Ubuntu Pro LTS is designed for long-term use and is supported for up to ten years, providing users with a stable and reliable operating system. It includes many security features, including secure boot and AppArmor profiles. It also provides regular security updates and patches to keep your system safe. LTS ensures long-term developer support and ensures forward compatibility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One of the major disadvantages of Ubuntu Pro is the limited choices of custom applications. Major design and creative software titles only exist for Windows/Mac OSs. The Linux OS also has very poor implementation of Directx/Game centric drivers which limit its ability to support the latest game titles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Compatibility with Microsoft Azure, additional security with updates and management tool to execute bulk Linux operations. User friendly, built-in unlimited security. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
A significant negative impact of ubuntu is the limited availability of software in the market. Sometimes, installing software packages on Ubuntu also creates a big mess in systems because those might not be fully compatible or working after the installation.

10 years support from the community.
It really helps for corporate dev environment as OS is not something people like to change easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The support of hardware drivers is still the same as the basic version.
Ubuntu works best for most of the devices but sometimes it fails to deliver drivers for some. I couldn't find anything new in Ubuntu Pro regarding that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
1. Open source, no tracking, no advertisements and it's free.
2. It's really not much resource intensive, you can run it on hardware from 2000s, with minimum specifications.
3. Powerful and functional for development.
4. Support for codecs like LDAC (can be installed) for better audio compared to Windows etc.
5. You won't miss Windows or MacOS that much. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Even though support for codecs is present, all media won't play smoothly by default, sometimes you would need to really test the things to make it actually work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like several features implemented for enterprise needs, such as long-term support and security updates plus it is optimized for cloud workloads and is compatible with a wide range of cloud platforms our company is working to implement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wouldn't say I like its learning curve because it is an advanced Linux distribution designed for users with a certain level of technical experience; they may find it a bit complex. Still, some devices are not fully compatible with the distribution, which causes problems for some users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
