takes 5-10 minutes to install a new Ubuntu server, install the docker subsystem, and voila, we have a new application server, which we can trust to continue to be updated for the next 10 years (in the case of LTS versions).
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for an easy to maintain OS to host docker services, Ubuntu is your choice.
Fully useful free from everywhere!
What do you like best about the product?
This is basically based on open source so i got every extension or every software free of cost over the internet.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI is not so optimize.
Need to be like window and get optimize so we can get better results.

Friend Operating System for Developers
What do you like best about the product?
Very secure operating system & it respects users security rather than any operating system. Ubuntu is the free. You didn't care about commercial use of this operating system.
GNOME makes life easier for users. Installation is also very simple. Everyone can install Ubuntu. It is highly customizable.
Ubuntu has helpful community which users helps each other. Also if you are user of Windows, you can easily run Windows applications via Wine.
If there is some bug & you reported it, be sure that it will be fixed in next releases. They work very good for such type issues. If you are using Docker or Kubernetes, Ubuntu supports it, rather than Windows. Virtual machines is also good oriented in Ubuntu.

What do you dislike about the product?
I think in future GNOME Software Tool should provide more functionalities than nowadays. Currently it is not more stable also. Sometimes it crashes.
Also it has many problems with hardware devices which it is not easy some hardware to Ubuntu, like as GSM modems, data cards, etc.
Some of softwares like Photoshop & some design tools, are not smooth in this operating system.

Ubuntu Is Great
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of entry and using the software as a developer compared to windows
For basic development and development software, Ubuntu is easy to get started. When I moved to ubuntu, the best thing about it at that point was how easy it was for me to install LAMP in just a matter of minutes. It was also very easy to upgrade too.

Good OS for Developers
What do you like best about the product?
The best part of Ubuntu is the ability to modify or customize the OS according to preference.. and the activity monitor works like a charm to check what apps are using more RAM.
What do you dislike about the product?
Needs more work on the Visual side of OS
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Windows is bloated and macs are expensive.. Also Ubuntu is opensource.. so it a great community to be in.
The Windows alternative you should go to first if you are used to proprietary OS
What do you like best about the product?
Much is made about Ubuntu being OpenSource, but for a lot of people coming from Windows that is a cause for concern because they feel like its an amatuer project. Ubuntu is produced by Canonical an actual company who forked off of the Debian Project, as a result they direct the overall design of the project and work with other projects that they incorporate into their OS. Yes people are allowed to look at the source code and submit changes for consideration, as well as help them iron out bugs. Each year they produce a long term release in April which they offer support for several years; as well as a test release in October of things that will likely be featured the following April. So do not let this arrangement prevent you from switching from Windows.
What do you dislike about the product?
The OS is far less resource intensive than Windows which makes it great for extending the life of aging machines that would have grinded to a laggy mess otherwise. The biggest hurdle you will experience is having to use the terminal to download programs from the repositories, but these are often provided by the software’s creator, so all you need to do is copy and paste it into the terminal and it is no more dangerous than installing it any other way.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I would highly recommend this OS to anyone looking for a smooth, easy to use user experience and doubly so if they are on other hardware.
A better view from your "Windows"....!!
What do you like best about the product?
The operating system experience is solid and is far better experience than what you can get on windows. 1. The UI is minimalist but with great emphasis on ease of use and access.
2. Ubuntu 19.04 is one of the fastest GNOME I've used.
3. The app support is really awesome and with the current updates you can enjoy a lot more games as the graphics support has increased.
4. The whole operating system feels more snappier and snazzy than before.

What do you dislike about the product?
There are still some bugs present from the previous versions like :
1. You can't minimize an app by clicking the app icon instead you need to click on the minimize button to minimize the app!
2. The concept of multiple desktops doesn't seem to work as the app remains open in the current desktop too.

The hefty amount which I was paying for my Windows OS is gone. The support forum is really helpful and content oriented which makes me solve my issues with ease. This was not possible with windows as their troubleshooting doesn't seem to work always and the price I used to pay for support was huge.
The app support of Ubuntu GNOME is increasing day by day and now it supports almost all of the apps from Windows and MacOS.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are ready to give up the name of Windows and the app and graphics it supports then Ubuntu is the answer for you.
It is free and vastly customizable.
It has better security features as compared to Windows.
Best suited for development as compared to Windows as it comes with various programming languages and IDE pre-installed.
It comes with BASH pre-installed a developers paradise!!
My recommendation is if you have been using Windows for quite a time and is fed up with all the bloatware and sloppiness the Ubuntu is there for your rescue!
