Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • BunsenLabs make OpenBox very easy to use in a day routine on computer. The base of this operating system is Debian and we can get software from Debian repositories. After install we are presented to a script that helps us to install LibreOffice, OpenJdk and Printer support. Nice job and excellent design. I like the Dragon theme.
  • Openbox window manager. Compact. Runs well on older hardware. Easy to install. Good support (forum). User friendly. Low memory usage. Fast.

Cons

  • 1. The installation is from Debian installer so, we have to read carefully each step on installation, but it just requires more attention, not a handicap; 2. We have to study OpenBox. Not a handicap, but an invite to learn.
  • Sometimes upgrades from Debian versions take a bit longer.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Hardware support. Old 32bit machines stay alive. Large repos. VPN rise up included. Also considers users in repressive regimes. Current software.

Cons

  • Nothing major at all. No respin snapshot. Update distro might break, Debian's structure.
