Ubiquiti UniFi Switches Reviews

We are a tech services company and this is one of the solutions that we provide to our customers. I have worked a great deal with Ubiquiti switches and other products.

The primary use case for this solution is to supply power to access points and Voice over IP devices. For example, we install one 24-port switch so that we can connect multiple devices into it, and then create different VLANs.

The most valuable feature is that you can manage everything through the Cloud Key UniFi controller.

The fact that you can manage everything including the switch-level configuration, and access point configuration of both the wireless networks and the LAN, is very useful.

The GUI interface is very easy to use and the Linux-based command-line interface is also good. I am happy with the interface.

The price of this solution should be more competitive.

The technical support for this solution could be improved.

There was a point where I had to create cases with technical support because I couldn't access the Cloud Key. However, those issues seem to have been resolved with updates that have been done. At this point, it is running well.

I have not tried stacking these switches, so I cannot say. It seems to me that it should be fine if you are going to make trunks between the switches, but I haven't done this yet.

I have performed fourteen installations, and some of our customers have approximately one hundred and fifty users.

I was in contact with technical support for issues with the Cloud Key. I would rate them three out of five. The technical support for this solution could be better.

The initial setup of this solution is quite straightforward. You just add the SSH key onto a Cloud controller, and from there you can do everything. Right from the first installation, I didn't need to check the manual.

I have been installing the Ubiquiti 8-port and 24-port, 500 Watt PoE switches, together with the access point. Most of the time, we don't just install the switch, but in combination with the access points.

The time for deployment depends on the configuration. If you are only setting up an access point then it is quite straightforward because it doesn't need to worry about VLAN. But, if you need multiple VLANs then it's going to take longer to configure. For example, if you're going to make one VLAN for somebody at home then it's no time at all. However, if you need to make ten or twenty VLANs then it's going to take you some time. I can't say how long, because again, it depends on the installation.

This solution does not charge for technical support. Unlike vendors such as Cisco Meraki, there is no cost for licensing.

This is a solution that I recommend. It's simple to use, and the installation and configuration are pretty straightforward. Anyone who has a little bit of experience with switches and firewalls could use it.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

I have yet to explore the use cases. Of the eight or ten users with whom we set it up, I have not yet received feedback about the solution or whether it engenders problems. Perhaps this is something I should pursue, to satisfy myself that the solution is being utilized and to apprise myself of any issues.

The two most valuable features are the remote access user and the side-to-side connection.

I would recommend changing the solution to a recognized one, such as Check Point or Fortinet.

The problem on our end is that we did not have the contingency in our budget to accommodate the purchase of the solution.

Six months ago I explored the solution, at which point the decision was made to go with it.

As I said, I have yet to receive any feedback on the use of or potential problems with the solution. I still have people working from home, so the solution provides the sole means of access.

As such, I would rate Ubiquiti UniFi Switches as a five out of ten.

We use this solution as a switch for networks.

Overall the solution functions very well.

I have been using this solution for two years.

The have found from my experience the solution is stable.

The initial installation is very quick.

We implement the solution for our customers.

The price of the solution is fair compared to others. However, it is expensive.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Ubiquiti UniFi Switches a nine out of ten.

Our primary use case is an access switch.

The user interface makes it simple to configure and manage.

The access speeds are high.

This brand is not very popular in China.

We have been dealing with Ubiquiti UniFi Switches for two years.

This is a stable product and we plan to continue using it in the future.

Scalability is good. We have approximately 40 users.

Technical support is available but it is not provided by the manufacturer. It is provided by a third party.

We have used different products in the past, and the suitability of this one depends on the requirements.

The installation is very easy. It took approximately half an hour to deploy.

The time required for deployment will be based on the requirements and complexity of the environment, but our requirements are very simple.

The price of this product is cheap.

This is a product that I would recommend for small companies.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

The performance is good. They also have good prices and have a lot of functions in their software.

The idea used in Ubiquiti UniFi Switches is very powerful and interesting. It's also new in this market.

They improved the stability a little bit, but it still requires more stability.

Installation could be easier as well.

I've been using it for a few years.

It is not as stable as required. They improved the stability a little bit, but it still requires more stability.

We have about 100 users, but we have approximately 10 switches. They are connected to a video recorder and a lot of video cameras.

We used Juniper before.

We had a problem with the initial setup because first we needed to upgrade the firmware. I think they have solved this in the latest switches.

It took about a day to solve the problem during the initial deployment.

I deployed it myself. You would need one person for deployment and maintenance.

The price is good, and it doesn't require additional licenses.

I would recommend it for offices, but I wouldn't recommend it for data centers.

On a scale from one to ten, I would rate Ubiquiti UniFi Switches at nine.

Our primary use case is to have for security. 

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. 

In terms of improvement, sometimes we have bugs. 

We have been using UniFi Switches for five years. 

We have had issues with stability.

We haven't had any problems with scalability. There are more or less eight people using this solution. 

Customer support will depend on the integrator. 

The initial setup was very straightforward. The deployment took around fifteen minutes. We were able to do it ourselves. An integrator is not needed. 

I would recommend it. It's a good solution. You might need something more reliable. For a small company, it is great. 

I would rate it a seven out of ten. Stability needs improvement.
