83 Ubuntu Testimonials

"Ubuntu worked out great technically. However, where it was truly remarkable was in the area of community support. Since Ubuntu is so popular, our decision to go 100% Linux-based, including for our recording and mixing consoles, was well supported. The existence of the Ubuntu-Studio community helped us make our decision to drop Pro-Tools, and go with Ardour and Audacity on all our workstations."

"The simple change from Windows and Office to Ubuntu and OpenOffice.org has saved us €2 million per year."

"For the training centres, we chose Ubuntu because it builds on the software package management strengths of Debian, which is used at the Sanger Institute. And because it has out-of-the-box support for a wider range of hardware and local languages."

"Landscape is a good opportunity for Sensape to scale its business without having to get more developers. We have found Landscape easy to integrate, saving us time, and increasing efficiency and scalability. It also helps us to improve quality, enabling us to offer a better, more robust service to our clients. Landscape is a really good tool that everybody in the company can use, not just the IT team. Everyone can get an overview of systems, see what’s going on, and do updates from our website. Now “non-IT experts” can help with support too!"

"In the immediate future, all users working on Ubuntu 10.04 will be migrated to the Ubuntu 12.04 Long Term Support release,” says Zięba. “We are really looking forward to making the move, and reaping the benefits of the enhanced functionality and ease of use built-in to the Unity desktop"

"The ability to go from development to production on the same OS, with the same tools and interface, is invaluable. In fact, it was the main factor in our decision."

"We wanted to be certain that Kubernetes would work with Ubuntu and our other tools. That made Canonical’s distribution an easy choice. Canonical offers a pure version of Kubernetes that works seamlessly with Ubuntu. What’s more, it’s cloud neutral, and we get the added benefit of Canonical’s extensive container expertise."

"At first, we just wanted to save money. But we never expected the free publicity that would result, nor did we expect to launch a profitable new business. For all our success so far, however, it still feels like we are at the beginning of our open source journey."

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

"Using Ubuntu in our smart vending experiences has provided a stable solution in which we can innovate and enhance the traditional vending machine to become smart. With the flexibility to use different versions of Ubuntu to suit each project needs, we have been able to create bespoke solutions across all our clients and customise each solution accordingly."

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