What do you like best about the product?
Excellent GUI, hosts of features and libraries, a bunch of options to customize the OS, great support and compatibility with a lot of software. It can be used by a general user, an advanced user and even a software developer

Heavyweight OS needs a lot of customization to deploy it to the embedded system or OS-based devices. Other lightweight OS with light and custom kernels are better to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helping in doing seamless software development and even used for general office work, including creating documentation and entertainment. It's helping me as an alternate to other OS which are not secured enough.

Pros and Cons of Ubuntu Server: A Closer Look

  • February 22, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Personally, I love Ubuntu Server because of how reliable and stable it is. I've used it to host a variety of applications and services, and it's always been rock-solid and dependable. I've never experienced any unexpected downtime or issues with stability, which is a huge plus when you're running critical applications.

In terms of security, Ubuntu Server is also great. It's built on top of Linux, which is known for its strong security features, and Ubuntu specifically receives regular security updates to keep it protected against the latest threats. As someone who values the security of my applications and data, this is really important to me.
What do you dislike about the product?
Steep learning curve: Although Ubuntu Server is generally considered to be user-friendly, some users may find the learning curve to be a bit steep, especially if they're not familiar with Linux or command-line tools.

Limited support for some software: While Ubuntu Server supports many popular software packages and programming languages, it may not support every software package or programming language out there. This could be an issue for users who have specific requirements.

Updates can cause issues: While updates are essential for keeping your server secure and up-to-date, they can sometimes cause issues with existing applications or configurations. This is not unique to Ubuntu Server but is a general issue that affects all server operating systems.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu Server has been incredibly beneficial for me and my organization. One of the most significant advantages is its reliability - we need our servers to be running continuously, and Ubuntu Server has proven to be incredibly stable and dependable. Additionally, its strong security features have given us peace of mind knowing that our sensitive data and applications are well-protected.

Another benefit we've experienced is its ease of use. Despite not having a background in Linux, the user-friendly interface and intuitive command-line tools have made it easy for me to manage and configure our servers without needing to be an expert.
