Secure, easy to use, and dashboard works well
I use this solution with VxRail I have found some of the key features of the solution are it can be configured similar to Cisco, it is secure, easy to use, and the dashboard works well. In some configurations, I am unable to use two switches as one and it causes some problems. In the future, I…

Has delivered reliable performance over the years but still needs improvements in advanced networking features
I generally recommend Ubiquiti UniFi Switches for medium-sized corporate clients, as most of them don't mind the brand as long as the system works. With major corporate clients, they still have the mentality that Cisco is superior in the market, but medium-sized clients are easier to deploy at that level. Ubiquiti UniFi Switches are improving technically since my last implementation. Our field engineers report significant improvements, and I was involved in Kenya's last general elections where we used Ubiquiti equipment, both wireless and switching, which performed excellently. My assessment of Ubiquiti UniFi Switches' centralized management is that, while I haven't interacted with it extensively, it works similarly to Cisco and Meraki platforms. Field engineers should be able to provide better answers regarding this feature. The port isolation feature on Ubiquiti UniFi Switches is standard, which I believe is appropriate considering they provide standard security features on the port.

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

Pros

"I have found some of the key features of the solution are it can be configured similar to Cisco, it is secure, easy to use, and the dashboard works well."
"Overall the solution functions very well."
"The switches' PoE capabilities have made device deployment very easy."
"The most valuable feature of UniFi Switches is the simple management via the UniFi console."
"The product's easy integration with other Ubiquiti devices is a huge advantage."
"It is a very scalable solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Ubiquiti's network management and the way you can manage many different devices on a network are really nice."
"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."
"It is very easy to deploy. The deployment time for a single device is a near instant."
 

Cons

"In some configurations, I am unable to use two switches as one and it causes some problems."
"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."
"I would like to see the pricing improved."
"Functionalities can change quite quickly without notice."
"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."
"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."
"There is a need for more documentation on DNS Masq configurations with on-prem DNS servers and how firewall policies work."
"We have been having issues with non-homogeneity."
"I face issues sometimes when two switches or APs are installed next to each other, leading to speed problems."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution is fair."
"Everything was bought in a one-time buy as a capital investment, so there isn't any licensing."
"The price of the solution is fair compared to others. However, it is expensive."
"I feel that the price of this solution is definitely reasonable compared to all of the others."
"It is expensive."
"Ubiquiti is much more affordable than enterprise brands."
"UniFi Switches are cost-effective compared to Cisco."
"It's around $179 a device."
"Ubiquiti is one of the cheapest WiFi network providers that provide a very good WiFi network, which is monitored and deployable. The price is very fair for the technology they're offering."
