What do you like best about Apple OS X Mountain Lion?

It's more user-friendly with a better UX interface and an interactive notification center, and you can see updates in your apps across all of your iOS devices. iCloud is more integrated and better formatted for document storage. Reminders in the Notes app are helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apple OS X Mountain Lion?

iCloud is not as intuitive as say, Google Drive, for example. Documents created in the Cloud are only accessible via supporting apps and are not universal, adding a little bit of inconvenience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Apple OS X Mountain Lion solving and how is that benefiting you?

Apple OS x Mountain Lion allows me to work seamlessly across my devices, from document creation and storage to managing reminders and notifications. It's comprehensive and has everything I need all in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Apple OS X Mountain Lion?

One of the most helpful features of Apple OS X Mountain Lion is its integration with iCloud. This allows users to easily sync and access their documents, contacts, and other important information across multiple devices. Additionally, Mountain Lion also includes a feature called AirPlay Mirroring, which allows users to wirelessly stream the display of their Mac to an Apple TV, making it easy to share content with others. Another helpful feature is integrating social media services like Twitter and Facebook into the operating system, allowing users to easily share content and stay connected with friends and family. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apple OS X Mountain Lion?

One downside of Apple OS X Mountain Lion is that Apple no longer supports it. This means it will no longer receive security updates or technical support, making it vulnerable to security risks. Additionally, newer software and apps may not be compatible with Mountain Lion, which can limit the operating system's functionality over time.

Another downside is that some users may find the system requirements for Mountain Lion to be relatively high, making it difficult to run on older or less powerful Macs. This can also make it difficult for users to upgrade their existing Macs to run Mountain Lion.

Additionally, some users may find the new interface changes and features in Mountain Lion confusing or unnecessary, making it more challenging to use the operating system.

It's also worth noting that OS X Mountain Lion was released in 2012, which means it is not as recent as the latest version of macOS and does not contain all the features and improvements that have been made. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Apple OS X Mountain Lion solving and how is that benefiting you?

One benefit I would have is the integration with iCloud, which allows for easy syncing and access to my essential files and information across multiple devices. This can be particularly useful because I use various Macs and need my knowledge on the go. Another benefit I would have is the inclusion of AirPlay Mirroring, which allows for easy sharing of content with others by wirelessly streaming the display of a Mac to an Apple TV.

You are forced to use a Mac computer/hardware to use this OS, yes I know there's potential for virtualization, but for support you need to use it on Apple hardware. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is developer friendly by default, has a *nix shell which is helpful when going back and forth with DevOps tools.

What do you dislike about Apple OS X Mountain Lion?

There was not much to dislike on Mountain Lion. It was very complete for the Apple eco system at the time. As they continued on sunetting backwards compatibility, I kept yearning for the nostalgic 90s. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
