Excellent operating system for your daily needs
What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu being an open source operating system based on Linux is an outstanding piece of software. It gives me the tools I need to do basically anything. I have Chrome for web browsing, Blender for 3D modelling ,LibreOffice for office tasks, GIMP for art work and photo editing, and a whole lot more!
Things look different as compared from other operating systems but the common functionalities are present. In all honesty, it is a breeze to use Ubuntu and it will help you become more productive in the long run.

What do you dislike about the product?
Design-wise, Ubuntu does look amateurish. It looks totally odd with some default icons looking a bit aged. The design aspect does not go in flow with the latest design trend. The bubble like application launchers in the Launcher looks odd compared to Windows.
The color scheme of Ubuntu can make it look weird at times. Overtime, the look of Ubuntu can make it look boring but the customization of Ubuntu makes up for this.
Sometimes, Ubuntu has a slower booting time and sometimes lags depending on the system it is running on.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu gives us flexibility, speed, and raw power we cannot find in Windows. Ubuntu speeds up the development process as well by providing us developer tools out-of-the-box. Ubuntu with its kernel supporting a lot of devices makes its deployment to other computers an easier chore.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are considering to use Ubuntu, do take note that some quirks you are used to Windows will not be present. This might alienate you at first but you will get used to it overtime. Also, an i3 with 2GB RAM is enough to run Ubuntu.

Ubuntu MATE
What do you like best about the product?
I've been using the Ubuntu MATE flavor for the last weeks instead of the regular ubuntu with the unity interface. The MATE interface is very easy and light, and far more customizable than the Unity, which makes it's use more fun.

There are not many things to dislike in this Ubuntu flavor. I think that the only thing that I miss are the hot corners that I used to use on the regular Ubuntu or in the Linux Mint.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04 on two my work laptops. For about 5 years with Ubuntu I have never regret that I switched to this OS. Everything that I have done in this period of time was under this operating system. After Docker appeared - usage of this OS becomes a lot easier and more comfortable.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are choosing between Linux and non-Linux - try Ubuntu, it will break all the stereotypes of the complexity of Linux. It is very easy to start with Ubuntu while it has a lot of advanced configurations if you would like to use them.
If you are choosing between different Linux distributions - try Ubuntu and you will haven't got any problem with hardware, software, libraries, etc.

Fine for the desktop
What do you like best about the product?
Desktop offering is best in class, easy to install and use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Package manger is still based on deb files. Long term support isn't that long. Lack of package review introduces more updates more often and less stable packages.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Server OS platform. No benefits realized, moving back to the Enterprise Linux product offering from the North Carolina technology firm.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't do it. Enterprise Linux is the bess option

my technical review for ubuntu
What do you like best about the product?
ubuntu is my first experience with linux so far,I liked the user experience when using the GUI, it was outstanding and I didn't expected it to be this easy and smooth, another thing here for me coming from windows is that I'm not forced to use any antivirus to work safe on my computer.
What do you dislike about the product?
till now ubuntu is still not satisfying me with gaming, all linux I think, however there is interesing games that are playable on ubuntu, but I'm still missing the awesome games on windows.
another issue that I think ubuntu still missing is the app store, I can tell that ubuntu will be more powerful with more bigger app store that offer easy way to download the apps instead of using the terminal and synaptic which is still scary for me.

In my work field (telecommunication) ubuntu is the most common used between my colleges around the world as it support lot of advanced application that serve in the field.
