We performed a comparison between Arista Networks Platform and Ubiquiti UniFi Switches based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Ethernet Switches solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."They support open standard features."
"It's an extremely reliable platform for the network switches we use."
"The solution has good load latency. They're the market leader in this aspect right now."
"The user-friendly policy manager lets us apply different controls for various user groups easily."
"The most valuable aspect of Arista Networks products is their ease of configuration, especially when compared to Cisco products. When we implement advanced features for data centers such as BGP EVPN and VXLAN, Arista's configuration process is similar to that of Cisco's process, but at the same time it is simply much easier, clearer, and more understandable."
"I like the spine as a leaf model and low latency. The hardware is robust and meets expected latency in all environments, mainly if you belong to the media or trading industry. For multicast-based solutions, Arista is number one."
"It provides telemetry and visibility for many metrics that are not supported by most of the other vendors. Out of the box, no third party solutions are needed."
"Arista Networks Platform is comfortable, easy to deploy, and easy to manage, with non-blocking technology. Additionally, it has a useful CloudVision platform and automation capabilities."
"Ubiquiti UniFi Switches are stable and support Layer 3. They come with a user-friendly interface. If you're not familiar with the command-line interface or you wouldn't like to configure it by using the command line, they have a user-friendly interface that you can use. They also have good documentation about how to use these switches."
"The performance is good. They also have good prices."
"It's been working fine, it's been stable, and there are no interruptions."
"This product is very reasonably priced."
"The most valuable feature of Ubiquiti UniFi Switches is that once you buy them, you own them."
"It's very easy to deploy – much easier than MikroTik. It's very seamless and well-designed."
"Overall the solution functions very well."
"The switches' PoE capabilities have made device deployment very easy."
"The solution is a bit pricey."
"The intent-based networking management, together with the provider of these solutions that are already free, would be beneficial."
"My company does face issues in terms of interoperability when it comes to the product, making it an area that needs to be fixed."
"The solution needs to accommodate new features."
"The solution needs to improve their product range."
"The stability of this solution needs to be improved as part of the next upgrade."
"Arista Networks Platform should focus on improving the compatibility or integration with Cisco solutions."
"Something that you will often hear about Arista products is that the price is a bit too high and, like with Cisco, we sometimes have problems with our customers because of its pricing."
"The VPN technology in Ubiquiti products is really difficult for beginners who do not have the right skills."
"I had some initial problems with the configuration that necessitated contacting technical support."
"We've had issues with the power supply. I've had to change the power supply twice. I'm not sure what the issue is. We're still trying to work out why we're having problems with the switches and the cutting of the power supply. The solution should look into this to see if there is something wrong with the product."
"The price could be lower."
"The initial deployment was a bit complex."
"The solution needs to improve its documentation because it is quite poor."
"The documentation for command lines needs to be improved."
"The routing capabilities of Layer 3 should be made easier to implement."
