All about Ubuntu Software Center
If you're using a Linux system, there's a high chance that you're currently running Ubuntu or other Ubuntu-based ones. Ubuntu is one of the simplest Linux distros that offers the most abundant software availability. Ubuntu Software Center is a really powerful tool to help you get all the necessary software you need for basic to moderate-advanced usage. This is a nice GUI tool that relieves you from the necessity to run commands for installing any software.  From the software center, you can install, purchase and remove software from your system. This also works more like a major software handling tool. However, Ubuntu Software Center isn't for installing/uninstalling DEB packages and in cases, the command-line method is more reliable than this GUI tool.

Ubuntu Software Center

If you're using Ubuntu or any Ubuntu flavor, then you already have the Ubuntu Software Center. In case your system doesn't have Ubuntu Software Center, run the following command to install the app -
