Ubuntu Linux Reviews

Ubuntu Linux is an operating system and we use it for day-to-day operations.

Ubuntu Linux could improve by having more out-of-the-box functionality for common plug-and-play devices, such as printers. It's sometimes more difficult to plug-and-play printers with Ubuntu Linux. You need to work a bit and make some drivers work. They need to work a bit on plug-and-play devices.

I have been using Ubuntu Linux for approximately a few years.

The solution is scalable, it is open-source, and can be developed. You are able to install it on many different systems.

I have used Debian and Microsoft Windows previously.

The installation of the Ubuntu Linux tool is approximately 10 minutes.

I did the implementation of the solution myself.

I am very satisfied with Ubuntu Linux and I would recommend it to others.

I rate Ubuntu Linux a nine out of ten.

We primarily use it for our personal applications. We use it in our day-to-day work. 

It's easy to deploy.  We can deploy it whenever we want. 

It's great to use with the Linux system. They work well together. 

If you know what you want to program, they make it very easy to do so. 

The solution is very stable. It's great for security and it is very safe.

The installation process is simple.

We don't have enough information about this system. When we run into problems, we'd like for it to be more clear what a valid solution might be. For example, if I try to deploy a certain technology, I have to look all over the internet to figure out how to accomplish this. There aren't enough experts in my country to be able to help troubleshoot or to post answers to problems. I'm not sure if there are enough domestic or regional experts who know enough about the solution.

The interface could be better.

I have used this solution for quite a long time. It's been more than five years.

The solution is quite stable. Its performance is good. There are no bugs or glitches. it doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable. 

I'm not sure if the product is scalable. I haven't attempted to scale it and therefore could not accurately comment on that aspect.

We have the solution in different departments and on different servers. In our department, maybe five or six people use it. 

We don't get technical support from people. If we need an answer to a problem, we need to seek it out online. 

I have found that the solution is

That said, it depends on the type of server that you are using. You need to ensure it has enough resources. The deployment is quick and we were able to do it in 30 minutes or so.  

While we have a technical team of about 15 people in our department that can handle deployment and maintenance tasks, there are other departments and other people on different teams that can as well.

I'm quite comfortable with the solution. I can handle the implementation process myself. I did not need the help of any integrators or consultants. 

The solution is free to use and free to explore. People can go ahead and discover it and experiment with it. 

I would recommend the product to other users and other companies. It's a good solution in general. 

I'd rate the solution at a seven out of ten.

What makes Ubuntu easy to use is the large set of applications and the interface. The graphical interface is user friendly.

When installing software, an online interface has to be used and commands written to run the installation. The solution could be improved if it was possible to click twice in an icon for the installation process to begin. 

In the next release, I would like to be able to use Microsoft Office within Linux. 

.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten. 

I am using it for my personal use. I am mainly using it for some experimental things. 

I am using its latest version.

Its performance is valuable. I am satisfied with it.

They can improve the interface and give it an appearance similar to the Windows 11 operating system.

I have been using it for eight years.

It is stable.

It is scalable. We can scale it.

I have never used their support.

I have used Windows and Unix.

Its initial setup is straightforward. If I remember correctly, it took around 10 to 15 minutes.

I did it on my own.

On a personal level, I'm using the free version.

I would recommend it to others. I would rate it a 10 out of 10.

There aren't exactly any particular features, but in general, it's the most compatible for us.

Up until now, I don't have any issues with Ubuntu, but one thing that could be improved is that there are no repair options for the existing Ubuntu installation. You can do a new installation, which is what I've seen, but you can't repair the broken existing installation, or recover from an OS that's broken down.

I've been using it for that past six years.

It is very stable and there are supports for the newer drivers, or support from the community and from the Ubuntu on help documents.

I have not used Ubuntu technical support directly. I've mostly used the community and documents available.

I don't use the enterprise version. I use the open source version, so it doesn't have any licenses.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

My advice would be that Ubuntu is very widely used and you can easily get help and technical guidance from community members.  Support for the hardware drivers are there.

We primarily use the solution for running some applications and for various apps or software. It provides integration with operating systems.

The solution is stable.

The scalability is good.

In terms of deployment, it's a pretty quick process. 

Ubuntu's safe and fast. People have migrated from Windows to Linux due to this.

It's offered as open-source, and therefore does not cost anything to use. 

There is a strong community around it that can help with troubleshooting.

I don't have many technical insights about the product. I can't speak to what features are missing. 

For user interfaces, there are other operating systems such as Windows and Mac that are more user-friendly. Linux does not provide a user-friendly interface.

We've been using the solution for quite a while. It's been five years or so. 

The stability is good overall. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable. The performance is good.

The solution does not need to be scaled. 

We have 30 to 35 users on the solution currently.

We might increase usage in the future. However, it's hard to say, as we have many Mac users as well. They would not migrate to Linux Ubuntu.

We've never contacted technical support. It's open-source. There is a growing community around it. The tech support is only available through that community.

The initial setup is pretty straightforward. It's not too difficult or complex. 

The deployment takes about 30 or 40 minutes. It's fairly quick. 

I can handle the implementation myself. I don't need the help of integrators or consultants. 

The solution is open-source. It's free to use. We don't have to pay for it.

We're using the latest version of the solution.

I'd rate the solution at a seven out of ten.

This solution is ideal for people who want to build safer applications or if their goal is to quickly do their development. Those types of users should definitely try this system.

I have installed Ubuntu Desktop on my personal laptop. 

Nowadays, you can do everything with a browser, meaning you don't need a vulnerable, fancy solution like Windows for example.

I am aware that they package some versions that are lightweight and are not so process or memory-intensive however, I would like to see an even more lightweight version because I believe it is possible.

I have using Ubuntu for about 15 years and intend to increase my usage.

Ubuntu is very stable, I have zero issues.

I used Windows for a very long time, however my specialty has been on Unix systems.

I did the initial setup on my own. It takes about two hours, unattended, as it takes time to update and download.

I do not pay a licensing fee for this operating system.

I would recommend Ubuntu Linux. If people are scared of Linux machines they don't need to be, it is as simple as Windows. Don't be scared of the fact that it says Linux on the box, it's a desktop in itself.

I would rate Ubuntu Linux an 8 out of 10.

I have used versions 16, 18 and 20, mainly the first two. 

We mostly use the solution for development purposes and also test it on products before and after their release. 

The solution has a unique flavor. It is difficult to hack. It has good security features and, from a developer's point of view, provides greater control, including in respect of the processes, internals, networking and IO and voice usage, everything really. 

While there are not many features which need to be added, we sometimes are forced to resort to Google Drive sync or OneDrive sync, owing to the lack of availability of certain Microsoft solutions. The team is disparately comprised nowadays, some of whom may be using Microsoft. This would, in turn, require one to use Microsoft himself and there is some compatibility which is simply lacking. Generally speaking, it's okay. Nowadays, everything is moving to the cloud, making browser-based usage easy. 

It would be nice to see more compatibility with certain Microsoft solutions, such as OneDrive. One would want to sync OneDrive, in which case, when the client makes the data available there, we would have easy access to it. These kind of syncing features are not fast. 

We have been using Ubuntu Linux for more than three or four years. I have been using it for 20. 

When it comes to the stability of Ubuntu Linux versus that of Windows, the former, in respect of developer machines, is less energy consuming, which translates into a longer shelf life. 

The stability is one of the reasons that we use the solution. 

The solution is scalable and easy when it comes to the storage RAM. There is no need to do anything extra. 

One of the reasons we use the solution is for its scalability. 

We have not required canonical support. There is a good online community for support issues which may arise and, as things are easy and straightforward, I generally rely on Google. 

In the past we used RHC Fuse, SUSE and Unix, as Ubuntu was not an option. 

Nowadays, SUSE is considered antiquaited and Linux Ubuntu new. 

The initial setup is straightforward and very quick. 

I do not believe we have required any staff for the deployment and maintenance as of yet. So far, everything has been straightforward and easy. 

The main advantage of Unix is that it's free. 

Windows Unix and Ubuntu provide a free license and one need just pay for the hardware. Mac is costly. Ubuntu provides a cheaper and better option. 

There are those who prefer Windows for its UI features, but I am not one of them. 

When it comes to the stability of Ubuntu Linux versus that of Windows, the former, in respect of developer machines, is less energy consuming, which translates into a longer shelf life. 

We prefer both Mac and Unix. 

The main advantage of Unix is that it's free. 

Windows Unix and Ubuntu provide a free license and one need just pay for the hardware. Mac is costly. Ubuntu provides a cheaper and better option. 

However, the price criteria is not why we use Ubuntu Linux, but because it is scalable, stable and developer-friendly. 

Around 50 to 70 percent of our staff make use of Unix and Mac, because we are all developers and like these solutions. 

The salespeople make use of Recruitment HR. They use Windows, as do some of the junior staff. However, most of the developers and all of the senior ones use Unix, Ubuntu and Linux. 

I cannot think of any particular advice I would impart to others looking into implementing the solution. 

As I cannot think of any issues I have with Ubuntu Linux, I rate it as a ten out of ten.
