Ubuntu Linux Reviews

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.

I have used the solution for creating databases. 

It has a good support system for loading databases. 

The support can be improved. 

I have been using Ubuntu Linux for a year. 

It is a stable solution. 

It is a scalable solution.

The initial setup is straightforward. 

I would rate the overall solution a nine 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.

Ubuntu Linux is easy to start, and MicroK8s is easy to deploy. Plug into the back-end storage and networking is also easy.

It is good to start with 3-4 nodes, but hard to scale. For production grades like 20 or 100 nodes, we go with the RedHat for on-premise.

The support team is not good and needs to be improved. The user community is excellent and helpful, but some questions are unanswered. Also, stability and scalability could be improved.

I have been using Ubuntu Linux as an end user for six years.

The tool could be more stable.

The product’s scalability is not better. RedHat is better. We’ve more than ten users using this product. We plan to increase the usage when there is a requirement or specification.

The initial setup is easy. Deploying OS is fast and takes less than a day.

We can do the installation on a small scale without consultants, but when it comes to scale.

Ubuntu is an OS. You need the specification, storage, network, IP, etc., and deploy it by orchestration or just do the standalone installation infrastructure.

If the customer wants to start, there is no license required. It is all free, but they must purchase the production license.

Mostly, the product is on-premise, but in some cases, we managed to deploy applications in the cloud.

The solution is easy and simple to start because of complete documentation. When you go for production, we must purchase the hardware and OS license.

Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

We use Ubuntu Linux in development environments, specifically for testing purposes, as it can be a versatile alternative to Windows in various scenarios.

The platform is easy to use compared to Windows.

The product could be compatible with Microsoft.

I rate the platform's stability a ten out of ten.

We used SUSE Linux a long time ago.

The initial setup process is simple and takes a few minutes to complete.

We can implement the product in-house.

Ubuntu Linux is an open-source product that is free to use.

I recommend Ubuntu Linux to others and rate it a ten out of ten. It has a nice user interface and provides frequent updates. I advise others to install and try using it.

I'm not doing coding with Ubuntu or the whole shorthand thing. I use the browser and stuff like that. I use it the way it's intended. If I download an ISO or particular distro, I use it, and if I don't like it, I find another one.

Ubuntu doesn't use a lot of resources. So I think that's pretty cool. It's totally like Microsoft.

I started using Ubuntu this year, so not very long.

Ubuntu Linux is stable. It's now on the 16th edition I think, which just recently came out. I have a paid education license. 

Ubuntu might work for a bigger company, but I don't think so. Again, you would have to get the right people to do it. You need somebody technical. If you have a bunch of people who aren't technical, then it is just going to be a headache trying to get a feel for it or teach them. Microsoft is easier. You can do this, do that, implement, push it out, or whatever. 

I never had to reach out to tech support for anything. Usually, I can find what I need by Googling it and getting an answer from the online community.

I've used a few different Linux distributions, but I didn't like the look and feel. So I don't like the other version. I forget what the other version is. There are two other versions. X Force is the blank version. I don't like that version. And I don't really like Gnome, either. 

The initial setup is straightforward. You mount the ISO, download the ICE route, and run it on whatever you want to run it. If you want to try it out, you try it out. If you want to install it, you install it. Blow away your geo part chips, and that's it.

I rate Ubuntu Linux nine out of 10. I can't really say much about using it for server purposes, and I don't know anybody who would deploy Ubuntu in a user environment. Most people are not technical, so that's not something they want to deal with.
