One of the best operating softwares for developers

  • June 23, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu Desktop is easy to install and there is a lot of documentation available on how to work with this operating system if you are new to it. It is a lightweight operating system in comparison to others out there.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some features provided by Ubuntu can be difficult to understand or work with if you do not have a good idea of what it is. While it might be good for open source development, some basic tasks using text editors seem difficult to use or install (since it is not in-built app).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The latest version of Ubuntu introduces several new features that optimize multitasking in Ubuntu Desktop. Before this version, multitasking didn't seem that efficient in comparison to other operating systems out there. However, with this new feature, we can control the number of active workspaces and organize the tabs more neatly.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are an administrator or an open-source developer, then Ubuntu Desktop is one of the most reliable, manageable and easy operating software to use.

ubuntu desktop

  • June 19, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use as compared to managing things using a terminal window. like managing partitions, monitoring the system usage, processes, RAM, etc. It has a feature called "rxdp" which we use for desktop remote from other OS some of the time to work with. I think it's a great feature.
What do you dislike about the product?
It hangs up, stuck for some time, but can be solved after updating some libraries. It does not have a friendly partition system like Windows has. We connect to desktops via Putty to resolve black screen issues that arise from time to time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am a developer. We mostly develop programmes that Windows does not support. It takes a long time to install things in Windows, so it's easy to install libraries for Python development in Ubuntu. We discovered that most of the solutions we liked were available for Linux, so we use it.

Downsides of using Ubuntu are long-gone, in the past I used to have issues with attaching devices via Bluetooth and some random internal errors, but a few versions ago it all became past.

Ubuntu is reviving some of my older laptops, beside it is used as the top preference OS in my office. Any new developer is suggested to start with Ubuntu, as it increases their performance.

Apart from being a free and open-source OS, Ubuntu is highly customizable and there is a bunch of apps made for Ubuntu that can cover every user's needs.

Ubuntu:- Unknown but Useful

  • June 11, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best thing I like about Ubuntu is its security, In ubuntu their is less chance of malware attacks and as it provides various CLI to boost and optimize your daily task and also it is free source to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are no drawbacks for ubuntu but the thing which I don't like is that there is less software which can be used in Ubuntu for Microsoft Office you have to use an alternative version for this but this is because of it's less popularity over other OS.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu is a Linux-based OS so the best thing about is its simple use and it is virus-free so you don't need to take any tension about it. Other than that Ubuntu has a bash command which helps me faster and optimizes my daily task like maintaining folder structure and networking-related tasks.

The most important thing is that Ubuntu is an oipen source os. So we can modify it as per our use without any restrictions.
