Ubuntu Server 24.04 LTS User Review

  • January 06, 2025
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
1. Repository (apt) is updated with new packages which are latest one.
2. Systemctl command is more reliable in Ubuntu 24.04 version compare to Ubuntu 22.
3. Boot time taken in Ubuntu 24.04 is very fast compare to my other OS like Centos and Debian 11.
4. Reboot time taken after any configuration change is quite fast compare to Amazon Linux 2 as I did comparison for both OS and can say that AZ2 takes 2 min 4 sec to re-up the server while ubuntu 24.04 takes 1 min 3 sec compare to AZ2 for re-up. So we can say it saves half of the time.
5. It supports maximum range of lower version of Database i.e. mysql, maria-db.
6. Nginx and Apache both web server functions more smoothly in Ubuntu 24.04 OS.
What do you dislike about the product?
1. CPU core process utlization is quite high at start up of any web services like nginx and apache2.
2. SWAP space time to use in case of requirement is quite longer as compare to other OS. When I mount swap partition and try to use it but it was available not immediately but it was available after few more minutes post providing mount point.

So this second point is totally comes inder dislike category as it was totally irritating.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Latest packages which were not available in default repository are added in default repo in Ubuntu 24.04. Same issue was found in ubuntu 20 and ubuntu 22 version. So this is best benefit in my case. because to get latest package, we need to add manual repo and need to get that package from external repo which is resolved now.

I have Ubuntu Server installed on the server to manage networks and databases, users require prior registration and instant security.
I also have a Virtual Machine to verify security and stability of programs and not damage the main server with extra modifications.

Everything, is a great OS, easy to use, have a lot of drivers ready to go and is extremely secure.

Ubuntu has the best range of services available, perfect to install and start using, it also has custom and native programs in the latest Kernel.
Efficient terminal and program execution in error-free.
Easy installation on server or virtual machine.

Ubuntu has strong material but sometimes reboot takes time to run external services, improve RAM usage for parallel server.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Configure user access, security and internal database to improve program and list querying.
Test on virtual machine before installing or downloading updates to the dedicated server version.

Ubuntu server: A very nice experience

  • December 13, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I usually setup servers to host websites and such, and Ubuntu server just makes that job a breeze, it contains all the normal tools you'd want, and is setup quite fast.
What do you dislike about the product?
I honestly don't think I can find anything I particularly dislike about it, it's just plain old ubuntu with no GUI, I would say I'd like to have some sort of web UI available to look at some quick statistics without ssh, but setting that up using external packages isn't hard by any means.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows me to easily install it on a local server or a vm on azure/aws and quickly setup a hosting server for any web application we develop.
