Ubuntu is a complete operating system based on Linux, is freely available and has good support from community and professional experts. Ubuntu itself was developed by the Ubuntu community volunteers and we invite you to participate to develop Ubuntu!
The Ubuntu community is formed based on the ideas contained in the Ubuntu philosophy: that software should be available free of charge, that software applications should be used in the local language of each and for the people who have physical limitations, and that users should have freedom to modify the software in accordance with what they need.
About freedom is what makes Ubuntu different from proprietary software (proprietary); not only the equipment you need available free of charge, but you also have the right to modify your software until the software works the way you want.
The following is a public commitment to the Ubuntu team to its users:
Ubuntu will always be free of charge, therefore there will be no additional costs for the “enterprise edition”, we will make all the best jobs Ubuntu is available for all people with the same Free terms.
Ubuntu also provides commercial support from hundreds of companies around the world. Ubuntu is released regularly and can you predict; latest Ubuntu release available every six months. Each release will be supported by Ubuntu with improvements in security and other improvements are free for at least 18 months.
