A simple version control system
What do you like best about the product?
It is really easy to use and it's distributed. It's easier to get started with if you never used a DVCS
What do you dislike about the product?
No clear concept of repo and branch, in general every branch is a repo and every repo is a branch. You can only use on Launchpad
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Versioning our code and allowing developers to work in parallel without conflicting with each other changes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I wouldn't recommend anyone to use Bazaar, use git or mercurial instead as they are truly distributed and are the de-facto standards in the industry. Bazaar gives to the illusion of being distributed but it's like an improved version of SVN. I used it because it was the VCS the company I worked at used, but they've migrated to git.

Ubuntu at university environment
What do you like best about the product?
The security and the desktop user friendliness are the key advantages of Ubuntu. We are using Ubuntu for most of our server environments and for Desktop on some of our client workstations, including University center and a bank institution.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only problem we encountered is the incompatibility with other Linux distributions because of the Ubuntu politics. For example, Ubuntu is using Mir instead of Wayland.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have lowed the IT costs and increased our security. Also, LxC and Docker works very well inside Ubuntu. The main developers of Linux Containers are from Ubuntu!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ubuntu has a Long Time Support version (LTS) which comes one in two years and is supported for six years. It fits well into the enterprise plannings and provides good stability!
Ubuntu as a Desktop as well as as a server
What do you like best about the product?
Open-Source (and free), with all I need to work, surf the web, play media, etc. It is really lightweight and fast, even with older computers which seem not to be powerfull enough to do anything anymore.
It is always up-to-date and really easy to maintain.
It is always up-to-date and really easy to maintain.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much (which is why I use it) ! It may be hard to install on some computer, so you have to check before buying one.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For business, I use it to develop, design and deploy websites. It contains out-of-the-box most of the needed software.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just do it ! If you're afraid to switch completely, try first with a live-cd, it is 100% free and won't make any change to your computer !
