This version is really good

  • May 17, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I liked this version of Ubuntu. There is so much you can do. And I believe every developer should use Ubuntu. It has some newfeatures like color emoticons, preinstalled To-Do application, etc. This version is better and is mooth in functioning. It also has more installation options. Ubuntu is far better than windows or any other operating system. Unlike windows, you don't have to buy software like Microsoft word, Microsoft excel, Microsoft PowerPoint, or any other Microsoft office software. Ubuntu has its own libre office, just like Microsoft Office, which is fantastic. Ubuntu is excellent, and I recommend everyone to use Ubuntu. All the features and customizations you find in Ubuntu, you won't find it in any other operating systems. Being an open-source product makes it even more enjoyable.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although the size of every new update is too large, it fills up my disk space quickly. Also some issues like wifi problems, adapter issues, etc are hard to resolve, you need to spend lot of time and have little knowledge fixing any issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used Ubuntu for five years, and since it has so many customizations available and new features added to Ubuntu 18, I use it more than windows. I hope they will add more features in upcoming versions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ubuntu is excellent, and I recommend everyone to use Ubuntu. All the features and customizations you find in Ubuntu, you won't find it in any other operating systems. Being an open-source product makes it even more enjoyable.
