Solid daily driver with some welcome improvements

  • September 23, 2025
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use is outstanding - even coming from Windows, the learning curve was minimal. Implementation was surprisingly smooth; the installation process is straightforward and hardware detection worked flawlessly on my laptop. I use it daily for both work and personal tasks, and it handles everything from web browsing to development work without hiccups. The number of features available through the software center is impressive - there's practically an app for everything. While I haven't needed much customer support, the community forums are incredibly helpful and responsive when issues do come up.
What do you dislike about the product?
Despite the overall ease of use, some advanced configurations still require terminal commands that aren't beginner-friendly. The implementation of Snap packages, while feature-rich, can be frustrating due to slow startup times that interrupt daily workflow. Customer support options are limited if you need official help beyond community forums - fine for hobbyists but potentially problematic for business use. Some features feel half-baked or inconsistent; for instance, the settings app covers basics well but lacks the depth found in other distros. The frequency of use reveals that certain default applications become sluggish over time, requiring periodic cleanup or replacement with lighter alternatives.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu eliminates the hassle of setting up dev tools. Docker, VS Code, and Linux commands just work without the compatibility nightmares I had before. No more messing with WSL or VMs - everything runs natively and fast. Installing development packages is simple with apt, and the system stays stable during long coding sessions. It lets me focus on coding instead of fighting my operating system

What do you like best about the product?
I am using Ubuntu since my collage days. It is very easy to install and use. Even i can dual boot the os on any existing windows machine easily to experience of 2 different operating systems. As a web developer i have to work on servers so my main os on my laptop is ubuntu i use it on daily basis. If any one wants to install ubuntu its super easy just got to ubuntu official site download the desktop version if requires make a bootable pendrive and just install it. So absolutly no pain in integratigration & implementation the os with exting machine. I can download required softwares from either snap store or from apt manager. I use terminal to do all the work this helps me to use ubuntu without GUI to undestand directory stucture of linux. I would recondmmend to use ubuntu to eveyone. I havent faced any issues wich requires customer support so can not tell for sure about it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think all the libreoffice tolls need improvemnt they are not easy to work with.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
at the starting my career i want not that god to undestand the working of operating systems and there directory strutures. and as a web developer i needed to improve in those areas so i started to lern abound linux architechture based os and my first choice was ubuntu. Use of ubuntu keeps me upto date with GUI less server interaction uptodate. Its lightweight os its super fast and stable to use. Also wide community support is available no worries about any required softwares.

A reliable, powerful, and user-friendly operating system

What do you like best about the product?
I love how stable and secure Ubuntu feels right out of the box. The interface is clean, intuitive, and customizable to my workflow. The fact that it’s open-source with such a strong community behind it means I can always find support, new tools, and creative solutions. Plus, it runs quickly even on older hardware, which makes it super versatile.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only drawback is compatibility. Some specialized or proprietary software, especially in industries that depend heavily on Windows-only programs, isn’t always available on Ubuntu. While there are workarounds with Wine or virtualization, it can take extra time and tweaking. Occasionally, hardware drivers also require manual setup, which might feel intimidating for new users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu solves the problem of expensive, restrictive software by giving me a fully free and open-source operating system that doesn’t compromise on performance. It makes my workflow more secure and efficient, with far fewer system crashes or forced updates than I’ve experienced on other platforms. It also helps me learn more about technology since it encourages tinkering and customization, which has boosted both my confidence and productivity.
