Best open source operating system

  • October 28, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The thing about Ubuntu is that it is open source and free to use for everyone. It's new versions are very similar to the Windows or Mac os, and if you have used them then you'll find it very familiar to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
although it's new versions are mostly UI, but still you'll need some learning curve to use it. You'll be using the terminal once in a while to install many things which is also a very good thing but if you are not that much of a tech person then you'll find it a little hard for initial days.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Ubuntu as our daily work operating system for a very long time and it solve all our corporate needs free of costs. we don't need to buy any license to install on many computers and it also comes with libre office which is also a very good alternative to Office suite.

Ubuntu server is best for user-friendly service compared to the other flavors in Linux. We can automate our tasks quickly by using scripts which is faster compared to other Linux providers

Ubuntu Desktop review

  • October 26, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu Desktop is the most commonly used platform in majority of the professional companies but it is also good enough for personal use. The command line interface is a very useful tool for coding and running computational programs and tools. Also it's a perfect OS for software development as it is based on Linus.
What do you dislike about the product?
It might take sometime to for a beginner to understand the directory structures and the basic usage of the command line interface thus not that user friendly. Thus suggesting the need of a better structure for the directories.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu Desktop is an open source operating system which provides users like programmers to build their tools. We can write shell scripts for OS level automation. It also flawlessly supports python, java, R and other software development tools.

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, also solutions available due to the product's popularity. The broad library supports many external application plugins. i seen maximum third-party application compatibility.
What do you dislike about the product?
Many methods to perform one task. It can be an advantage, but I sometimes feel like as dislike it, like I can manage the disk using fdisk /dev/sda or gdisk /dev/sda, I agree that they have something different, separately, as on concluded there is nothing to dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Normally i used the ubuntu server for the web server and data sharing server as, like samba server, i got better stability in it and good support and tutorials available on Internet.

Best Opensource linux available for free

  • October 17, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This is the best Linux version that the open-source community has developed for us. Not only it's free but all the qualities listed here makes it really amazing to work with
1. App store - Ubuntu App store will have all the required apps for day-to-day use and free to download. It makes life so much easier instead of downloading it via terminal command you can simply click download and it gets installed.
2.No lag or Crash - I have hardly come across any scenario where ubuntu has crashed or given me hard times. Process and Battery management is so efficient that you never have to worry about tasks running in the background. Its extremely lightweight and can be used on any low-end pc or laptop.
3. Virus and Malware - They simply don't exist. If you keep your passcode strong its not easy to break into ubuntu.
4. GUI- On top of Linux it gives really cool and clean GUI which I liked the most.
What do you dislike about the product?
Have hard time installing the drivers, so sometimes my WiFI and wireless Bluetooth automatically disconnect due to driver issues. If there would have been driver support then it would make it the perfect operating system for coders. Zoom have few issues with screen sharing in ubuntu.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu helps me with my all day-to-day task which requires extreme coding and debugging sessions and meetings. It gives me clean access to all the directories of the system. The Ubuntu terminal is a one-stop solution to all your problems. APT_GET commands help me install whatever I want with just a few simple commands.
Helps me with a good and reliable lag-free GUI to navigate and free apps for me to timepass when I get bored. Software like Android Studio and VS code run smoothly on Ubuntu.
