We performed a comparison between Ubuntu Linux and Windows 11 based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Operating Systems (OS) for Business solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."You can scale the solution quite well."
"I like its computation speed compared to Windows and other similar features."
"They have provided a new interface, which is great."
"The GUI is user-friendly."
"It keeps you secure from virus and malware attacks."
"The trifecta comprising the solution's most valuable features consists of its stability, security and performance."
"There is a lot of freedom and flexibility to install it really quickly. It is just very powerful in the sense that it doesn't take up as many resources to run as some of the other operating systems. It is open source, so it is free. There is no licensing fee. There is flexibility and freedom to do whatever you need to do. If you are familiar with the command line, you can jump on the command line and configure almost any part of the operating system that you want. If you are not comfortable with the command line, the graphical user interface has really improved ever since I started using Linux back in high school. It is really very simple to manage your settings and other things. You can also try out multiple desktop environments. As a matter of fact, on one of my laptops, I have installed five different desktop environments, and I can switch between them. If you don't like one, you can easily just install another one with a few commands, and you have got a whole new desktop right there, whereas, in Microsoft Windows or a Mac, you are just stuck with whatever they give you, and you have to wait until they sell you something else."
"The initial setup is very easy."
"Windows 11 is a stable and easy-to-use solution."

"Windows 11 is an easy-to-use solution."
"The solution should have more personal use applications for this platform."
"The solution could be more stable and secure."
"They aren't as user-friendly as Microsoft. The solution can use a better UI."
"Ubuntu could be improved with more container integration and orchestration of those containers. We are looking to have more cloud-based solutions, like Docker, and container-based solutions, or Kubernetes-based solutions integrated with Ubuntu. Instead of going for VMs, we would like to have more container-based solutions on top of Ubuntu."
"Better integration between the interface of the software and the operating system itself would be a benefit in the future."
"The stability definitely can be improved. When we are implementing patches and new releases, it tends to fail."
"The ZFS needs improvement. They do an implementation of the ZFS storage that needs improvement."
"The solution could be better integrated with Microsoft."
"Sometimes the Windows 11 system hangs, and its stability could be improved."
