Yuan Meng: Ubuntu is updated to attract old Microsoft customers

On September 19, July 31, Ubuntu sponsor Canonical announced the replacement of Ubuntu with a new package to provide new technical support packages (I .e. services ). What do you think of this initiative? On the street, girls are eye-catching. In the market, product packaging attracts customers' attention. Usually, Ubuntu is like a small pet on the street, and no one wants to (dare not) Take it home to raise it. On June 19, July 31, the London-based Caninical Bank issued a ticket to open the announcement that Ubuntu (desktop application) would certainly be able to make good use of all its functions ). In

On the street, girls are eye-catching. In the market, product packaging attracts customers' attention. Usually, Ubuntu is like a small pet on the street, and no one wants to (dare not) Take it home to raise it. On June 19, July 31, the London-based Caninical Bank issued a ticket to open the announcement that Ubuntu (desktop application) would certainly be able to make good use of all its functions ). For beginner Ubuntu users around the world, Canonical provides technical support services by means of network calls and email, which costs only $54.99 a year. For advanced users, only 114.98 USD per year and 218.54 USD for professional users. Note: purchase or not depends on your choice. Ubuntu is still free of charge. You will be charged for the required services. So far, Ubuntu is very hard to support. Do you think this pricing is very expensive? That's because you haven't subscribed to Technical Support Services for Windows and Mac OS recently (meaning it's much more expensive than that ).

In fact, Canonical was doing this right now. At present, on the one hand, thousands of XP users are watching (thinking) whether they are on Windows 7. On the other hand, the new dummies version of Ubuntu is full of wings to fly. Canonical suddenly throws this action, making Microsoft a little unsightly.

Currently, Canonical supports only English and French languages. However, almost all countries around the world have Canonical partners who can provide technical support in their own regions (which requires Canonical support ). There is almost no decent Ubuntu technical support in mainland China. It should be noted that the direct purpose of Canonical to take this new action is for those who disagree with Windows users, rather than for old Ubuntu customers. The main purpose of this operation is to further expand the Ubuntu user base around the world. To put it bluntly, we are trying to seize the old customers of Microsoft.

Obviously, in the current situation, Canonical's move is impossible to make a fortune, and it is good to be equal at most. However, in the long run, the outlook is optimistic. The Network (free) Visual phone is amazing. In terms of technical support, it is equivalent to teaching you in person with hands-on hands, and the effect is great. I believe that the Canonical technical support expert team has been organized and the technical support force is completely trustworthy. No matter how good or even silly Ubuntu products are, it is even better to have technical support services. I log on to the official Ubuntu website and see all the staff who work with full-time technical support services are smiling. I really envy them. Ubuntu is a gift for humans. In addition to the support services provided by volunteers, we have now added specialized commercial support services, so that users can feel at ease. However, some people say that Ubuntu Desktop is junk. This is a bad word. Recently, Canonical joined hands with IBM and Virtual Bridges to launch a Virtual Ubuntu Desktop, which is very technical. The new dummies version of Ubuntu 9.10 will be the benchmark product for Linux desktop, and should not be ignored. It seems that Ubuntu will first develop in economically developed regions. We are one step behind.

Note: In China, the operating philosophy of Canonocal, the product is free, and the service is charged, which has long been thought. The problem is that free products must be popular with users, so that users can spend money to buy your services. Junk products do not require services. To make the technology shine in your hands, you must receive guidance and help from others. In today's situation, people have treasure in their hands, but they do not know how to use it. It is not a new thing. self-starting USB flash drives is an example.
