DSolve[4*y[x] - 4*y'[x] - 3*y''[x] + 2*y'''[x] + y''''[x] == 0,y[x],x]
Mathematica raw output
{{y[x] -> (C[1] + E^(3*x)*C[3] + x*(C[2] + E^(3*x)*C[4]))/E^(2*x)}}
Maple raw input
dsolve(diff(diff(diff(diff(y(x),x),x),x),x)+2*diff(diff(diff(y(x),x),x),x)-3*diff(diff(y(x),x),x)-4*diff(y(x),x)+4*y(x) = 0, y(x))
Maple raw output
