We performed a comparison between Huawei 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."It is a stable product. I rate it a nine out of ten...It is a scalable solution."
"The tool's valuable features are easy to deploy and troubleshoot with available documentation. They are cost-effective and can reduce operational expenses. Huawei Ethernet Switches have built-in AI features for monitoring and analytics. These are the tool's solutions, not third-party integrations."
"When you buy a switch from Huawei, the switches come along with a lot of features that you do not need to pay extra money for."
"The HTTP features for security are very good. We use all of the regular features."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its very simple configuration."
"Huawei Ethernet Switches are very stable."
"The technical documentation available is very good. The technical support for the customer is also good - I would give it 8 out of 10."
"The required functionalities align with telecom requirements and have improved from a capacity perspective."
"Managing the switches, such as the main server router, is straightforward. If you use UniFi, it’s easy because everything is integrated into the product. You can discover and manage any connected device with just one piece of equipment, like the UniFi controller. This applies to both the wireless LAN and the wired LAN. UniFi products are simple to manage and help maintain a good network profile."
"The central management is provided by the UniFi management system. You can manage everything from a single interface. The SDN mode that the entire unified system uses is a software-defined network format."
"It is very easy to deploy. The deployment time for a single device is a near instant."
"The user interface makes it simple to configure and manage."
"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."
"UniFi Switches' best feature is the ability to switch voltage from 24 to 48, and it's almost the only device on the market with this feature."
"For the world where you have to balance traffic and traffic loads and bandwidth, their GUI makes it really easy because the switches, though they are enterprise grade level two or level three switches, the GUI is designed so that it's easy to set up VLANs where you need to control your traffic so that your phones don't break up and get choppy because of other people loading the network down too heavily."
"The ability to deploy quickly and then having one central location for all the settings are its most valuable aspects."
"The only thing that could be better is the security module."
"The technical support is technically savvy, but the communication via English is not so easy."
"Huawei Switch can make further advancements, as the current CLI lacks functionality. The majority of tasks are performed through the CLI, making it difficult for those without technical expertise to work with. They should enhance the CLI of the access switches to make them more user-friendly. The GUI of the Ethernet Switches should also be improved to allow non-technical users to perform technical tasks with ease. Additionally, the documentation of the solution could improve."
"I had issues with patching the IOS. But right now I think Huawei has improved very much in the advanced technology and is more stable now. I think patch and bug fixes should be announced on a scheduled basis."
"The solution needs to provide GUI commands."
"The durability of the device can be improved."
"I have issues with the support's communication language. The tool's UI can be better."
"I would like to see more training opportunities available."
"The technical support for this solution could be improved."
"The stability and installation could be improved."
"Ubiquiti UniFi Switches need to add DNS lookup features."
"The VPN technology in Ubiquiti products is really difficult for beginners who do not have the right skills."
"Ubiquiti UniFi Switches’s pricing could be less expensive."
"The documentation for command lines needs to be improved."
"Functionalities can change quite quickly without notice."
"In the next release, it would be beneficial to include a face recognition feature for door access control to enhance security and user convenience."
