What do you like best about Kubuntu?

What I like the most is how reliable this OS is, really good and performs well too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kubuntu?

I think that this OS needs to be a bit more user-friendly, not everyone would use it on a day-to-day basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Kubuntu?

Ease of use, geared toward Linux and non-Linux users, light the ability to have light and dark themes. It is the best way to introduce anyone into a Unix/Linux environment. Gui is friendly to look at and use. I would recommend it to anyone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kubuntu?

I would like to have a bit more user-friendly integration to allow non-Linux users to have the ability to use and relay in a Unix-based environment and all of the security that this entails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Kubuntu?

System runtime was one of the key points to use kubuntu, a very light distro on resources so we use that at our main database server and it works very well in high traffic also. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kubuntu?

A very little community to help each other, some of the plug and play devices drivers were not available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Kubuntu?

The most important thing about Kubuntu is that it's lightweight and easy to use, just like the windows operating system. And also its supports all the open-source software right out of the box like LibreOffice, and it also has its proprietary email service called the Kmail. Since it's designed in the KDE environment, it's much faster than Ubuntu. Best for developing cross-compiled applications and firmware for most of the prototyping boards like Raspberry Pi and STM32. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kubuntu?

There is not much to dislike from Kubuntu. There is very few lightweight OS in the market that solve the purpose. Some of my projects require Embedded Systems development, and there are few OS explicitly designed for that, and I must say Kubuntu also meets some of those requirements.
