83 Ubuntu Testimonials

"That was straightforward because Ubuntu is the most open of the open source distributions."

"It’s very convenient to have a stable platform on which we can develop applications. Now we spend more time working on the fun problems. The things that we’re interested in. That’s why we all got into gaming in the first place."

"These laptops are the Swiss Army Knives of education computing. They give everyone equal access to the Internet – and a full and powerful computing device, instead of just a smartphone or a tablet."

"ESM literally saved our lives. It’s allowing us to upgrade from 14.04 LTS at our own pace."

"When we discovered that Canonical was offering a new, extended support package, we didn’t hesitate to sign up. ESM effectively rendered the security problem a non-issue."

"We use Ubuntu primarily because it is such a stable and reliable operating system. ESM builds on this foundation even further, and helps us deliver an even better service to our clients."

"A new wave of workloads demand breakthrough efficiencies in density, energy, and operational costs which can be scaled to a customer’s IT environment."

"When we were evaluating possible server solutions, we asked Microsoft for some quotations on Microsoft Server 2003 for our servers and Microsoft Windows Vista for our desktops. The licensing costs ruled Microsoft out for us. Implementing Ubuntu on the servers and desktops in our business saved us at least £6,630 in our first month of operations alone."

"The move to Ubuntu Core provides security updates even faster. This in turn gives us the peace of mind that our digital signage devices are secured and that we’re as protected as we can be from the latest hacks or ransomware."

"Canonical's BootStack gave us instant access and all the benefits of a cloud platform with fixed, predictable and manageable cost comparable to public cloud. We have the assurance of a reliable, run by experts cloud platform and can grow and adapt it as we need."

"The LiMux/open source project was a long and iterative one, but after a few years of running such a large Linux base, we realised Ubuntu was the platform that could satisfy our requirements best. By combining the low costs and freedom of open source software with ongoing support for the hardware and applications we need, it was one of the critical elements to the success of this project. Most important was the backing of our politicians throughout the project."

"Ubuntu is a real workhorse. It handles absolutely everything we throw at it. When it comes down to it, Ubuntu just works."

"The user experience is vital and Ubuntu has helped to close the user-friendliness gap with proprietary software that our pilots often complained about. Ubuntu saved us from throwing in the Linux towel and using proprietary software instead. The superb hardware support and short boot time of Ubuntu finally led to the decision to stay with Linux."

"Ubuntu is everywhere, including all the major cloud hosting companies, so we feel at home right away with all our providers. Our operational risk has been reduced even further, thanks to Ubuntu’s Extended Security Maintenance (ESM) for older systems. Ubuntu is also so popular that we can immediately check for answers to any issues on the web, and the right answers and solutions can always be found fast. Ubuntu and ESM just work!"

"We wanted to harness the latest technologies to help us increase efficiency and deliver the best possible services to local citizens."
