UBUNTU LIKE
What do you like best about the product?
Open source that means I can customezed in the way that I like
What do you dislike about the product?
The Window Manager I prefer the old ones like GNOME
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can duplicate the same installation and configuration for all my dev team
In a sea of operating systems : Ubuntu stands out.
What do you like best about the product?
Taking into consideration that one mostly or usually installs it over a Windows system (which they don't have to do & experiment it much less often), I appreciate :
i) ease of installation, update (livepatch, landscape or not).
ii) locating applications that are approved is a cinch via the software-boutique
iii) I trust Canonical to make a secure product that rivals the best out there.
iv) interesting the chose to leave the apt-get, apt but can combine with snap and others for package management.
v) landscape is a terrific product especially if combined with a remote access web interface (like dwservice).
vi) I can install it on a newbie's unit and they are up and running very quickly - the learning curb between windows 7 and ubuntu 24.04 mate is easy to overcome.

What do you dislike about the product?
I am a user but also a system administrator, so for what I do :
a) I don't find the default gnome interface as intuitive or user-friendly as Mate, LXDE or others.
b) some products don't have a smooth installation documentation even after several attemps, like OpenStack - whereas MicroStack was much more compliant.
c) my perception is that it's starts to get complicated to be a member of the various forums : ubuntu, charm, ...etc.
d) this is not a dislike, but somehow too many business will opt for redhat, when I feel they could get more with Canonical and Ubuntu.
e) I've run into issues attempting to un-install some products (openstack) as it seems to integrate deeply with many components : unlike a lighter product like virtualbox.

A Technical and Functional Approach
What do you like best about the product?
Even for beginners, the interface is clean, elegant, and easy to use. Ubuntu is based on Debian, so it is very reliable and receives frequent security updates. Apt makes software installation very easy, and Ubuntu supports Snap, Flatpak, and .deb.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some apps via Snap take a long time to open and consume more resources. And you don't always have the option to use another version. For older machines, the "standard" Ubuntu can be a bit heavy. Versions like Xubuntu or Lubuntu are lighter. Proprietary drivers (e.g., Nvidia) sometimes cause headaches. Although it has improved a lot, support can still fail in specific cases.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ubuntu is free and open source, eliminating the need to pay for operating systems or basic software. It has a robust permissions system, making it less vulnerable to viruses and malware common in Windows. Ideal for environments that require security.
