Provides faster output with manageability and reliability
Other switches often lack sufficient ports, particularly for fiber connections like SFP modules. For instance, a 24-port LAN switch might only include a limited number of SFP ports, typically just four. More switches with a higher number of SFP ports are needed to better accommodate various networking requirements. Having more SFP ports would benefit us, clients, and system integrators. Additionally, as technology evolves, devices with advanced features, like those offered by DeepLink, will become increasingly valuable. DeepLink regularly updates and improves its range of network switches and access points, offering enhanced capabilities each year. They need to streamline the device reset process. For instance, resetting an Omada access point currently involves about seven steps. Improving this process to make it faster and simpler would be beneficial, as the current method takes too long.
Donald Ochanda - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
