Ubiquiti Wireless Reviews

It's useful for me because I can extend more devices to my clients so that they can connect in the summertime. In the summertime, you have high traffic because everyone is on vacation, and they can connect to a wireless solution.

I like that it's very easy and very stable. It's easy to install as well.

We need an official distributor in Egypt as we don't have one right now. Also, integration with other platforms will be good.

I've been using it for six years.

It's a very stable solution.

Sometimes, I feel it's scalable. We have 500 users of this solution.

It took 10 minutes to install one device. We needed 2 administrators for installation and maintenance.

On a scale from one to ten, I would rate Ubiquiti Wireless at ten. I strongly recommend it to others.

I used it briefly, primarily for a small deployment. That included the controller and a couple of access points. The deployment took place over the course of a few months. It was just for wireless connectivity in an office setup.

The ease of the setup is one of its most valuable aspects.

The pricing is excellent. The controller is actually free and we pay for the access points only.

The solution needs to improve its features and offer more to the customer.

The integration capability needs to be a bit more robust.

The active directory is where they could do some more work.

I've used the solution for a while, here and there.

Where I have used this solution, for the use cases I've dealt with, I've found the solution to be quite stable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. Its performance is reliable.

For a small deployment, they are very good. I haven't used them in a very large deployment, and therefore can't speak to its scalability.

That said, it's my understanding that you can definitely add more access points if you need to.

The latest deployment was for an office of about 20 people. It's not a big job by any means.

I haven't had any reason to connect with technical support and therefore cannot speak to how helpful or responsive they are. 

The initial setup is not overly complex or difficult. It's very easy to set up. That's a great selling point, actually. The implementation rolls out very simply and it's quite straightforward.

The entire installation is very quick and takes less than an hour to execute.

We have two admins and four engineers that can handle deployment and maintenance responsibilities.

I can handle implementations on my own. I do not need the assistance of a consultant or integrator. It's pretty simple to do.

The pricing is very reasonable. It's not overly expensive. The way you are charged is as follows: the controller is free; we simply pay for the access points only. It's very affordable.

You just have the one-off initial cost. You don't have to pay a monthly fee or anything like that.

We're using the latest version of the solution. I can't speak to the exact version number, however. 

In general, I would rate the solution at a six out of ten. It's a decent solution.

I'd recommend the solution to other users or companies that need a smaller-sized deployment. It's a cheaper option and would work well for them.

This solution is used for networking WiFi access.

The solution is easy to use and flexible.

I have been using this solution for approximately five years.

The solution is stable.

The support they provide for the solution is great.

The installation is very easy and took approximately one.

We did the implementation ourselves.

The price of the solution is high and could be cheaper.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Ubiquiti Wireless an eight out of ten.

Our primary use case is for office networking. We are customers of Ubiquiti and I'm the IT and software manager. 

This product is easy to use and it's very flexible. 

It would help if the product were more secure and the controller was more user-friendly.

I've been using this solution for a couple of years. 

This is a very stable solution. 

This is a scalable product. 

The initial setup is straightforward, I did it myself. We have around 40 users in the company. We have three or four developers who were involved in deployment and still now in the maintenance of the solution. 

I'm going to continue using this solution and I recommend it.

I rate this product an eight out of 10. 

We use the solution to connect our buildings and stations together.

I have found the most valuable features to be the ability to use the main centralized administration process and the internet.

We use different models of the solution but in some cases, the security could improve in the adaptive portal, be a little more robust, and easier to use.

I have been using the solution for approximately 10 years.

One of the best features is that the solution sends you constant alarms when you have problems with the service organization. It is stable but could improve.

The scalability of the solution is good. Our clients are typically medium-size businesses. Our clients frequently tell us to install Aruba from HP, Cisco, or Juniper. They see this solution as best suited for small enterprises. We have to explain to them Ubiquiti is working on the security and stability of their wireless network.

Technical support is very poor, this is an area needing improvement. It is difficult to find someone qualified here in Latin America to have an answer to our problems. It can take up to three days for someone to come with a possible solution. We end up browsing the internet for solutions to our problems rather than waiting for support. 

The installation was not easy. The documentation was not straightforward and they were not complete. They need to improve on this. We had to navigate the internet to find solutions to many of our issues. There was not one place we could have all the information needed for the installation to go smoothly. The deployment took approximately three days.

We do the implementation of the solution. We use one technician and an engineer to do the maintenance and deployment of the solution. The typical time it takes is approximately one day to make an analysis of the information, find security risks, and make a solution.

This solution is cheaper compared to others.

Our clients have evaluated HP and Cisco solutions. They are really expensive. We have to find a solution that has a certain level of quality, that can monitor well, and has good security, this solution matches those needs.

I would recommend this solution. However, they need to work on support services.

I rate Ubiquiti Wireless an eight out of ten.

The primary use case is to provide wireless access.

Ubiquiti Wireless is easy to use, it's stable and flexible, and the performance is great. It is scalable as well.

The cost could be lower.

I've been using this solution for, maybe, two or three years.

Ubiquiti Wireless is stable, and I'm quite happy with it.

It is scalable. We currently have 20 customers using this solution.

Installation is quite straightforward and quick.

I'm a managed service provider, and we deploy networks as well. I handle the network side, and the technician handles the onsite work.

There are no licensing fees for this solution, but the cost is on the higher side.

It's not a one file device. It's a whole network. It's Wi-Fi, wired, a security gateway, etc. It has all of these different components to it and is not just Wi-Fi. However, the price is on the higher side, but you're getting better equipment for it. So, I would rate Ubiquiti Wireless at nine on a scale from one to ten.

We use the solution for individuals that need access to the office network. This solution allows them to be connected to their mobile, desktop, laptops, and tablets, or any other kind of internal information which is being sent to the cloud. 

I have found the most valuable features to be how user-friendly it is and how simple it is to do the configurations.

This solution should be more robust when it comes to connectivity and improve wireless technology.

I have been using the solution for one year.

I have found the solution to be stable.

The solution is scalable. We have 100 people using the solution in my organization.

The technical support is good.

I have been using Aruba solutions in the past and they have some advantages to this one. Aruba is more prudent and robust overall. However, in Aruba, you have to configure it a lot with many details.

I did the deployment myself.

The price has been fair for what I have been using it for. There is no license for this solution.

I would recommend this solution to others. However, if you have the extra budget I would select Aruba instead.

I rate Ubiquiti Wireless an eight out of ten.

We use Ubiquiti for point-to-point linking. We don't use it for Wi-Fi, we use it for point links and backward links.

We are resellers of Ubiquiti and we install it for our clients.

When you compare with Mikrotik, Mikrotik is more stable than Ubiquiti because they have their own protocols. They have two protocols, proprietary protocols, and CDMA protocols. Mikrotik only uses CDMA protocols.

I would like local support from the parent company.

I have been using Ubiquiti Wireless for years and we are using the latest version.

It's a stable solution but Mikrotik offers more stability.

It's a scalable product. The scalable range is from five kilometers to forty kilometers.

Depending on the model, if we are providing Mbps, we are using a higher-end model of Ubiquiti and Mikrotik for users.

There is no technical support by parent companies. In India, there is only the import product. There is no channel or distributor of Ubiquiti or Mikrotik.

They should have local support available.

We use wireless products such as Cambium and Mikrotik.

Ubiquiti is easier to install than Mikrotik.

You can install Ubiquiti in 30 minutes, and Mikrotik will take two hours.

Ubiquiti doesn't present any issues for our engineers to maintain but Mikrotik is a bit more complicated.

We have plans to continue selling this solution.

I would recommend Ubiquiti, but my preference would be Mikrotik and that is the one that I recommend.

I would rate Ubiquiti an eight out of ten.

We use the solution for big houses and sometimes in hotels.

This solution has helped my organization a little bit.

Having dual-band is important. Having compatibility with very old equipment on certain frequencies, for example on 2.4 and 5.8. On the 2.4 frequency, there are a lot of things in the house that uses it, sometimes old TVs cannot connect to the new technologies but they work fine with this solution.

I would like to see more cloud features that some of the other competitors such as Cisco Meraki have that are very useful.

In an upcoming release, I would like to see faster updates and advancements. 

Cisco product can show you all the traffic on the cloud, what kind of traffic, who is connected, and who disconnected. They have a lot of statistics, all the Mac addresses and IPs. You can see a lot of information. Additionally, It is very easy to find some specific equipment. For example, what port is connected and what others do not. If you also put some switches from Meraki, you also will have a lot more features, plenty of more. That is why it is expensive but it's the best definitely. This solution should take some of the beneficial features from those two solutions I mentioned and upgrade.

I have used the solution in the past 12 months.

When we upgrade the access points to the newest version, it does not work all the time, when this occurs we need to roll back the firmware.

The solution is scalable. The eight-person IT department is using the solution as well as everybody else because they use wifi, approximately 32 employees.

The customer support is satisfactory. Sometimes the support would rather the customer use the technical chats or forums that they have. They do not always take the call.

I rate Ubiquiti Wireless customers support an eight out of ten.

We have used previously Cisco, IronNet, and Ruckus. I have found Ruckus to be the best.

Sometimes when you are trying to set up the access points it comes with old firmware which makes it have problems when setting it up on the controller. It can be very difficult. However, if the firmware is not too old it will work fine. 

If you do not have a big budget, you can use Ubiquiti, it is cost-effective.

Those wanting to purchase solutions try and balance between the price and features, with this solution it is very cheap in comparison with Cisco and Ruckus. For example, if you are looking for houses best suited, the high-end houses are a good fit. For companies, they might have a larger budget to invest in more expensive equipment. Ubiquiti for houses is more than enough.

I rate Ubiquiti Wireless a seven out of ten.

We have offices scattered around the building and some of them may be used for phoning in to access conference calls. Also, when someone comes in with a laptop, they can be wirelessly connected to our network. This is easier than using a wired connection.

The range is usually pretty good, which is the most important thing to use because more or less, all wireless access points are the same.

The stability can be problematic but in general, it is okay.

Better security is important because we need to have some degree of control over who is connected and how we can restrict the level of connectivity. We have been catching people who are abusing their access.

Extending the ranger further would be even better for us.

We have been using Ubiquiti Wireless for between five and ten years.

It is not always stable, unfortunately.

In my office, we have approximately 100 people using wireless. Not all of them are using the service at the same time.

We have not been in contact with technical support. Rather, we rely on ourselves.

It takes between a few minutes and an hour to install an access point.

We have a technical team of trained people, in-house, for deployment and maintenance. We are a public institution, so we don't always have the best technicians due to salary issues. But, if we were to consider the technical aspect then I'd say that we need to strengthen our skills.

I would rate this solution a seven out of ten.
