Ubiquiti UniFi Switches Reviews

It's been working fine, it's been stable, and there are no interruptions. It's been there doing its job and has not required any work to keep alive, so that's been positive.

I had some initial problems with the configuration that necessitated contacting technical support.

I have been working with Ubiquiti UniFi Switches for five years.

I have not scaled since the initial setup but it seems to be fine. I think that includes what you need to scale it.

I don't fully remember my experience with them, but I think that it was relatively good.

My initial setup needed some kind of reconfiguration to work, which is why it took some time to get it set up and running. The support was deferred, and I'm not sure if it was related to the skills of the technical support people. Overall, I would say that it's fair.

I have experience with NETGEAR products as well.

The initial setup is a little complex. I can't recall exactly how it was or what happened, but I contacted technical support and we tried some different configurations. On that level, it was not very easy.

The price is reasonable.

I am currently looking for a new solution and am looking at NETGEAR as well as Ubiquiti, but there is nothing that has been decided yet. One of the things that I've been looking at is the combined switch and firewall in one. From the reviews I have read, it seems like people have had initial issues with it that dwell on the configuration.

My advice for anybody who is looking into implementing this product is to go ahead and buy it. This is a good switch; the functionality is there and the design is nice too. I think that it's a good buy.

So far, this product has had what we've needed. Even though I'm an engineer, I have not done a deep dive into this switch. As such, I haven't paid so much attention to it or the initial setup, so I'm not sure that if I am missing anything or not.

Other than the configuration problems, I haven't had any issues.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

I am in the audio-visual industry. All the TVs, PCs, mobile phones, iPads, and tablets connect to the solution.

Ubiquiti UniFi Switches is a stable solution.

Ubiquiti UniFi Switches is not a cheap solution.

I have been using Ubiquiti UniFi Switches for over six years.

The solution's stability is very good.

I rate Ubiquiti UniFi Switches ten out of ten for stability.

Around 50 customers are using Ubiquiti UniFi Switches.

I rate Ubiquiti UniFi Switches ten out of ten for scalability.

The solution's initial setup is straightforward.

The solution's deployment doesn't take too long and can be done within 10 to 15 minutes. To deploy the solution, you must have the controller, connect everything up, adopt it, and then go into your settings. It doesn't take long.

We are a small company, and I do all the deployment myself.

With Ubiquiti UniFi Switches, you get what you pay for.

I would recommend Ubiquiti UniFi Switches to other users because it is stable, reliable, and easy to deploy.

Overall, I rate Ubiquiti UniFi Switches ten out of ten.

The solution helps me manage the network far better than before. I can also manage VLANs and decide how much bandwidth the users should get.

The product is seamless and robust. We only had issues when there were power outages. The user interface is the most valuable feature. The tool is easy to use. I rate the ease of use an eight out of ten.

The initial deployment was a bit complex.

I have been using the solution for a year and three months.

The tool has been rock solid. I rate the stability a ten out of ten.

I have used Cisco’s switches and routers. We switched to Ubiquiti because it enabled us to manage the network.

The initial deployment was a bit complex, but we figured it out.

I have seen an ROI on the product. We can manage our users far better now.

The price should be improved.

We have consultants. We did not need to call the support team. With Ubiquiti, we get what we pay for. Overall, I rate the product an eight out of ten.

I mainly use UniFi Switches to power access points and P2P devices. If I have a backhaul point-to-point wireless link, I forward them by using these switches because they have two voltages (24 and 48) that I can switch between according to my needs.

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.

I've been using UniFi Switches for about six or seven years.

UniFi Switches are very stable.

UniFi Switches are scalable - you can extend your network easily since some switches have the fiber optic option, and you can extend your number of ports, making connections between fiber ports.

The initial setup is very easy and takes only a few minutes.

I installed UniFi Switches myself.

UniFi Switches are cost-effective compared to Cisco, but the price could be lower.

I would recommend UniFi Switches to other users and rate it nine out of ten.

We primarily use the solution as a bridge to extend our LAN.

The solution is very good for expanding our LAN.

The product has proven itself to be stable.

The scalability is very good.

The installation itself is very easy.

I haven't found the cost of the solution to be too high.

Given that it has a portal, which is online, if it can be accessed remotely that would be ideal. If they can add that feature or if there is that feature, they need to make it public.

I'd like there to be better reporting for the solution.

I've used the solution for a couple of years at this point.

The stability is very good. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable in terms of the performance on offer.

The product is scalable. There are no issues if a company needs to expand it.

We have 30 people using Ubiquiti Switches in our organization.

We do plan to continue to use them.

I've never directly dealt with technical support. There hasn't been an issue that has required us to reach out. Therefore, I can't speak to how helpful or responsive they are in general.

The installation process is pretty straightforward. it's not overly complex or difficult.

Our local supplier in Zimbabwe is the one who has been doing all these configurations for me, however, the implementation is not that difficult. You can just use a manual to configure it. It's not much of a hassle. It's more like a plug-and-play solution. I am also using the wifi distribution access point. They are not a challenge at all. It took me less than five minutes.

We have a local supplier that has done our configurations. However, at this point, I have acquired enough knowledge to be able to do it by myself.

For what I'm using Ubiquiti for, there hasn't been any need for licenses as it's more like a plug-and-play setup. I'm just using a portal, which is free as well. There hasn't been much cost involved in using the solution.

We are a customer and end-user. We don't have a business relationship with Ubiquiti.

I'm using the latest version of the solution at this time. I cannot speak to the exact version number.

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten overall.

I would definitely recommend the product to other users and companies.

We primarily use this solution for the VPN and it has been successful for us.

Ubiquity UniFi is adequately doing what we need to do.

The most valuable feature for us is the VPN.

This solution is easy to use. 

I would like to see the security features improved.

It would be helpful to have better visibility into exactly what is going on in the network. In particular, I would like to have more control over the internal MAC addresses because I have none at the moment. Specifically - I see payloads with virtual MAC addresses - but the management software does not show these addresses in the statistics.

I have been working with Ubiquiti UniFi Switches for two years.

In terms of resilience, this solution seems to be okay. I just upgraded and it has been stable. We haven't had a failure in the 120 days that have passed since the previous upgrade.

It seems to me that there are problems with the performance of my current gateway. I currently have a 500-megabit symmetrical link and I think that I'm at the limit of what it can handle.

We have fifteen users and we don't plan on increasing usage at the moment.

I have only used technical support on one occasion and it seemed to be okay.

Prior to UniFi, we used a homegrown Unix environment. I upgraded it to use the UniFy because it seemed to be straightforward. I put in a 48-port power-over-ethernet switch that has the flexibility to handle VOIP and the other services that we need.

The initial setup was reasonably straightforward. I currently use the management console bound to a server, rather than use the cloud key. I did purchase one but it's now obsolete because I use services that it doesn't support.

I feel that the price of this solution is definitely reasonable compared to all of the others. Once you buy the equipment, there are no additional fees.

I am exploring the possibility of using our Ubiquiti switch as an external gateway but I'm not sure whether I want a gateway in the cloud, or what kind of gateway exactly, so this is something to be decided later.

My advice to anybody who is considering this solution is that you really need to look at the risk profile. Also, I don't think that it is necessarily scalable because I think that I'm on the edge of the limit of what we can use it for. However, there may be something else coming that will assist with this.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

We primarily use the solution for our local network.

The solution's most valuable feature is its reliability.

We've had issues with the power supply. I've had to change the power supply twice. I'm not sure what the issue is. We're still trying to work out why we're having problems with the switches and the cutting of the power supply. The solution should look into this to see if there is something wrong with the product.

The solution is stable.

The solution is scalable.

We've never had to reach out to technical support.

I've previously used other solutions, including Cisco, Brocade, and HP. We use all of these. It depends on what the client prefers or the budget of the project. There aren't big technical differences between any of these.

The initial setup was straightforward. Deployment took two to three days.

I handled the implementation myself.

You only have a one-time payment when you purchase the solution. The pricing isn't subscription-based. This particular solution is very cost-effective.

We use the on-premises deployment model. We're system integrators.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

Our primary use case of this solution is to support our users by providing internet services and university academic system software resources.

I like the control one has with this solution; you manage everything from one central point. Everything including the devices and the switches. So the centralized management is one thing that I really like about Ubiquiti.

I've been using the solution for three months only, so I can't say if it is stable or not. But I've had no glitches or bugs so far. 

The Ubiquiti switches are my access switches. I use Cisco for my edge and I wanted to see if I can have some copying prototypes to so that I wouldn't have problems in the design. I'm yet to do that, if I can have a common configuration that's compatible with the Cisco switches for the core and for the distribution and then Ubiquity for the access. But I can't comment much on it yet.

I'm still using Cisco, but I switched to Ubiquity for the access because I want to leverage on the price tag on Ubiquity. 

The setup was straightforward. So far working on the solution has been a learning curve. I'm in Ghana and there's no training center here, so I learn by using the online tutorials. 

A vendor came to deploy the solution for me.

Yes, we have evaluated Tradenet, D-link, Huawei and Cisco too. 

I will rate this solution an eight out of ten.
