What do you like best about Kubuntu?

I use Kubuntu because I want an easy to admin system (like Ubuntu) and I prefer KDE to Gnome or whatever Ubuntu is using these days. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kubuntu?

The default drivers for touchpads don't work perfectly with my Thinkpad. Before changing them, the mouse would click randomly while typing and also randomly paste from the clipboard (that last one I think was due to my palm triggering a triple click). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Kubuntu?

When connecting any new device via USB or PCI card Kubuntu automatically detects and installs any device, there is no need to install additional drivers.

Searching for programs from the desktop is the best, I can find what I need from the PC from the desktop of the PC.

This system is based on Ubuntu, a very stable system for programs and daily use in the company or home. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kubuntu?

I have problems with WiFi network card models in laptop, installing drivers is difficult for some Wi-Fi cards, I would like an automatic driver search engine with graphical interface.

Installing the latest Microsoft Office gives errors when I use it, unexpected closures, saving a file is difficult, slow PC. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like Kubuntu because it is a free software based on Linux. It is easy to download, configure and use.

It offers a set of office, email and music applications ready to use at startup. It has a comfortable and friendly desk that has an accessible menu in which you can run any program. You can do all kinds of work, it is fast and offers stability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Kubuntu?

Kubuntu boasts the famous KDE PLasma interface that is much like the Windows 10 interface with a taskbar at the bottom, menu button bottom left but it's so much more. KDE Plasma is famous for being the most configurable interface available today. It's slick and smooth, highly functional and easy to get used to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kubuntu?

The latest Kubuntu 19.10 did not get released with the latest version of KDE Plasma 17.1 but that is easily remedied by adding the Kubuntu backports repository. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
