Popularity and Stability

  • April 21, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is the most popular linux distro with a stable and reliable experience with their long-term supported versions. it is a well-known and popular distro, has a massive community built around it. Ubuntu has well tested packages in their repositories and offers high software availability
What do you dislike about the product?
Ubuntu pushes its universal packaging format Snaps, which, compared to Flatpaks, are known to be slow and, in some instances, have some performance drawbacks.
Ubuntu ships software with some inconsistencies in recent releases. Specific Gnome software shipped with the release had an older version, while certain other apps had a more recent version. Their software store, for example, is a fork of Gnome software, and it falls a few versions behind the upstream Gnome Software. These inconsistencies are reportedly being addressed, and I believe future releases will ship with more recent software by default.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used Ubuntu as a daily driver Operating system developing software, and it was my first distro where I started learning about Linux. Since Ubuntu is less resource hungry, I was able to maximize hardware utilization nd improve performance.

It is a super cool interface and user-friendliness. It is perfect for coders and especially software developers. I can use Ubuntu very effectively to produce the best results.

Excellent free desktop OS for free

  • April 18, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Free open-source desktop for no cost. Useful for repurposing an old computer or laptop and giving it more life. Typically Ubuntu requires less resources than a full Windows install so its great to use on older machines.
What do you dislike about the product?
Learning linux can be a bit of a challenge, software that runs on a Linux system can be more difficult to find for certain things. If you are not the primary user it can be challenging to get Windows or Mac users to adopt something new.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When I need to install software on a machine but want to isolate it from the rest of the computer I will create an Ubuntu Virtual Machine to host the software.
