What do you like best about the product?
I love the flexibility of Ubuntu. It is easy to use from the terminal and easy to use from the GUI. It runs pretty much everything I need to work (hey, even Steam have a lot of AAA games running on it now).
I even like the odd glitches that arise and the ensuing delves into stack overflow to try and fine some arcane fix for them.

What do you dislike about the product?
I guess the reduced availability of games is a downside (though that is changing - see comment re Steam); for the time being I will be sticking to my Windows gaming rig for that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easier for dev work as all our services run on Linux servers, also has less compatibility issues with a lot of dev tools when compared to Windows.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You may have a bit of a learning curve coming from Windows. Stick with it, Ubuntu is brilliant and the community is really supportive. After a bit you will wonder why you ever though it was a challenge.

Great operating system.

server with ubuntu
What do you like best about the product?
in a powerful system that helps very easily in operations that are necessary either for operational or laboratory practices, this system has many functions and are easy to install only if you know how to use the system, since it has many features that must be known in order to use it 100% but with the necessary study you can use all or most of the functions for your company and personally.
What do you dislike about the product?
What displeases me about this tool is its complexity because it has a very complex and very long study trajectory, but being able to have clear concepts its use becomes very useful over time. It is a tool that is very powerful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
the last case attended with ubuntu was the configuration of a squid to use it as a transparent proxy in conjunction with a cisco router of the 2800 series and thus be able to have the history of the visited webs of each user of the company in which this configuration was made , it was very effective and the objectives were achieved.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
My recommendation to use this tool is to study it very well before using it, since it deserves to dedicate time to be able to have control of all the functions that this operating system has, besides its learning curve is long and should be taken very seriously if they want to achieve 100% use
Ubuntu for schools

Super stable and reliable, once setup it is set it and forget it. Free, can't beat that.

steep learning curve. Some tutorials online, but commands and command lines take a while to get used to. Now they have a much better gui, but still need to use commands to install most software

We use ubuntu for all our video servers (unifi), as well as our wifi controller (unifi).

plenty of self help articles and videos available. Start small but once you have it working you will be hooked.
