What do you like best about Kubuntu?

Kubuntu has many features I like, the main one being it's free & massively customisable. The installation is smooth and consistent, as with many versions of linux the resource usage is extremely lean and isn't hungry for CPU use, which means those resources can be better used on different processes.

When training end-users on this software, a lot of their knowledge from Windows is transferable to Kubuntu due to the easy to use GUI.

A lot of your knowledge from Ubuntu can be transferred over to Kubuntu, It's basically the same but cleaner.

I love the fact Kubuntu is open source & defines the highest level of security as compared to other Linux Distro's. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kubuntu?

Installing - Partitions has no labels, quite confusing when trying to get 10x machines imaged at the same time remotely. After installations I have noticed a bug with the Wireless Configuration, during the installation wizard the wireless configuration will not remain preserved.

Although I'm a big Linux fan, I feel Kubuntu has moved away from the Linux feel for ease of access and made it more like Windows, this comes at an advantage for training users, but a disadvantage for my personal opinion.

Limited Functionality due to Limited Applications

What do you like best about Kubuntu?

The speed and the UX/UI. As someone who used to be a dev and is now in sales, I still really enjoy using OS' like Kubuntu. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kubuntu?

I'm not sure if it's a dislike, but for non-dev folks or people who aren't the most computer savvy, it's not the most welcoming OS Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
