One of the easiest to use Linux operating systems
What do you like best about the product?
I like that's very similar to windows talking about the user interface, which is easy to navigate and use, and a Windows user can switch to Ubuntu without much trouble. You can find in Ubuntu a "Windows" interface with a lot of customization. All this with the advantages of the free source and the Linux operating system.
What do you dislike about the product?
I hate installing drivers so much, it's not as easy as in Windows and you need to download the drivers and the package promptly, and it freezes sometimes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used it for many projects in my computer engineering career, to simulate 3D environments with physics through an openg based qt editor.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are a Windows user and consider Ubuntu or KDE, choose Ubuntu, it is so easy to do and you will find that the transition between Windows and Linux is not a big problem. I think it's a really friendly operating system.

Although Common Always Changing
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about this product is that it has a wide user base so that if you every get into trouble the answer is usually a quick Google away
What do you dislike about the product?
What I really don't like is that the back end keeps changing on what Ubuntu include and what they don't or just basically how they do things changes from one LTE version to the next
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are utilizing this in our labs and as they are labs we are trying to keep the cost down and hence why Ubuntu and not Redhat (yes we could have used Centos but here we are use to the Debian flavour hence Ubuntu)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Each Company needs to select its own flavor of Linux if it chooses to go down that path
A million times better than windows

The online support community is huge and there's really nothing it can't do.

Best way to get comfortable with command line
The best open source operating system!!!
What do you like best about the product?
I have been using Ubuntu for more than 10 years and I have had zero problems, I have never had to format the laptop because it was slow as it happens with Windows, I have only formatted when I had to change the version of Ubuntu LTS, that is, every 4 years!!!!
What do you dislike about the product?
Absolutely nothing, plus everything is very configurable, you can adapt it to different desktops, it starts very quickly and especially if you have it installed on an SSD, I have three laptops and on all three I have Ubuntu installed, on one of them with SSD and it starts in just 3 seconds.... 1-2-3!!!!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solves many problems, especially because it is open source, meaning you don't pay anything for it, it has a very large community that helps you with everything, there are large groups on Telegram where they help you, the installation is very simple, etc. etc.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You will forget about paying money for a license, nor will you pay for Microsoft Office since it comes with LibreOffice integrated, which is the same and compatible with all documents, Word, Excel, etc. It is very fast in execution, very lightweight, and I am pleasantly happy to have been using it for over 10 years!!
