Operating System for All

  • October 16, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I have been using ubuntu OS from last 3 years as a developer and what I liked best about ubuntu are given below:

Ubuntu is free to download and use, and is open source, which means it is free to use, modify, and distribute. Which gives transparency and freedom.

Ubuntu also comes with long-term support, which gives support and updates for upto 5 years.

To keep the system secure from vulnerabilities, patches and upgrades are often given.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although the Ubuntu Software Center has a large number of softwares, but it still fall short and is slow infront of Windows and macOS software store.

Despite Ubuntu's good and user-friendly UI, people who comes from other OS may find it challenging to use terminal commands and other Linux-specific details.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu is a free and open-source, hence it is cost-effective. This cost-effectiveness is a big plus for us. The cost of software licensing is reduced.

For hosting websites, databases, and cloud-based applications, it provides a reliable and scalable infrastructure.

It has always been the GUI, like most Linux OS, the graphics has always been subpar, and Ubuntu is no exception. I hope they won't stop making upgrades to finally get the graphics we deserve.

I'm using Window's WSL and coding with Ubuntu has been excitingly fast, it uses fewer resources such memory and storage as oppose to running the entire virtual machine. Installing and updating packages has never been easy.
