Ubuntu Linux Reviews

Because they are cheap and they do not charge me for traffic.

I need to upload a very large amount of data do Google Servers and Digital Ocean doesn´t charge me for traffic like Amazon does. This was the best option.

Compare it to Amazon AWS and you will see how much they can grow. Every company wants to grow as much as possible, or even more than AWS. So compare Digital Ocean with AWS and you will see how much they can grow. I don´t mind using AWS anymore and I think that what Digital Ocean offers me is enough.

I believe we have been using it for a year.

There were no stability issues.

There were no scalability issues.

I didn´t have to ask for technical support. Their documentation solved my problems.

We used Google Compute Cloud, and we switched because Digital Ocean is cheaper.

The initial setup was straightforward. They require very little information in order to start your droplet.

If you need a cheap server, this is the way you should go.

We evaluated Google Cloud Compute and Amazon AWS.

It works like the others, but it seems cheaper. If you´re looking for a robust implementation, then go with AWS.

• Security - you don't need to worry about viruses and spyware, as the system is built with security in mind and almost nothing can get in at the OS level
• Speed - the system boots up faster, and software loads faster when compared to Windows and Apple environments
• Open Source - There's a lot of software for Ubuntu that is free and without the need of licenses

We save money by avoiding the need for software purchases and upgrades. We also avoid the overhead costs of buying a system or upgrading the hardware since the system works efficiently with the existing hardware.

They need to allow more Windows software to work with Linux, such as 3D games.

I've used it for seven years.

We use this solution to install multiple applications in our environment.

It keeps you secure from virus and malware attacks.

The interface could be more user-friendly.

I have been using Ubuntu Linux for 10 to 12 years.

We are using the latest version.

It's a stable solution.

It's a scalable solution. We have 10 users in our organization.

We plan to continue using it in the future.

We have not had to contact Linux Support.

Previously, I worked with AIX.

AIX is very old today.

The initial setup is straightforward. It's easy, very simple.

It takes an hour to deploy.

I completed the implementation myself.

We have a team of five people to deploy and maintain this solution.

This is a solution that I can recommend to other users who are interested in using it.

I would rate Ubuntu Linux a ten out of ten.

We are using Ubuntu Linux as a file management solution.

The solution could improve by being more secure.

I have been using Ubuntu Linux for approximately five years.

Ubuntu Linux could be more stable.

The solution is scalable.

We plan to increase the usage of Ubuntu Linux.

Our engineers have received all the commands for the command prompt they needed by using the online support you can find by using Google. 

We have used Microsoft Windows solutions.

The installation took us approximately two hours.

We have a team of approximately five engineers that do the implementation and maintenance of the solution.

We are not using the licensed version of the solution, we are using the free version.

I rate Ubuntu Linux an eight out of ten.

As we have repositories in my country, the ease of use and the open source nature of the solution are valuable features. I can now install Active Directory on it.

The documentation is very poor. It is written like a textbook.

I have been using Ubuntu Linux since 2010.

I have never had occasion to contact technical support. 

Prior to using Ubuntu Linux we made use of Windows Server. 

The installation is straightforward.

The solution is a deployed server, so it is not really a desktop machine. Deployment took 20 minutes. 

The deployment can be done on one's own. 

Deployment and maintenance only involve two people to provide administrative support. 

The solution is open source, so there is no licensing fee.

I would recommend the solution to others. 

I rate Ubuntu Linux as a ten out of ten. 

The feature that I most like in Ubuntu is that it is really easy to use. Ubuntu is very easy to use and comes with many available packages. I think that Ubuntu is a good solution for the small business or a small lab, like ours. We have a different database, more applications, and more solutions, and it's not so difficult to use Ubuntu for that.

it sometimes happens that when you upgrade, the network card deactivates.
the "Network-manager" network service must be restarted to allow the server to be able to reconnect to the network. this is a situation that I have experienced several times.
Therefore if it is a novice it could be compromising for him.
I think it would be important to improve this so that the network service or even any other service is not stopped after an upgrade.

I have been using Ubuntu Linux for eight to ten years.

We are three senior engineers and four junior engineer doing the maintenance.

In terms of scalability, Ubuntu allows us to implement the necessary scalability. But in our solution, we don't need scalability. But it is possible to implement the solution in Ubuntu and I think it permits scalability.

I have tried to do the scalability by using the future machine to implement the scalability solution, but at this time we don't use it in our solution in the lab because you have many people with commercial access. For this kind of use, normally it is on our server for our solution but it's possible to implement a scalability solution with high availability, also.

I never contacted customer support. Maybe in the future I will contact Ubuntu technical support. For now, when we have a problem, we try to go to the community on different discussion forums to solve our different problems.

The initial setup is easy, it's not complex.

It does not take a long time. The installation of Ubuntu takes maybe 30 to 40 minutes for only its installation and not to deploy our additional software solution.

What I can advise is that Ubuntu is a good solution for different environments, such as one server, but it will be important for them to estimate their scalability solution. If there are many people with access to the server, we know there will be load implementation of the server and you can use Ubuntu here. Ubuntu is easy to use and has a big community for the back-end that can help with the deployment of the solution.

On a scale of one to ten, I would rate Ubuntu Linux a nine.

I use Ubuntu for running personal applications.

Ubuntu is free and stable.

I think Ubuntu is not that secure.

I've been using Ubuntu for 10 years or more.

Ubuntu isn't as stable as some solutions.

I've used Windows and macOS before, but I have not switched. I'm trying out Ubuntu right now.

Setting up Ubuntu was relatively easy. It takes about 15 minutes, and I can do it myself.

Machine learning -- create models with Anaconda

Ubuntu is good for machine learning. It's also a good option for any type of application development. Ubuntu has improved a lot over the years in terms of ease of use as well.

Ubuntu could add some additional hardware support.

I've been using Ubuntu for about six years.

Ubuntu's performance and stability have always been good.

I was using macOS previously but I switched to Ubuntu because it's more flexible with hardware (GPU support).  You can run Ubuntu on everything

I would rate Ubuntu nine out of 10. If you are thinking of implementing it, I recommend long-term support LTS versions
