Ubuntu Linux Reviews

I used it before on my laptop, and I was quite happy with it. I had to change back to Windows 8 when we got a new product which is not supported by Linux. To show our product to our customers, I had to go back to Windows. 

I still have an older laptop which is using the Ubuntu version on it. I am still quite happy with it. I have not had so many compatibility problems between Ubuntu and Windows as I have had with Mac.

Our biggest issue is cybersecurity. In 2013, we decided to protect our network with a Linux server. If there is a virus going into the network, it has to pass through an Ubuntu server, which can't be infected by the virus. So, there are less viruses on our systems.

Linux is more stable than Windows. 

An easier to configure firewall would be a good add-on. 

I would like some antiviruses, since what you get on the market is not much. However, if you want to protect your network, there should be an easier way to configure security software since sometimes it can be very difficult.

It is very stable. Previously, I never had a problem. 

Though, I have a problem now. I tried to install Microsoft SQL Server on a new Ubuntu machine, and it is not working at 100 percent. This is following Microsoft's install instructions, not Ubuntu's.

I had a customer who was using NGINX running on Ubuntu servers in three different data centers. After getting more servers behind these NGINX Ubuntu servers, we had to resize everything. This was easily done in a very short amount of time, and we were able to expand the capacity too.

I have never used the technical support.

The initial setup is quite straightforward. Sometimes, I have to read a little bit. I have quite a big eBook with how to's, which I wrote myself. 

It is very cheap. It didn't cost anything to download a Ubuntu server version and install it on an already existing Dell server.

Cisco or Juniper.

Most important criteria when selecting a vendor: sales support.

We are using Ubuntu Linux for testing some VMs.

I'm satisfied with Ubuntu Linux, but it's always good to improve on the performance of any product, including this one.

I've been using Ubuntu Linux for two years now.

Ubuntu Linux is a stable system.

Ubuntu Linux is a scalable solution.

The initial setup for this solution took two days, and it is something that can be done by yourself.

I'm not paying anything for the use of Ubuntu Linux.

I've evaluated Red Hat and Windows 10. I'm still using Windows 10, e.g. I'm using it in parallel with Ubuntu Linux.

I'm using the latest version of Ubuntu Linux. I'm satisfied with this operating system.

We have four to five users of this solution within our organization.

I have not contacted the technical support for Ubuntu Linux yet, because I currently don't have any technical issues.

I'm rating Ubuntu Linux seven out of ten.

I use the solution as a hosting system, processing machine for my machine learning model, and for running applications.

The solution could improve by being more user-friendly, you need to know how to use the command-line interface which you might not understand.

I have been using this solution for approximately three years.

The solution is very stable, it does not need to restart to maintain stability. 

Ubuntu Linux is scalable.

We have approximately 25 people using the solution in my organization.

I use Microsoft Windows Server.

The installation is straightforward, it takes less than 10 minutes.

I did the implementation of the solution.

We have a team of five engineers that do the Ubuntu Linux server maintenance.

The use of the solution is inexpensive and the hardware it needs to operate can be priced very low. There is not a license for the solution but there is for the hardware.

Ubuntu Linux is the perfect solution for us. If they make the solution more user-friendly it will cost more overall. The current version is best.

I rate Ubuntu Linux a nine out of ten.

We are using Ubuntu Linux to run applications.

The solution is user-friendly.

The solution could improve by having the user interface use fewer resources.

I have been using Ubuntu Linux for approximately 10 years.

Ubuntu Linux is a highly stable solution. We have not had any problems at all.

The solution is scalable.

We have only a small number of people using this solution.

The installation is easy, it only takes approximately one hour and we never have any problems.

We have done the implementation ourselves.

Ubuntu Linux is free.

If the organization does not have any Windows-dependent applications, I would recommend this solution.

I rate Ubuntu Linux a nine out of ten.

I have been using this solution for personal use and when I was in college to do some assignments. I typically install it on virtual machines.

I found using this solution pleasurable to learn since it is something different than Windows.

I have been using this solution for approximately two years.

The solution is stable.

There is a large open-sourced community that is helpful. I had a lot of problems when starting out and there was plenty of assistance throughout the community. Since everyone is helping for free the support could be better. However, this is typical when you are dealing with open-sourced solutions.

The installation was very easy and it took approximately 30 minutes.

I did the implementation myself. I installed Ubunto Linux on virtual machines which not everyone knows how to do it. You need to have prior technical knowledge.

One of the main reason users use this solution is because it is free.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Ubuntu Linux an eight out of ten.

We are using this solution for one of our projects where it requires an open-source toolchain for web application development.

The tools we are using for this project are compatible with this solution.

I have been using this solution for a couple of months.

The solution could be more stable.

We use and have previously used Windows 10 which is a lot better.

The installation does not take too much time to complete. It took approximately three hours.

We used help from an expert engineer to do the implementation. 

We do not like this solution and we are only using it because the project we are working on demands it. 

I rate Ubuntu Linux a five out of ten.

It is used for everything. We use it for our mail server and cloud solution server. You can also use it as an Active Directory (AD) Server instead of a Windows Server.

It is stable and modern.

It should be easier and lighter. I am more experienced in working with CentOS, and I find CentOS much easier to use than Ubuntu. Ubuntu is more complicated than CentOS. Ubuntu is also heavier for hardware than centOS.

I have been using this solution for several years.

It is stable.

It is scalable. Its usage is being increased all the time.

I have never used their support. I am technical support.

I only use the server version.

It is open source.

I would recommend this solution. I would rate Ubuntu Linux a seven out of ten.

The primary use case for Ubuntu is as a Linux operating system.  

The security features are what I find most valuable. It is very secure by default.  

I think that the Ubuntu user interface should be improved. It could be simplified. We have not seen any real improvement in the last kernel, which we expected to happen with the latest release.  

But the user interface should be improved because it is not very user-friendly.  

I have been using Ubuntu Linux for five years.  

The product is stable. We do not have problems with downtime.  

We have hundreds of people using the solution and we do not see a problem with scalability. Most of these people are end-users. I think six of those people are administrators to help to maintain the product.  

The technical support is okay. We do not have to get in touch with them often but when you need them the support is there.  

I think that the initial setup was easy.  

It is not very expensive.  

I definitely recommend Linux Ubuntu. It is a good solution.   

On a scale from one to ten where one is the worst andten is the best, I would rate the product as an eight-out-of-ten.
