Fantastic OS X Replacement

  • November 06, 2019

What do you like best about the product?
From going from OS X to Ubuntu, I was surprised about how easy the transition was.

Everything you need is immediately there, or available in Ubuntu Software
What do you dislike about the product?
If you’re not expecting to ever touch terminal, then don’t be afraid. Most things can be achieved without it, but the rest is a quick google away. Embrace it and you won’t go back.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu is extremely quick and light weight in comparison to Windows (which is more of a headache) and even OS X
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a go and you won’t look back

What do you like best about the product?
I like Ubuntu because it is the best Linux distribution, I have many programs in the software center, a lot of documentation on the Internet, the updates always keep my system updated and stable.
This system has antivirus, it is perfect for removing viruses from a flash drive or hard drive connected to a Windows PC.
The installation is very simple and the creation of partitions on the disk is simple, I like this option to decide how to distribute my space.
It is compatible with many Debian programs, a very robust and powerful system but difficult to use, Ubuntu makes it easy for me to work on my home and office PC. Play audio, video, send email and much more.
What do you dislike about the product?
The updates of Ubuntu versions have errors, you have to do a clean installation and this takes time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use this system for web service from my PC, it is easy to use with a pleasant, stable graphical interface with perfect server functions for all web services, proxy, email, NAS.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ubuntu is free, works perfectly on PC and has compatibility with all hardware, a clean installation of this system will leave your PC ready to work and surf the Internet for sure.

Ubuntu as the best operating system

  • October 28, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is one of the most robust, stable and fast operating systems on the market.
It is austere, it works up to 386
Memory management prevents application errors from stopping the kernel.
It is multitasking and multi-user: This essential feature is in Unix since its conception.
Supports a variety of graphic environments (KDE, GNOME, XFCE ...)
There are thousands of free programs adapted to many different purposes and available on the internet for use with GNU / Linux
It allows you to surf the Internet and connect networked machines naturally.
Almost any Unix application can be used under Ubuntu.
Large amount of free documentation, although not always translated
What do you dislike about the product?
The freedom of copy and modification does not allow the use of GNU with all the freedom I need to provide services without relying on third parties.
To be able to download from the internet, the price of distributions must remain competitive and therefore it is a fair price but not free.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I work every day with this system integrated in my computer, the configuration options allow me to integrate it with all my software tools, the programs work spectacularly. Fast in all applications as well as programs that I use.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great versatility and great speed when using the computer. I recommend any user to try this operating system without equal, over time you will appreciate it and you will see improved performance in the workplace.

Stable, secure and virus-free Linux for all PCs.

  • October 24, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is the easiest and most stable Linux system, it has a lot of documentation on the Internet and constant updates, making it safe and stable.
The installation of programs from the Ubuntu software center is simple, I look for the program you want, download and install.
Ubuntu has several versions for different types of PCs, lightweight like Lubuntu, Edubuntu school, Ubuntu server, and all this based on the Ubuntu / Debian Kernel.
What do you dislike about the product?
Ubuntu has problems with Windows NTFS partitions and compatibility problem with programs in Wine.
There are Debian programs that do not work well in Ubuntu, lack of compatibility and ease of installation of programs over the Internet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use the same Ubuntu Kernel for old PCs and servers, I always have security updates on my system and virus free.
I do not need the Ubuntu Server to install my services, since Ubuntu with graphical interface and any of its derivatives I install the Apache Server services.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Download this program for your PC, it is virus free and free, the graphical interface has a search engine for programs and files of all kinds, to facilitate search, system backup and much more.
I recommend it to you.
