It is used in an office environment. We had an incorrect deployment. Office Ubiquiti access points were deployed in the warehouse, and they start to fail when you reach above 90 degrees. In the warehouse ceiling, it's well over 90 degrees, so four of them failed. Rather than just replace them, I decided to use outdoor access points inside the warehouse. They can survive extreme temperatures.
It's more my preference that I prefer Ruckus. There are only three big top names: Cisco, Aruba, and Ruckus. Cisco is only there because of brand recognition, but I've always appreciated Ruckus for Wi-Fi over any other brand because they truly sell a "set it and forget it" system. If you're the IT guy and you're a one-man operation, you look for things that can heal themselves and provide their own maintenance.
Other systems require a lot of heavy lifting. Ruckus doesn't. It costs more, but you get what you pay for. So, that's one of the reasons I would have replaced it with Ruckus down the road anyway. It was just convenient that these failures are taking place now.

In the school area, we have deployed Ubiquiti Wireless. Each floor has four Ubiquiti Wireless solutions. We have indoor and outdoor solutions and it is used for long-distance communication. Indoors, the students rely on Ubiquiti Wireless for day-to-day academic activities, like classes, attending seminars, everything. We have deployed Ubiquiti Wireless in their applied building, and it has a controller also, a virtual machine controller.

Consultant at Lifeline IT
I use the solution in my company for our different clients who use Ubiquiti Wireless, considering that it is a fairly reliable tool. The tool provides a yearly subscription for a service. The product has a web interface on which you can log in, ensuring that it is always available while allowing you to see what is going on in your environment. You can control the features of the tool. You can use the tool for mapping or building features and to check various access points. With the product in place, you can look at the access points of more than 200 devices, and it can also handle more devices as it allows users to add other access points. With Ubiquiti Wireless, the actual range for the access point is fairly good. The product has features like controller migrations.
Romanas Juska
Product Manager at Baltneta
Ubiquiti wireless is quite good for us, especially in terms of price and functionality. We often provide maintenance services to companies for their internal land areas, and we rent or sell access points to them for Wi-Fi access. Additionally, we provide support for their internal network, which is why we use Ubiquiti access points.

This solution is widely used in Iraq.
We primarily use the solution as an access point for hotels. If you want to install a wireless system, you use the products called Unifi access points, and it has a couple of models, like the UAP-AC-LR and a UAP-AC-Pro. This is for making a system for wireless setups for hotels, hospitals, and universities.

The reason why I ended up using Ubiquiti Wireless is because of having to work from home during the pandemic, and the kids were homeschooling. Those were the biggest reasons why I had to put wireless access points at home.

The primary use cases of this solution include home use and hospitality, for example: small cafes, etc. It's used in most small businesses where they just need a few ITs and they need simple management, which also means that they're not too worried about the security.

We use this solution for point to point. For example, if we have an ISP and you want to feed a company with bandwidth, we use the "add point to point" feature for wifi.
We use it as an access point, but if you are talking about manifestation, this is for a very limited range, evaluated in a limited number of people. If you want to have a real ISP business, you need a different solution. It can be installed inside a system, and then you use that setup to broadcast a signal. It's very stable in most cases if we don't have Microsoft.
We use the on-premises version of the solution.

Alexander Ernst
IT Manager at IMP Bautest AG
I use Ubiquiti Wireless for WiFi deployment in my flat in Switzerland where I have one access point and two switches. The flat is about 80 to 100 square meters, so one access point is enough. I have also installed it in my parents' two-family house where there are four access points. The house has three floors so requires more access points to cover the whole area.
A lot also depends on the thickness of the building's walls. If you want good coverage and you're using the 5Ghz frequency band, I think you need one access point per 60 square meters.

We want to have full control over the product so we use it on-premises. Our main customer base is in the city of Leyden for free outdoor wifi usage. We have about 100 access points around the city. We do interlinks and point links, as well as in harbors, campsites, and anywhere there is demand locally. We do service other cities, but Leyden is the main city. We do testing and development with routing data over wireless networks.
