Greatly simplifies troubleshooting; remote access to the router is a huge time saver
Our primary use case is for internal network distribution and for supplying voiceover IP. It depends on customer requirements but usually it's easier to set up voiceover IP, ePoE from the switch. The routers, such as XWR-3150, can support two different location access points, which is very…

Provides fixed wireless and Wi-Fi access points but has complex pricing
We sell most of the switches for projects that require PoE switches. 95% of the switches we sell are PoE The customers who buy the access points use the standard Ubiquiti management systems because they're freeware tools. We usually get all the requests and materials from the customer, who knows…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution is less expensive than other options."
"Remote access to the router is a huge time saver."
"The ePoE+ is great."
"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 a high-quality product, and it won't let you down."
"Because it's a managed switch, I have the ability to set controls and configure traffic priorities, VLAN ports, etc."
"The most valuable feature for us is the VPN."
"Good price point and very simple to use."
"It is very easy to deploy. The deployment time for a single device is a near instant."
"Ubiquiti's network management and the way you can manage many different devices on a network are really nice."
"The most valuable feature of Ubiquiti UniFi Switches is the graphic user interface for monitoring, where you can see the status of the device in real-time. I use those features across the campus. I use the APs as my beacons to tell me whether the area of the school of the network is down or not. Those will be the first to alert me that there is a problem with the network or a device. They provide me with more than only monitoring themselves, I use them in order to monitor all the devices."
 

Cons

"The documentation could be improved; it's quite basic."
"Documentation and access to it could be greatly improved."
"You do need to be an IT person in order to handle the initial setup. An AV person would struggle a bit."
"This brand is not very popular in China."
"Ubiquiti UniFi Switches need to add DNS lookup features."
"I think they need to provide a better firewall solution."
"They could integrate artificial intelligence for more advanced network traffic analysis and optimization features into the product."
"It would be helpful to have better visibility into exactly what is going on in the network."
"Ubiquiti UniFi Switches can improve by putting more effort into security. There are not many options in security. Other solutions, you can filter, do access control, and functionality. Ubiquiti UniFi Switches provides all the basic network security where it's all about the password for someone to access the SSID on the network, but it doesn't go beyond advanced network features of packet filtering, monitoring, and managing users."
"I would like to see the pricing improved."
"The solution needs to improve its documentation because it is quite poor."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price completely depends on the environment. There are no additional fees."
"The price is very low and a good approach for a smaller company, with 10 to 15 people."
"The price of this product is cheap."
"I rate the pricing an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"I feel that the price of this solution is definitely reasonable compared to all of the others."
"The setup costs are reasonable, and there are no additional licensing fees beyond the initial purchase."
"Everything was bought in a one-time buy as a capital investment, so there isn't any licensing."
"Apart from the basic licensing costs, there are no additional charges attached to the product."
"Ubiquiti switches are quite affordable and you don't have to pay extra for support."
