Efficiency is much better compared to other OS. My backend server runs much faster with ubuntu compared to windows with same hardware configuration, and it's easy to install and maintain different software packages with ubuntu.

There is no option for creating a new file after right click. UI needs a lot of improvement and windows has a far better UI compared to this.
