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.

Quotes from Members

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."
"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."
"Overall the solution functions very well."
"Good price point and very simple to use."
"They're a great product and they work well, it's just difficult to get hold of switches now with the chip shortage, but if you're going to be doing projects with a lot of clients who will use Ubiquiti switches, my recommendation is to buy a couple of extra switches and have them in stock."
"The interface and the duality are the solution's most valuable features."
"The central management is provided by the UniFi management system. You can manage everything from a single interface. The SDN mode that the entire unified system uses is a software-defined network format."
"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. It's a huge benefit."
"I would recommend implementing this solution because it's quite easy."
 

Cons

"In some configurations, I am unable to use two switches as one and it causes some problems."
"I encountered a problem with Ubiquiti’s wireless solution. Local user authentication isn’t supported, and we’re limited to using vouchers."
"It would be nice if there was a way to label all of the ports on it so that I could include information about where the various connections go."
"The price could be lower."
"I do not have any notes for improvements."
"The routing capabilities of Layer 3 should be made easier to implement."
"It would be helpful to have better visibility into exactly what is going on in the network."
"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."
"They can improve the visibility of networks to match Meraki switches, which have good visibility tools to go through the network. In a Meraki device, you get a clear picture when using the bug interface. You can also see its neighbors and have a clear picture of all connected devices. Ubiquiti UniFi Switches do not have such features that Meraki switches provide."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution is fair."
"The price of the solution is fair compared to others. However, it is expensive."
"The price of this product is cheap."
"Ubiquiti is much more affordable than enterprise brands."
"Ubiquiti switches are quite affordable and you don't have to pay extra for support."
"There are no licensing fees; you just purchase it and run it."
"The solution's pricing in the marketplace would probably be about three out of ten."
"I rate the pricing an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"I rate the tool's pricing a five out of ten."
