The ability to customise, ubuntu gives you the power to customise the os to a large extent, also it manages resources very efficiently compared to other os which results in faster performance.
What do you dislike about the product?
The app store, the app store does not have the most commonly used applications like edge, teamviewer also updating the already installed app is a very painful and long process.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Better resource utilisation helps me to do multitasking very efficiently. I can run more number of apps very smoothly on ubuntu as compared to other os with same device specification.

One of the best operating softwares for developers

  • June 23, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu Desktop is easy to install and there is a lot of documentation available on how to work with this operating system if you are new to it. It is a lightweight operating system in comparison to others out there.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some features provided by Ubuntu can be difficult to understand or work with if you do not have a good idea of what it is. While it might be good for open source development, some basic tasks using text editors seem difficult to use or install (since it is not in-built app).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The latest version of Ubuntu introduces several new features that optimize multitasking in Ubuntu Desktop. Before this version, multitasking didn't seem that efficient in comparison to other operating systems out there. However, with this new feature, we can control the number of active workspaces and organize the tabs more neatly.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are an administrator or an open-source developer, then Ubuntu Desktop is one of the most reliable, manageable and easy operating software to use.

Ubuntu for the Unconventional

  • June 21, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The upside to using Ubuntu is your capability to customize your base experience. Not particularly the ascetic piece, which is much less important, but the programs you run and how exactly they run.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is somewhat of a niche product, in that it is used for a variety of things, but not all at once. Simply put, if you use this operating system for something, you're not always guaranteed to find someone else who uses it the same.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows me the freedom to run different programs on a computer that I otherwise would not be able to. Specifically it can be used with game emulators that other operating systems might reject.

ubuntu desktop

  • June 19, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use as compared to managing things using a terminal window. like managing partitions, monitoring the system usage, processes, RAM, etc. It has a feature called "rxdp" which we use for desktop remote from other OS some of the time to work with. I think it's a great feature.
What do you dislike about the product?
It hangs up, stuck for some time, but can be solved after updating some libraries. It does not have a friendly partition system like Windows has. We connect to desktops via Putty to resolve black screen issues that arise from time to time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am a developer. We mostly develop programmes that Windows does not support. It takes a long time to install things in Windows, so it's easy to install libraries for Python development in Ubuntu. We discovered that most of the solutions we liked were available for Linux, so we use it.

Most beautiful developer experience

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the simplicity and stability of Ubuntu OS, as the ability to customize per my personal needs, allows me to create a perfect dev environment for my day-to-day work.
What do you dislike about the product?
Downsides of using Ubuntu are long-gone, in the past I used to have issues with attaching devices via Bluetooth and some random internal errors, but a few versions ago it all became past.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu is reviving some of my older laptops, beside it is used as the top preference OS in my office. Any new developer is suggested to start with Ubuntu, as it increases their performance.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Apart from being a free and open-source OS, Ubuntu is highly customizable and there is a bunch of apps made for Ubuntu that can cover every user's needs.
