Brian Cook Senior Technology Specialist - VP Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points We have tried ZyXEL, Cisco Meraki, Data, and Cloudtrax. None have provided the full feature set at anywhere near the cost. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Technician Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points I've used Meraki AP and switches in a large-scale organization and Ubiquiti on a smaller scale. There is a big cost difference, and due to the different sizes and scope of the projects, it's difficult to compare or contrast. Both have worked great for each organization. Incentivized Helpful? Sachin Vinay Network Administrator Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points Ubiquity is easy to configure, first-time installation and management is a lot easier, the controller is free of charge and access points worked well with the software controller. Helpful? Gavin Scott-Miller Director Of Operations Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points Cisco is a much more industry standard integrated solution. However with that comes a lot of bloat & a lot of settings that just aren't needed. UniFi is really a great competitor because it's so light that you could use this solution in your house if you really had the drive … Incentivized Helpful? Vin Campbell IT Director Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points Cisco Meraki; Aruba; Juniper: I've looked at all of these. I have a ton of experience deploying and using Cisco Meraki. I love their solution.

CC Carlos Coque System Administrator Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points I prefer Cisco Meraki MX when compared to the similar solution from Unify. Cisco Meraki is much more stable and the cloud interface is quite better. Cisco Meraki belongs to a more expensive price range, though. I believe that Ubiquiti Networks UniFi is a good solution for the … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Manager Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points Ubiquiti is overall easier to work with. There is no special training needed to accomplish many of the things required with a Cisco product. Since my time is stretched thin, I need something that I can manage without being weighed down by command-line communications. Also, I am … Incentivized Helpful? Michael Metalios I.T. Administrator Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points Aruba is expensive. Very expensive compared to Unifi. Their power requirements tend to be higher as well. It makes Unifi an easy choice over Aruba. That being said, Arubas are very well made devices. I feel their interfaces are a bit more cumbersome than Unifi. Between … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Engineer Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points Ubiquiti is the worst of all network products I've ever used - with the worst support. Even Netgear - as much of a joke as they are - have better products and support. Helpful? Tomasz Lipinski Director of New Technologies and Development Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points Easier configuration, better price. Incentivized Helpful? Hunter Bonner Chief Editor Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points There is no comparison really. The fact that I am not using those others, as in, not even considering what they have to offer, should speak volumes on how well Ubiquiti WLAN stacks up. It just ranks across the board as the best solution. In fact, when a new Ubiquiti product … Incentivized Helpful? Adrian Takacs Infrastructure Engineer Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points Access to a cloud based controller is free of charge, the Ubiquiti products are more performant and have more features/capabilities. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Technician Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points This product was recommended to us by our vendor so we went with it and have not been disappointed.

Donny McIver Principal Owner; Senior Consultant Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points Compared to the recurring costs to maintain support / licenses with Cisco or Aerohive, Unifi products NEVER require additional licensing costs to operate or administer. In todays age of technology advances, it's a pleasure to work with a product line that has a unified admin … Incentivized Helpful? Matthew Frederickson Director of Information Technology Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points No contest - Fortinet is Enterprise ready and a good replacement. More expensive then Ubiquiti, but in the areas we've tested them, the performance (and ease of installation and configuration) makes it worth the price. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Professional Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points Cisco wireless is super expensive and the management is very complex. Ubiquiti wireless is both affordable and simple to setup. Ubiquiti has a more user friendly interface. Cisco does have more settings and more network monitoring stats but it's typically not worth the price. Incentivized Helpful? John Rivers Owner, IT Consultant Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points Ubiquiti uses profiles to manage their devices, like other vendors, but the functionality, easy of configuration, automated updates make Ubiquiti a better fit for SMB. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Director Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points When compared to the leader, Cisco, Ubiquiti Networks UniFi cuts costs tenfold and, depending on the needs of the organization, can perform just as well.

Verified User Technician Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points Cisco is far more enterprise-level, and if your network is already all Cisco, it ties in well. Of course, that means it's as complex as Cisco gear usually is--each feature comes with more to know and understand, whereas the simplicity of Ubiquiti Networks UniFi makes it far … Incentivized Helpful? Mike Vaughan AWS Infrastructure Architect Chose UniFi WiFi Access Points They are two different animals. One was an enterprise-level CLI-based deployment/management tool I used at VZW and the other is a GUI deployment/management tool fit for small/medium businesses that don't want to devote teams of people to manage it.

Likelihood to Recommend	Ubiquiti Networks I love the equipment for small-scale commercial solutions and quality without the price tag. I might not recommend their products for a large organization with multiple locations and servers. However, the GUI interface will allow remote access and setup across the network. I think this is a great solution for small businesses and families or home office solutions, provided there is some IT knowledge for setup and maintenance.

Pros	Ubiquiti Networks Ubiquti WLAN is very easy on setup for fast deployment. The monitoring software is offered at different level. Cloudkey, or just throwing up their free controller on a PC somewhere. It also does a great job of publishing timely updates to firmware, and addressing bug issues. The ease of the interface, without adding a bunch of fluff, makes this literally the best out there in my opinion. Incentivized Hunter Bonner Chief Editor Read full review
Cons	Ubiquiti Networks Initial configuration of access points can be rather tricky. Each one I have installed was a complete pain to get setup and connected with the UniFi Controller software. I never worked out what causes me problems, but thankfully once I've stumbled through the correct procedure, it does work completely reliably after that, for years on end. The UniFi Controller software will nag you to share usage data. When offered to opt-in, I choose not to do so, but you'll eventually be nagged again on a future login. Some of the 'tooltips' within the Controller software could be more informative. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	Ubiquiti Networks Ubiquiti makes great Access points at various tiers provided far better coverage and throughput than consumer-grade wireless repeaters and routers. We have not had any performance complaints from guests or from the administration who use the wifi on a daily basis. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	Ubiquiti Networks Ubiquiti support is minimal, which is said to help decrease the cost of the equipment. However, with many reports of emails going directly to the Ubiquiti support line taking days to hear a response, you're better off either engaging with the community forums for help from fellow UniFi users or reaching out to a reseller that has training on the equipment that can assist.

Alternatives Considered	Ubiquiti Networks Ubiquiti is overall easier to work with. There is no special training needed to accomplish many of the things required with a Cisco product. Since my time is stretched thin, I need something that I can manage without being weighed down by command-line communications. Also, I am able to use my wireless devices to maintain every Ubiquiti device on my network. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	Ubiquiti Networks Can't say it enough, prices are awesome, so ROI is very high IMHO. Remote cloud management allows me to service more clients at greater distances. Project estimates become much more attractive when you can show the savings vs more expensive solutions. Incentivized Vin Campbell IT Director Read full review
