  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I have used Ubuntu for 3.5 years. I feel that ubuntu is faster than other operating systems. It's easy to install any software via command line. It uses low storage which makes it faster with low RAM.
What do you dislike about the product?
I feel that it is somewhat hard for the newbie in IT industry as we need to do most of the things via command line to install the software. That's the only thing I dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One of the main benefit for me and my organization is that it is secure OS and most of the servers are supporting this Operating System and at the same time it is open source.

Dependable and Versatile

  • June 30, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu Desktop is a superb operating system deserving all five stars. I've been using it for a while, and I'm always impressed by how well it works and how versatile it is.

This operating system was created with the user in mind as soon as Ubuntu Desktop was installed. New and seasoned users can easily traverse the interface because it is sleek, contemporary, and user-friendly. The GNOME desktop environment is integrated, offering a simple, intuitive experience that boosts productivity and reduces distractions.

The consistent reliability of Ubuntu Desktop is what sets it apart. Even when performing demanding jobs, I've only sometimes experienced crashes or system failures. Users that respect the safety of their data can rest easy knowing that regular updates keep the system current and secure.

The extensive software catalogue of Ubuntu Desktop is one of its most notable aspects. Applications ranging from office tools to multimedia software and development environments are available through the Ubuntu Software Centre. In addition, including Snap and Flatpak packages broadens the software ecosystem and guarantees that customers may access the most recent and cutting-edge programmes.

I would definitely recommend it.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's not much I dislike about Ubuntu Desktop, but they can focus on this feedback.
Ubuntu Desktop's focus on stability and reliability sometimes delays support for cutting-edge hardware features or bleeding-edge software technologies. Users seeking the latest hardware support or bleeding-edge software may need to consider alternative distributions or wait for official updates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've been using Ubuntu Desktop for years, and it continues to impress me with its stability and reliability. I rarely encounter any crashes or system issues, making it a highly dependable choice.

Smooth research experience

  • June 27, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
How Baremetal it is. It's extremely light and very customisable making it an essential in most research environments. Not to mention how open source it is. Most software run on Ubuntu too.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can sometimes be too Baremetal. Can't really play games on it. Requires admin log in for way too many things. Some aspects can be a bit more user friendly. Otherwise okay.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Open source light operating system that i can boot on a very normal and somewhat lightweight computer. Most software works based off of unix. I have also been fascinated with the inodes concept that unix uses for memory storage.

One of the best Operating software for making pen testing labs

  • June 24, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu Desktop is a very lightweight, open-source, and free operating system which makes it our number one choice for using it in our labs. Previous versions of Ubuntu are readily available for our use which makes it even more flexible and versatile.
What do you dislike about the product?
Ubuntu is a fair bit slow in comparison to other Unix-based operating systems but in our use case that has never been a huge problem.
Another noteworthy issue is the lack of hardware drivers for Ubuntu.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu is free and open-source so we don't have to worry much about software licenses and can freely share it with our clients. The whole operating system is small and lightweight which increases compatibility for our clients to use it.

Best OS for development

  • June 22, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The Thing that I most like about Ubuntu is that I can install almost everything related to development on my device through the terminal. It saves a lot of time as compared to other OS where you have to manually install everything.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are also cons when it comes to Ubuntu OS such as you do not get a lot of apps especially when it comes to multimedia and also it does not perform very well when you run heavy apps like android studio.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When I was using other OS like Mac or Windows the installing and importing process was very time-consuming and also the updates but when it comes to Ubuntu it outperforms everyone and does these tasks with only single command on the terminal.

Ubuntu is Great for Developers but Not for GUI users

  • June 20, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu has more security than Windows, and it doesn't need antivirus. And we can edit Kernal for customization and use it for a secure connection to cloud servers. Booting issues are very less compared to Windows, whereas Windows is getting BSOD booting issues. Ubuntu Desktop is very useful for Developers and Server engineers.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you are using Ubuntu, you must remember many commands to run or install the packages. Ubuntu doesn't support many apps we use daily, like outlook and Microsoft products. Of course, there are other free versions like libre Office and wps but Microsoft products have more reliability for backup
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Secure SSH connections to the Servers and Kernal customization and coding. Installation is complicated for developers using Windows, SSH, and other dependent packages. Ubuntu Desktop is Best for Developers and Coders.
