We performed a comparison between D-Link Ethernet Switches and Ubiquiti UniFi Switches based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Ethernet Switches solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The initial setup was very easy and user-friendly."
"These switches are very easy to install because there is no configuration."
"It's plug-and-play. There is no configuration necessary."
"The product is simple to manage."
"The solution is scalable."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The main selling point for me was the pricing. Moreover, the performance is good. I haven't had any issues so far."
"It is a stable solution."
"The value here with using the Ubiquiti products across the board is that they're almost all single-pane management and the single-pane management is included. It's a huge benefit."
"Because it's a managed switch, I have the ability to set controls and configure traffic priorities, VLAN ports, etc."
"The switches' PoE capabilities have made device deployment very easy."
"It is great size-wise and the user interface is easy to use. You don't need to be a pro to use this solution."
"The ability to manage firmware revisions."
"Ubiquiti UniFi Switches are stable and support Layer 3. They come with a user-friendly interface. If you're not familiar with the command-line interface or you wouldn't like to configure it by using the command line, they have a user-friendly interface that you can use. They also have good documentation about how to use these switches."
"Great information on the graphical interface."
"Good price point and very simple to use."
"The solution's web filtering feature could be improved."
"I'd like to see a central management system included as part of their license, not as a separate purchase. Currently, we have to manage switches independently. A central portal for managing all switches and providing visibility would be great."
"They could be more stable. They were not as resistant as Cisco. After some time, some of them failed. This could be because we import quite a lot of products from different horizons, so there is no guarantee of quality. In Africa, these products don't always directly come from the manufacturer. We get these products from the Middle East or Asia. Therefore, you cannot be sure that the quality is exactly similar to what you have in Europe or America."
"The solution needs to improve layer 2 switches."
"This solution is not good for distribution at the core."
"The solution could be cheaper."
"It should be more stable, and it should have good integration with the cloud. It should support configuration, supervision, and control through the cloud."
"There is room for improvement in terms of stability."
"The documentation for command lines needs to be improved."
"New products don't integrate well with their management platform. Sometimes you have to go directly to the box or the switch to do the management."
"The support is pretty much email-based and that's horrible for an enterprise product. I can't call anybody right away."
"We need to upgrade everything too often."
"The VPN technology in Ubiquiti products is really difficult for beginners who do not have the right skills."
"It would be beneficial for us if Ubiquiti had a team of advanced data transportation specialists that we could get feedback from. We are not experts in data transportation, so having this sort of resource would be helpful for us."
"One area for improvement would be having a web interface directly on the device itself. That's the one thing that makes them more difficult for less experienced technicians to configure."
"I would like to see the pricing improved."
