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.

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."
"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."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of Ubiquiti UniFi Switches is that once you buy them, you own them."
"The integration with the controller is one of the most valuable features of these switches, and they are also very stable, as we have some equipment that we haven't touched for four years that is still reliable."
"The price of Ubiquiti is worth it because the integration of the switches is seamless. It's like they just talk to each other."
"Ubiquiti UniFi Switches is a stable solution."
"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."
"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."
"It's been working fine, it's been stable, and there are no interruptions."
 

Cons

"In some configurations, I am unable to use two switches as one and it causes some problems."
"In some configurations, I am unable to use two switches as one and it causes some problems."
"Ubiquiti tends to end-of-life things faster than other companies do. Cisco tends to be in the 8-, 10-, 12-year time frame, and Ubiquiti tends to be in the 4- or 5-year time frame."
"I had some initial problems with the configuration that necessitated contacting technical support."
"If Ubiquiti UniFi Switches had some live support instead of community support, that would go a long way."
"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 price could be lower."
"The product needs to improve its pricing."
"We need to upgrade everything too often."
"I'd like there to be better reporting for the solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution is fair."
"The price of this product is cheap."
"The price is reasonable."
"It's around $179 a device."
"I feel that the price of this solution is definitely reasonable compared to all of the others."
"It's challenging to compare Ubiquiti UniFi Switches and other brands directly due to the significant price difference, especially between US brands like Cisco and Aruba versus others. However, compared to US brands, Ubiquiti UniFi Switches are more cost-effective. On the other hand, if compared with brands from China, it might seem expensive."
"Ubiquiti UniFi Switches is one of the most cost-effective solutions in the market"
"The price of the solution is fair compared to others. However, it is expensive."
"It is expensive."
