A door to Linux

  • August 05, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Familiar UX for Windows users, with a lot of tools to help them, most of dependencies are pre installed so the terminal becomes of minimal use when setting up the OS.
What do you dislike about the product?
Still needs to be a little bit streamlined to get a better adoption in the market, sometimes the user gets obstacles while setting up for the first time resulting in long searches to fix some trivial issues with Drivers and other things.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Privacy related matters and performance as I can limit how many things run in the background, great levels of personalization to make the OS truly yours and the experimentation within the Linux ecosystem

Best OS For CLI

  • August 04, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is by far the best OS which is built for CLI usage. It executes commands pretty fast and is very light weight OS. We can use multiple commands for handling queries, tasks and automate processes.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing. If some more good GUI features are added it would be a boon for beginners.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automation, patching

Essential open source operating system

  • August 02, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is a configurable, free and open-source operating system maintained by a non-profit community free of commercial interest that works both on new high-end hardware as well as on older machines to increase their long-term value for business or education.
What do you dislike about the product?
Community discussion/support can get a bit too technical sometimes. Device driver support has been problematic for certain peripheral devices in the past.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a professional user and web developer, I prefer an operating system that allows me to configure and fine-tune system settings and preferences beyond the usual end-user options. But I also need a system that provides a stable desktop environment suitable for productivity and development software. Ubuntu is a Linux distribution that combines both aspects out of the box.

One of the most stable Linux systems I ever used

  • July 25, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I am a big fan of Ubuntu, Why?
1. When I was entering into the linux systems from Windows system, I found Ubuntu most user friendly Linux, It is really easy to navigate through.
2. It has really vast support of software repository.
3. People opensourced lot of customizations for Ubuntu Desktop, You can completely transform into a system according to your needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
1. It has lot vast software repository, but it still misses lot of main stream applications like Gaming apps, But I think Ubuntu is purposed for different segment of users and it fulfills the purpose completely. But I want to see Ubuntu more richer and richer in terms of app support :)
2. It's definitely one of the most easiest Linux system to start, But it still has some learning curve, and yes you need to be aware of File system, I saw people hiting random commands and loosing data, So It has it's own learning curve to be pro.
3. I faced some issues related to hardware compatibility also, Like my laptop battery used to drain faster on Ubuntu.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1. I think for most of the software developers, Ubuntu is first choice, because of it's simplicity yet being powerful with shell programming.
2.Ubuntu is famous for frictionless deployment, It is powering most of the cloud applications or services.
3. Whenever I am using Docker, I use Ubuntu first, because it has very rich and stable support for applications/utilities I need for most of the applications being deployed.

A free and more stable operating system in place of windows.

The last enterprise worthy linux standing

  • July 18, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's the last opensoruce long term reliable enterprise worthy linux. The copetition has all moved to closed ecosystem tryign to force licencing models.
The installer is text mode by default.
What do you dislike about the product?
apt is clunky compared to things like yum
snap is filled with unmaintined bits of software than can be dangerously out of date.
Still to much a desktop OS thats problmatic on servers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it in the sever space primarilty at our scale out storage tier. It's fairly easy to strip down for use in a server role and have good ceph support. We moved over as we needed a long term support as we see 5+ years as part of our storage archtecture in it's primary role and do not expect to look at major updates during that time.

Desktop system for everyone.

What do you like best about the product?
Really, I like the easily, completely and useful that is. By default include many utilities for a conventional user.
What do you dislike about the product?
The appearance could be better, I think Ubuntu Desktop can improve without losing its essence. "Linux for Human Beings".
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu Desktop gives me the freedom to use good quality Open Source software without falling into piracy. I have been able to use WEB Server tools, as well as Graphic Design tools, and in the family environment, have a very versatile entertainment center.
