"They are a pretty expensive option."
"The technical support could be better. They aren't as helpful as they need to be when we run into issues."
"Ubiquiti WLAN only supports 2.4GHz Wi-Fi radio and would be improved by including support for 5GHz."
"During the configuration, we cannot get information on the network level from the regular interface."
"Largely we're happy with the product, however, the firmware deployments could maybe be managed a little bit differently."
"There seems to be a drop in service. It's definitely a reliability or stability issue we face."
"The product must provide better warranties."
"If they can integrate or release a single platform because, currently, there are two different platforms for switches and routers. So, maintaining just one unified platform, like, for example, unifying the models or brands, and avoiding separate platforms for edge switches, edge routers, and other Ubiquiti products, would simplify the integration and implementation process."
"The downside is the interface changes, where they are constantly doing firmware updates."
"When they release new products, you should know if there backward compatibility, or do you have to replace the entire forklift, It is useful to understand their strategy and where they are headed."
