El mejor sistema operativo Linux gratuito y estable.

What do you like best about the product?

Ubuntu es el sistema operativo mas famoso de Linux, tiene un desarrollo constante y mejoras diarias.
Cuenta con una comunidad de expertos que ofrecen sus conocimientos diariamente a este gran Sistema Operativo.

Ubuntu se adapta muy bien a cualquier PC actual, teniendo mucho soporte a los Drivers de tarjeta de video y cualquier dispositivo por USB.

El centro de Software de Ubuntu tiene los software mas conocidos y usados por la gran comunidad de programadores y usuarios, dando la facilidad de buscar y descargar en tu sistema.

Me gusta mucho la integracion de programas alternos como Google Drive, donde puedes sincronizar tus archivos de la Nube personal de Google Drive en tu PC sin necesidad de descargar complementos extras despues de la instalacion de Ubuntu.


Ubuntu is the most famous Linux operating system, it has a constant development and daily improvements.
It has a community of experts who offer their knowledge daily to this great Operating System.

Ubuntu adapts very well to any current PC, having a lot of support for the Video Card Drivers and any USB device.

The Ubuntu Software Center has the best known and used software by the large community of programmers and users, giving the facility to search and download on your system.

I really like the integration of alternative programs such as Google Drive, where you can synchronize your files from the Google Drive Personal Cloud on your PC without having to download extra plug-ins after installing Ubuntu.
What do you dislike about the product?
In the most recent version of Ubuntu, it does not allow creating a guest profile or leaving a profile without a password so that a family member or friend can use your PC without revealing the secret key, which makes me very uncomfortable when lending my PC to non-personal use.

Since I started using Ubuntu it has improved a lot, but the desktop changes did not adapt well changing very often and forcing you to use them with its default installation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu is a very stable and fast system, adapts very well and has an immense community of programmers, where you can help improve the system and create new options that fit your needs.

Ubuntu being a very stable system I was able to completely migrate from Windows and save money on proprietary license.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend Ubuntu to all users who wish to try Free Linux Software, it is a very stable system, easy installation and many useful programs online, where you can work and enjoy freely without any cost.

In its 64-bit version you can enjoy all known programs, for example Google Chrome where you have everything synchronized.

Debian

  • July 26, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is an operating system that allows to securely install and configure administration services, such as IP assignment, user license management, web services, database services, among others. In addition as a system developer and fan of free software, I like to install and manage the services where I host my Web pages, the Apache service, Database servers, dhcp and ldap, maintaining total control of the service platform. To conclude, since I could have a good time listing things that I like about Debian is a very stable system, whose failures are counted compared to windows that the failures are recurring.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I do not dislike about Debian is that its graphical interface is very unattractive, if I have already worked with Windows or Mac, although in the latest versions it has improved, but today it is still unattractive, which makes the worker Desk feels uncomfortable. And if a user porcuriosidad seeks to try Debian, there are many users who give up trying it by its interface. Another aspect, although it could be seen as an advantage, updated their systems and programs compatible with Debian almost daily, but this requires technicians to update each command so that their programs are more efficient and consume productive working time
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For the administration of the operating system service, Debian makes it very easy for the people in charge of these tasks, facilitating the proper use of the Ministry's IT platform. Another aspect that generates benefits is that many of the Ministry's machines have an obsolete hardware configuration, Pentium IV, core-duo. Another advantage with respect to Windows, is that it is a very stable, robust and multiprocess system, which does not tend to be interrupted since if a process is out of control, it can be eliminated and the operating system continues to work.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would also recommend it for those organizations whose computers have hardware configurations with few or obsolete resources that generate problems for users to run the installed programs. Also for those companies that want to have control of their Web services, Database, Ip Addressing, password logging as ldap between other services

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I am using ubuntu operationg system from last five year this is one of the great operating system for developers and coders one thing that i like most in this operating system it is an computer virus free operating system because this operating does not support .exe file format and most of the computer virus wrote in .exe file format this is the biggest problem in other operating system because of this i already lost my data and i got this operating system in my laptop and its UI is also good and easy to operate even you are first time user of this operating system and kernel is also good support shell scripting and cpp and java it is also having its Ubuntu market for application if you need any extra feature in your system.

It is good multi user operating system but sometimes it stuck and stop working this feature i never ever face in other operating system like windows and androids and also not good application market and having some limited user good for the developers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One thing that i like most in this operating system that it virus free last time when i was using windows operating system.

Great OS for beginning linux

  • July 05, 2019

What do you like best about the product?
Fist Linux OS we were taught, easy to use and easy to learn
What do you dislike about the product?
It did occasionally crash with simple commands but would handle large commands or pulls well
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We’re using it to educate others on Linux before letting them access other systems and it’s been a great learning tool

A flexible OS for both web hosting and personal computing

  • July 04, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love to work with the command line interface and Ubuntu has everything which I need, a black terminal and commands. I don't like the Ubuntu interface because it is not easy to understand. If you need anything, just work with the terminal. This is the best platform for the website hosting.
What do you dislike about the product?
You definitely need to have a solid understanding of filesystems and how to locate things - that was the largest barrier to entry for me. Once you develop this knowledge and learn to work a little at the command line, you're good.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to run computers and private servers with great flexibility. We can implement extensive network setups with Ubuntu's terminal, which I think is one of the most developer- friendly applications. It is also the default way to use the power of bash, which is convenient for us. With all of my experience, I have had very positive and smooth experiences working with several versions of Ubuntu. We are able to use local integrated app menus, the utility launcher and the very helpful minimizer. Locking it has never been easier and it works really great with VMware. We can generate high quality graphics and above average speed. The installation process was also easy and allowed us to get rolling with limited waiting time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ubuntu is the free Operating system. you can download it at your end and install it. If you are a developer, you can use as a web server. When you are familiar with this, just go it live. Use Ubuntu on the live platform.

  • July 02, 2019

What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is one of the linux distributions that offers a functioning software centre. In addition to all the beautiful features of linux it still offers this too. Ubuntu also offers a well-organised directory structure and that is easy to navigate even for non-technical people and a powerful command line for power users. The searching on ubuntu is also blazingly fast as it indexes all files starting from root.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve is a beet steep and sometimes if installing applications can be a bit tedious especially when building from source or when you run into dependency issues
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use ubuntu as my primary OS and it solves all my business problems, I use it for my everyday tasks which range from software development to leisure activities such a watching movies.
