  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I'm ubuntu-desktop user since their first release (4.10), what I like best from ubuntu is it's community, and easy to use. although when I write this review ubuntu has reached 20.10 release, but I'm still comfort with 18.04.
What do you dislike about the product?
at early release, lot's of hardware and printers won't work correctly, but since ubuntu 14.04 that problem began to solved one by one.

But sometimes when you do major version upgrade, your ubuntu installation will broke, so I recommend do backup of your datas, and do clean install instead of upgrade.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
my main work is software developing, ubuntu has provide many developer tools ready to use, and many of them is free-software.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
ubuntu is easy to use from entertainment to production needs
