“Software Center: This is really one of the biggest
enterprise-level additions. Gone will be the Add/Remove Software
tool and (eventually) Synaptic in favor of the Software Center.
Although this tool will be used in the same way as the Add/Remove
Software tool, it will have one thing its predecessor didn’t have –
Commercial Software. That’s right. Now the enterprise (or SMB) user
can go to the Software Center and shop for just about any type of
software you can imagine – including non-free, enterprise-grade
software! All in one very user-friendly tool.

“Ubuntu One: If you’ve used DropBox, you will know and
understand the appeal of Ubuntu One. Ubuntu One is a way to sync
files and folders on more than one PC. With the help of Ubuntu One
you can ensure that the files on your work PC are in sync with
whatever other Ubuntu PC that has Ubuntu One installed. In order to
use Ubuntu One you will have to sign up for an account. You can
sign up for either the free account (which gives you 2 Gigs of
space) or, for $10.00 USD per month, you can get 50 Gigs of
space.”
