A great addition to the team for privacy
Reviewed on Dec 24, 2021
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
The security the UI provided was commendable. Our company wanted to make it a point that personal and official data shouldn't be merged so we needed the support too which has proved to be greatly helpful as Linux was not the native OS for them.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think some more languages could be incorporated, a lot of team members don't have English as their first language. The rates are reasonable so I think they've got it covered in that section.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As I mentioned, we wanted to privatize official data so that there are no mixups. We saw an initial dip in productivity but we're back up and running now.

A Reliable Software with the Right Support
Reviewed on Dec 23, 2021
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
I have been a Linux user, a long time but this has been a great step up in terms of functionality and professional use. There are bugs in every software but the FAQs and the support engineers have been helpful to implement Linux on other team members' systems.
What do you dislike about the product?
The compulsion of root access was a major throw-off to myself and my team members as that causes a lot of ambiguity and mistrust with the software. I'm sure this could be worked upon, going forward. The platform flexibility and customizability can be boosted as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using it as a virtual machine so that all the personal data and professional data has a line in between. We used the support for the folks coming onto this OS for the first time and drew up a long-term contract for the same.
