Ubuntu: Perfect for Everyday Use without the headache of licensing.
What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu is very feature rich and the UI has evolved a lot since i first started using it, it has become very user friendly and has kept resource usage low till this day, it is perfect for use in thin clients and other entry level computers and offers a lot of out of the box applications, and has very small updates compared to Windows and MacOS making it perfect for those who do not have a lot of bandwidth for updates.
What do you dislike about the product?
ubuntu can sometimes require additional configuration and often needs someone to know how to use its terminal which can be very frustrating for first time users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I offer ubuntu to clients that have old hardware with specifications below current entry level standards and to clients switching from old unsupported Windows editions and do not have money for a windows license, and it also serves as a good OS for schools and charities, so building up computers from old computer parts form old broken machines and installing ubuntu on it has proved to be an affordable way to help NGOs have computers and go digital where it seemed impossible to do so with a limited budget.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a clean and free alternative OS, consider Ubuntu, it has come a long way and is now very easy to use, I even recommend it to most of my elderly clients and they always come back commending me on how fast their devices have gotten and how easy it is for them to navigate it. And best of all: it is free and they have a great community for support.
Open Source Best Operating System
What do you like best about the product?
The very first thing that comes to mind is that ubuntu is open source. Which makes it free and since it based on debian so it is stable as well. GNOME makes is a user friendly and a lot easier to use. Support community of ubuntu is best among other linux operating systems. LTS version of ubuntu's are great, they are in for the long run and are stable as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes while updating the system, it breaks and the system crashes. Since it is open source so there is not a lot of testing of code before the code reaches a user system. Which makes a bit less secure and can be prone to hackers as well maybe in the future. Sometimes for installation of a software, we have write commands in terminal rather than the software being available on the software center for easy installation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being open source and free makes it a lot more interesting. We can use it in a big company and it will save a lot of cost by not having to buy another operating system for all other employees. Thus saving a lot of money at the end of the year.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't expect it to work like windows, it has it's own perks and advantages. Terminal in it's own is amazing and can solve a lot of problems and we can install any version of a particular software
Ubuntu in Industory
What do you like best about the product?
This is a Linux based operating system that makes it more secure than windows and because of this, it provides security to our data stored in it. In this, we can easily install the software in Ubuntu by the terminal using the package file.
What do you dislike about the product?
File supported in Ubuntu is very less and it does not support NTFS file formate because of this our window user faces some problem while sharing the file with Ubuntu users. The user interface is not that friendly in Ubuntu many times we have to search google to find services.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Ubuntu for managing our network infrastructure to handle traffic on our network and to monitor activities performing on our network. We created a network monitoring tool using Ubuntu and it is working very well.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would like to recommend Ubuntu to other users also because it is a very useful tool for their organization for the testing environment to run Linux based application on it.
Ubuntu; Lightweight operating system with multiple tools.
What do you like best about the product?
I like Ubuntu a lot because it is an open source operating system, with a powerful Linux-based system, with multiple tools, among them is the application update quickly. This software is lightweight but with great potential which is perfect for limited computers too. It has all the benefits for the university and the office.
What do you dislike about the product?
Only it should improve the graphic quality and be more accessible to users without knowledge in the area.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu has been very useful for me to work from home and on my job site, it doesn't make changes. It is one of the best options that offers security in the protection of files, which allows simple tasks to be carried out in the office to graphics, therefore I have realized that it is very beneficial in all areas.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend using Ubuntu for those users who want to experiment with free software. It is virus free and offers easy access to all applications. You have nothing to envy Windows.

A very convenient OS for developpers
What do you like best about the product?

Best OS for developers
What do you like best about the product?
Free and open source operating system with powerful system built on Linux is what Ubuntu is all about. It is so easy to use even when you are switching from Windows. There are no long running unnecessary jobs running in backend, less chance of getting attacked by a malware and free to use license is why I switched from Windows to Ubuntu.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes there is this annoying message when I boot up which says, "System program problem detected" which doesn't provide any troubleshooting or any way to fix the problem.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu is my go to Operating System for both work and home PC. Its simplicity and nice UI and fast extfs file system makes it a great OS for a developer. Since a lot of IDE uses many small files to perform tasks such as compiling, debugging, extfs does the job faster than ntfs file system which significantly improves speed of development.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Once you use Ubuntu you don't go back to Windows. It's simplicity is what makes it best.
