Desktop Linux lack of applications, enterprise Office is cut into the mouth

For desktop deployment Managers who are responsible for large companies, the Linux operating system has long been hailed as the savior of Enterprise end users, who can use Linux to improve the company's desktop deployment at an incredibly low price. For example, Ubuntu desktop and SuSE Linux Enterprise can hear a good enough user desktop and powerful applications and rich browser.

Just a few years ago, Hewlett-Packard and Dell both blowing and rolled out pre-installed Linux operating systems. In addition, in order to seize the Linux market, Google also re-designed for Linux users a user-friendly tablet interface and browser and desktop variant Chrome OS. Linux also showcases countless apps that link to home gadgets. These are due to the low cost of the Linux operating system.

Recently, however, the vice president of IDC Server and system software Solutions has suggested that the Linux operating system, as a computing platform, is unconscious in the end-user, perhaps dead. Linux-based Android and other devices have a large market, but in the desktop market, Linux has almost no sound in the face of large-scale deployments of powerful windows. So what's the cause?

Linux has never been an application

A few years ago, a lot of small open-door vendors have been hot in the Linux operating system more usable, the version is more streamlined. Consumer-facing versions such as Linux Mint have gone to great attention at the time, more convenient app installs, fewer menus and easier management.

But these Linux distributions have never been launched by large companies, and Linux as an operating system for PC clients has never had a foothold in the commercial market. No application has kept Linux away from the office. While individual users and mobile computing devices are changing other applications, the Windows system still occupies a desk in the enterprise market.

The main problem is that enterprise users need a clean user interface, they can quickly apply, can quickly solve business needs. Linux applications are not comparable to Windows, which makes it impossible for many people to use Linux at work.

How to save desktop Linux OS?

For the Linux operating system, how to better develop in the future desktop market?

First Linux needs to add more applications, the application is the root of Linux users, only with their own strong support, Linux will have a better development.

Improve your page, although Linux has always been known for its excellent desktop, but this is more of a self-deception, compared to Mac OS and the ever-powerful Windows 10,linux on the desktop can be said much less.

Improve the working habits of business users. Linux has to reinvent how people work, not just like Dell and Hewlett-Packard offer only Linux desktop options, but also the design that works better for people's current user needs.

Mac OS is a good imitation of Linux, and when your app experience is elevated to a certain level, it's hard to be concerned about it.

Linux life and death for some people, it may not be much, this is a large part of the reason is that it can not be a value for some people, enterprise-class Linux can develop more and more good, many still can bring value to the manufacturer, so the Linux desktop operating system also need to find a place for people to bring benefits.
