Best in Class Operating System For Developers
What do you like best about the product?
The bests are the Clutter - free UI, attractive icons with simplifed titles, open source and softwares, inbuilt unbuntu store and smooth experience. Above all, I love the installation process and time it takes to boot and start process. It's fast and best, and works much better in lower end computers and laptops.
What do you dislike about the product?
I could not see any cons. At the same time, I have to say, Ubuntu is not for creative designers and professionals who work with graphic softwares. It lags while using the alterative desiging softwares and won't meet the needs of a creative graphic designer. But, Ubuntu is best for word processing, browsing, attenting online classes, exams via video conferencing tools and other professional works.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Ubuntu, I was able to make my lower end pc's work super fast alike the modern one. Also, with opensource tools, and easy installable OS, I am able to switch off the pc without any hassles. Since, I mostly work online with word processing tools, linux based office tools helps me a lot.

1. It is totally free, which means we do not need to buy a license to use it. We just need to download the Image from the Internet and install it on our PC.

1. The installation of Ubuntu is difficult and could be challenging when you are installing it for the first time.

Ubuntu - the Linux gold standard for desktops

Ubuntu will be very easy to learn for users coming from Windows. Also, since it's a Linux distro, the terminal is closeby to do whatever you need for software development.

Nothing, really. At times, package management can be interesting but that's common with any Linux flavor.

Ubuntu can be setup like Windows and can be easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
It's free, easy to install. Ubuntu runs on older hardware, has a built-in office sweet and is less of a target for hackers.
I find the online community helpful and community support is free.

What do you dislike about the product?
That it has not gotten easy enough for an average user still requires some know-how to get everything set up.
If Ubuntu is going to be mainstream, it needs to become easier for the average person to use. having to run Windows application tHrough WINE and be very difficult to set up and can be buggy.

If you're looking to set up an older desktop or laptop for email and internet use the Ubuntu is a good choice.
A review of Ubuntu as used for the Oracle VM VirtualBox
What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu provides a simple linux platform, that is easily setup (compared to other linux platforms) and accessed from a non linux computer. I am a new linux user, and found this program to be far superior to the few other linux platforms that I tried to work with.
What do you dislike about the product?
I often have errors when starting my virtual machine from Ubuntu. These errors are typically resolved by accepting the error message and just re-pressing the start button multiple times in the VirtualBox environment.
The initial setup was difficult inside the VirtualBox environment, however, there were many resources available to help me setup up Ubuntu. Once I found the proper online manual, it was much easier.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There is no linux functionality built in to my Windows computer, so I am using Ubuntu hosted by Oracle VirtualBox. It is much easier than downloading a virtual linux platform without using Ubuntu - this created a lot of complications on my end and had very little functionality for a brand new linux user. Ubuntu allows me to drag and drop files between my vritual machine and host, copy and paste files, and easily allow programs to run in the virtual environment while working from the host. There are lots of solutions available online for setup and promlem solving with Ubuntu.

What do you dislike about the product?
With latest updates, it requires lot off memory and disk space. So in order to run it efficiently as a VM , you need a good host with good processing power.
There should be more softwares already installed in Ubuntu rather then downloading them afterwards.

My experience using Ubuntu
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to install almost any popular application (packages)
Ubuntu's repository has all kinds of dpkg packages.
I rarely need to build a package from its source code.

Compare with Windows. Ubuntu has much less consumer software (games, multimedia)
However, if you use Ubuntu only for work, this is not a problem.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Ubuntu to develop software. The products of my company are all Linuxed-based machines. (Storage, Switch, etc.)
Since it's easy to install any package on Ubuntu, it's effortless to make a proof of concept quickly before I start to implement it on our Linux-based products.
