Overall Satisfaction with Debian OS

Debian OS is an operating system which is aimed and designed to work in a very smooth and fast way. The developer-friendly feature of Debian OS is particularly useful for companies like us as we developers use various programming languages to develop and support various client applications in our day to day life. We use it across organization for various good reasons.
  • Runs smooth and fast.
  • Supports many tools since it being an OSS.
  • Has got rich software feature and great backend support.
  • Having frequent updated versions to its feature set could have been better.
  • Great OSS operating system with few glitches in their menus here and there.
  • Very few times, running multiple Debian OS in a VM environment may overheat and lag.
  • Being open source software.
  • Very much similar to Ubuntu as there are many past Ubuntu users.
  • Running smooth and fast with minimal hardware configurations.
  • As Debian is pretty similar to Ubuntu, saves lot of learning times for employees.
  • Many tools which need to be bought in other OSes, are free to use here.
  • With very few crashes of its operating system, it certainly improves reliability.
When compared to others, Debian runs smoother and faster and has great support for feature set with it. Even installing other supporting tools or IDEs for development work is pretty easier. With few simple commands and a good internet connection all the debian packages from the Internet can be easily fetched and installed on you systems.

Since Debian OS is an open source software distribution, it is feature rich with good integration of pre-loaded tools with the operating system itself. Many more tools required for later supporting tasks can very well be installed with just few commands. Debian OS has great community help and support both from the existing users and the back end supporting technical teams as well. So you will never be left alone if stuck at some point. I don't see any points which take it back.
