What do you dislike about the product?
1.The new Unity calculator app. The old one (ie prior to Ubuntu 10.10) was pretty much perfect. I'm sure there's a reason why it was swap for the ultra basic (and useless) one that's still provided 3 years later.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
every business has serious knock-on effects in the graceful failure department. Ubuntu's Software Centre can be instructed to spit out a simple list of all the apps ("packages" in Ubuntu-speak) you've installed. Any time you need to set up a new machine or recover an old one, you simply feed the list to the package manager and it will fetch all your apps and install and configure them without any further intervention.
One OS that works everywhere without any issue

There are few things that I don't like about ubuntu
1. After installing the OS, you need to update all the packages which take a lot of bandwidth
2. If crashes, difficult to recover the data
3. Few packages are not supported on my DELL Studio 1450
4. Frequent Updates needs more bandwidth

Spend a lot of time learning the ins and outs of the program.
The most user friendly linux distro
What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is the most popular linux distro and because of that, it has good support. There is an entire section of stackoverflow dedicated to Ubuntu. So I like that any problem I run into can probably be solved without too much hacking.
What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe this is just a problem with package managers in general, but apt-get and/or aptitude is just trash.
It breaks all the time. You always have to delete some lock file. Installing software and managing dependencies should not be as hard as it is.
I also don't like Unity, but luckily they are going to get rid of it. I use gnome metacity, and I wish it had more customization than it does.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use ubuntu as a development platform. I use it at work, and I use it at home. Its good for open source work. Most of the time is spent in a browser anyways, so when I am writing code, I prefer the linux environment.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It requires a lot of tweaks, but eventually it will be the best development environment for you.
If you are a web developer, you might consider mac instead.. but ubuntu can be equally great for web dev.
Ubuntu also has some weird bugs here and there, so you need understand the basics of linux, such as mounting, and the grub, and filesystem organization, stuff like that. You can use ubuntu and not be a power user, but understanding these things really helps if you have an issue. Ubuntu can run on really low tier hardware too. If you want a server, I'd definitely recommend ubuntu server

Great OS for Development
What do you like best about the product?
I love Ubuntu. Ubuntu is easy to setup and easy to use. No experience with the command line? No, problem. Ubuntu Desktop makes it easy to use like you were using a Mac Desktop or Windows Desktop. If you are using Ubuntu as your server OS, you will obviously need to learn the command line. This is easy as there are plenty of resources online for learning it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not all software companies put out support for Linux distributions like Ubuntu. This means that some software won't work on it. The big players like Microsoft and Google generally try to make distributions for Linux, but sometimes they don't. While this hasn't been a problem for me, it is good to check that if you have other software needs to make sure that there are Linux Compatible distributions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Ubuntu for my development machine. It is nice because OSx (which is popular for developers) and Linux are both UNIX based so working with other developers is just that much easier. We also use Ubuntu as our Server technology. This is nice because it is so popular that finding help online for issues is quite easy.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ubuntu is great, however, I will note that on support, if you don't want to pay, you will need to put in the effort to learn the command line, because almost all information on the internet assumes that you know it. If that doesn't bother you then go for it. I've never regretted it.
