Ubuntu Linux Reviews

We manufacture special telecommunication equipment, and we use Ubuntu Linux to develop our system and design our equipment.

The most valuable feature of Ubuntu Linux is the price because we don't need to pay as it is used for selling equipment.

The solution's initial setup is complex, and its technical support is not very good.

We have been using Ubuntu Linux for the last one year.

Ubuntu Linux is a very stable solution.

Around two to five users use Ubuntu Linux in our organization.

I rate the solution an eight out of ten for scalability.

The solution’s technical support is not very good.

The solution's initial setup is complex.

We don't pay a licensing fee for the solution.

I would recommend Ubuntu Linux to other users.

Overall, I rate Ubuntu Linux an eight out of ten.

I use Ubuntu Linux as my primary operating system on my personal device.

Firstly, it's open source, and secondly, I like its computation speed compared to Windows and other similar features.

Sometimes certain tasks are challenging due to issues with the command-line interface. Users who prefer Windows may find it difficult to transition to Linux. So, I believe Linux could enhance its user interface to make it more user-friendly for a wider range of users.

Therefore, I suggest improving the user interface.

In additional features, I would like to add an additional software store alongside the existing one. Similar to the Microsoft Store, it offers a wide range of software options.

I have been using it since 2016. I am using version 22.0 LTS.

Ubuntu Linux have two types of releases. The first one is LTS (Long Term Support), and they also release short-term support versions every nine months. I mostly prefer the LTS version because they are the most stable.

I have utilized community forums for VMware-related queries.

For the general public, I don't think it's easy because most OS installations are typically handled by engineers or service center guys. So, for non-technical users, it's similar to installing Windows or any other operating system.

Ubuntu Linux is free for personal use, including business use. However, if you require enterprise-level support from their team, you need to pay a subscription fee. Ubuntu offers custom pricing that may vary based on the business requirements.

When I started using it initially, it had better accessibility and speed. I have a low-end laptop with an AMD processor that doesn't work well with Windows. So, I chose Ubuntu Linux as it works efficiently on that device too.

You should give Ubuntu Linux a try. I would give it a ten. It's the best, in my opinion.

The solution provides digital use for end users. I'm the director of the company and we are customers of Ubuntu. 

Ubuntu has better security and better production in comparison to Microsoft Windows and the hardware performance is better than Microsoft. The best feature of the solution is the auto upgrade operating system we get as a support from Ubuntu. The solution is good on the support level in several aspects; the web server, database management, security management, and viral management. Ubuntu is great on all of these.

The product currently lacks interoperability with other operating systems like Windows. This means that it's not possible to integrate with some of the popular Windows applications  such as accounting, tax, financial accounting and bracket improvement. I'd also like to see a lighter version of this solution. 

I've been using this solution for 15 years. 

This is a stable solution. 

This is a scalable solution. We are a 15-person team using the product but we have deployed for organizations which have 100+ users. We use a three or four person engineering team for deployment. We plan to increase usage of this product. 

We have hardly needed to contact technical support. The solution has good documentation and a community forum for support.

I've been using Red Hat and CentOS but I'm not comfortable with the operating system. With Ubuntu it was a lot quicker to get better security features or updated versions. 

Initial setup is very straightforward. It takes maybe 10-15 minutes. I carried out the deployment myself. 

We haven't gone for a support subscription. Ubuntu is very reasonably priced for anyone looking to use it. 

I would recommend Ubuntu in preference to Red Hat which has shifted to a very advanced engineering team. Ubuntu is for anyone who wants to start out. It's best to use it on the desktop and server. It's one of the reasons providers like Google and Amazon are giving reviews based on Ubuntu.

I would rate this solution a nine out of 10. 

I use Ubuntu Linux for program coding and for some security tasks. I practice cybersecurity on it to identify weaknesses and vulnerabilities.

Ubuntu is a very secure and perfect operating system. It's an open-source and free platform, which makes it accessible and useful.

Currently, I'm just practicing with Ubuntu, so I haven't delved deeply enough to give a definitive answer on what needs improvement. However, one thing I've noticed is network connectivity issues where packets are sometimes lost. Also, there are difficulties when using graphical interfaces, but this might be due to my system's limitations.

I have been using Ubuntu Linux for personal use for the last two years.

I have not faced any stability issues, crashes, or downtimes as a personal user.

The initial setup of Ubuntu is simple. It involves booting from a USB, selecting region and time, and then setting up the partitions before the installation process completes.

Ubuntu Linux is open-source and free to use, which makes it cost-effective.

Ubuntu is an open-source platform, which makes it a free and accessible choice. If someone asks me, I would recommend saying goodbye to Windows and switching to Ubuntu.

Ubuntu Linux is an operating system. We use it from time to time if some applications require it.

The security features are okay. The solution is easy to use. It performs well.

The stability could be improved.

The tool is stable enough. I rate the stability an eight out of ten.

The technical support must be good since the tool is well known and is implemented in many places. We can find the information we need on the web.

The deployment can be done in an hour. Our technical team deployed the tool in our organization. The number of people needed for the deployment depends on the scale of deployment. One person is enough to deploy the solution in one system. More people would be required if we needed 100 servers.

If Ubuntu is required for your application, you should use it. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

SAP connects with Ubuntu Linux, which supports PostgreSQL, which helps connect and authenticate libraries. You can use the tool to get a printout of a picture on the backside of the paper, which may consist of a depiction of production if you send it to a printer via Linux platform.

The most valuable features of the solution are that it is a very free tool and serves as a very trustworthy product.

Ubuntu Linux requires no improvement or changes since it has been working in excellent condition for the past twenty years.

There are certain shortcomings related to the product's frequency of updates. From an improvement perspective, my company expects the solution to offer less frequent updates.

I have been using Ubuntu Linux for twenty years. In my company, the current version of the product is almost ten to fifteen years old. My company did not find any reason to switch to the latest version of the product as the version we use is good.

Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.

Though my company was not required to use the scalability features of food by the solution, I believe that it is quite good.

Two or three people in my company use the solution.

My company has no plans to increase the number of uses of the solution.

I have never interacted with the solution's technical support.

My company previously used an HCI operating system but moved to Ubuntu Linux since the former was expensive to operate.

The product's initial setup phase was very straightforward.

The solution can be deployed in ten to fifteen minutes.

Two technical people can work separately without much interaction to take care of the solution's deployment and maintenance phases.

A consultant for SAP helped my company with the product's implementation phase, which took about an hour.

I have experienced an excellent return on investment from the use of the solution.

There are no payments to be made towards any licensing costs attached to the solution.

I suggest that those planning to use the solution migrate their complete enterprise software to Ubuntu Linux, as it is a really good product.

I rate the overall product a ten out of ten.

I'm using it for a file server and for MySQL servers. Those are my primary uses.

The solution is easy to install and easy to update.

You can scale the solution quite well.

The solution has a bit of a learning curve. It's not too high, however, you do need to understand the solution to deploy it and work with it effectively.

I've used the solution for a while. I've used it extensively in the last 12 months at least, and over the last two years in general.

The stability is mostly pretty good. The only issue with stability was with power knocking out, and therefore I put a UPS on it. That seemed to solve any issues going forward. It doesn't crash or freeze. There are no bugs or glitches. It's quite good now.

Linux offers very good scalability potential. If a company needs to expand it, it can do so.

I just use the solution for personal use. I don't have a big team using it.

I've never used technical support in the past. I can't speak to how helpful or responsive they are.

While I've been a Mac person since the Mac first came out in 1984, I've added Linux for my server items. I didn't really switch to anything else; I've just added onto what I already do.

It's an operating system and when you install an operating system new, there are all sorts of things you have to go do and go read up on such as how do I do this and how do I do this? For me, it went very, very well, however, it's not something I can do in an afternoon. It took several days to get everything proper. However, it went well so there are no complaints at all in terms of the initial setup.

I can't speak to Unbuntu versus Red Hat or other Linux solutions, however, I am aware that some people use them.

I'm using the solution more for myself. I'm just an end-user. I don't have a business relationship with Linux.

I'm using the latest stable version. If they publish a stable version and then they publish an experimental option, I won't use it. I'll stick with the stable option. 

It's not something that you run on the cloud. It's what's behind cloud services. I've got an Ubuntu machine at home that I use regularly, but it is also my MySQL server and a file server, all in one box.

FileMaker, I know very well and MySQL, I'm learning quickly. Linux, I'm a beginner admin on it. I'm not in a position to make any comments pro or con enough, as I don't know enough about it to make a valid comment.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. I've been very happy with it.

The solution is used for sandboxing and testing. We also have our production servers in Linux sometimes.

The product is easy to access and deploy. There are a lot of communities that help administrators with any challenges. Good support is available over the Internet. It is quite helpful for creating any server. Many communities are working on the upcoming advanced features and making them easier for the end users.

The integration with other solutions like Apache is valuable.

Official support is low. We’re mostly dependent on community users. The vendor must provide an official support team. Administration is a challenge. We need good skills for implementation.

I have been using the solution for 10 to 12 years.

The product is quite stable. I rate the stability a nine out of ten.

The tool is scalable. I rate the scalability a nine out of ten. We usually publish our web servers on it. It is for production purposes. Five to six people from our organization are working on Linux administration. We also have developers developing applications on it.

We used CentOS. CentOS is now decommissioned, so we moved to Ubuntu Linux.

I rate the ease of setup a seven out of ten. Ubuntu is a command-line tool. It will be a bit of a challenge for new users. The cloud deployment takes four to six hours. If we already have VMs on-premise, we can deploy them in four to six hours. We just need to install an image and build it in. Nowadays, we have readymade images available as a container. It hardly takes one hour to get the server up and running. One person is enough for the deployment.

The solution is open-sourced.

If someone wants to create cheap servers, Ubuntu Linux is the best choice. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.
