Ubiquiti Networks UniFi

It is best suitable for outdoor requirements, and has long signal coverage for long-distance coverage, at the same time it is not suitable for indoor areas where obstructions and interferences are high. It is cost-effective also making it suitable for medium-level customers also. Overall a medium product at this budget level.

Ubiquiti's Network Solutions (Hardware and software) are an incredible value to achieve Entry level enterprise networking & networking solutions at whatever scale you need. It has very great user installation guides, it's all very straight forward. Managing the network is a breeze, and it's as easy as pie to add some of the other service offerings at any time!

Small businesses and homes that require a lot of backend networking and/or really thorough WiFi coverage would both benefit from Unifi. The price point is huge as these products, with the lack of ongoing license fees, can fit into most small biz budgets. The simple deployment also means less management, and the fact that it is completely cloud-based allows me to manage these systems from anywhere. As a small business owner myself, this increases my client base without increasing my SLA requirements.

The need to acquire a robust Wi-Fi service is an extra motivation for Ubiquiti Networks UniFi because we have verified that expanding the Wi-Fi range does not have to be complicated, it is true that investment costs must be considered, but we cannot stop investing in broader and more secure connections and the best way could be with Ubiquiti Networks UniFi, there are three departments but we want it to be the entire company in a couple of years.

We had a lot of issues with our WiFi before we went to Ubiquiti Networks UniFi. Our management team wasn't even able to perform a simple meeting without any WiFi flaws. After we purchased the Ubiquiti Networks UniFi, we needed some time to configure it as it's pretty advanced, but once it's running, we can't think of anything else. It's just one of the best.

Ubiquiti Networks UniFi is well-suited :* In Small offices/factories and plants.*Cost-effective solution for specific enterprises facing cost constraint ( No License fee)Ubiquiti.

Networks UniFi is Not well suited:* Large Networks / large no of Users are not supported.* Complex Network facing issues frequently.

Ubiquiti Networks UniFi is a cost-effective wireless solution that is most suited to small to medium enterprises which have a budget constraint for wireless infrastructure deployment and management. It has no additional licenses and you only need to purchase the hardware. Even the WiFi controller is free of cost. This solution, however, is not suitable for large enterprises where the number of users is more than 500 because these APs are not built to handle a large number of users' traffic load.

From our experience, I believe that for simpler installations, like events in large rooms where you don't have too many variables, it should be fine. It would provide internet access to a large number of people with no issues. In our case though, we have multiple floors with several obstacles disturbing the signal propagation. From time to time we have issues with connectivity and have to address those.

I cannot think of a scenario where Ubiquiti is not well suited. the only area may be consumer markets where Ubiquiti's higher-end products are cost-prohibitive.

Any company that has a tight budget and needs to implement good switches and access points while being able to manage them in a central location. Unifi hardware is very cost effective. Don't waste time with gateways and routers though. I believe they are not mature enough to support more complicated configurations and not all config options are yet available in the UI.

I really like Ubiquiti Networks UniFi multi-site functionality. Makes one point of control.

Unifi works well in our organization—we are a health and wellness center (think gym, but more). It's easy to adjust and tweak the signal strength, bands, channels, etc. in order to maximize the member experience in our centers. The outdoor units are perfect for our pools, both indoors and out, as they are weather sealed. We have had large groups of people in one area with only two or three APs to handle the load and they performed beautifully.

Should not be used in any mission critical application. Networking equipment with that high a failure rate points to a significant oversight in quality control. There is a large user forum and multiple reports of similar issues can be found there. Additionally, when equipment does fail, and particularly if it is going to fail this often, support needs to be stellar and instead it’s non-existent.

I would never recommend anyone use these products. EVER.

Most of my colleagues are IT pros, and they use Ubiquiti [Networks UniFi]. The product is awesome for IT departments. End users may not be the best fit for managing these devices.

In the past few months we purchased thousands of dollars in brand new networking equipment from Ubiquiti. IT DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY

We bought 2 sets of hardware. 1 for home office and 1 for work. They both have the same issue (internet stops working). We have emailed literally dozens of times with customer service and they have not been able to resolve the issue. We have requested escalation to more trained technicians and have asked them to log into our system to assess. None of this has happened and our internet continues to intermittently work.

Ubuiqiti Networks Unifi Products work well for home / office / home-office environments where budget, aesthetics / appearance, performance and reliability are important (but not critical), and restrictions with placement requires the devices to be out in the open.

The products are likely less suited for rugged/industrial environments and other mission-critical scenarios where the quality of enterprise support is a major concern.

By providing single-pane-of-glass management for a multi-site deployment, Ubiquiti Networks UniFi makes it easy to have oversight and real-time feedback regarding the state of the network through mobile apps and web interfaces. Unlike competitors, there are no licensing costs to the hardware and the hardware itself is very reasonably priced to begin with. The ecosystem is tightly integrated with networking, security, access control and telephony all working together under the same platform. However, the main drawback is the lack of some enterprise features, which could be of concern to some organizations, therefore a deep review of the needed/desired functionality is recommended before purchase.

For long distances, for areas where there is a lot of metal structure like press, areas where there is a lot of electrical interference and high tension wires of electricity, we have observed following problems while deployment in our environment, for these types of environmental conditions it didn't perform up to the mark.

Ubiquiti Networks UniFi is perfect for simple but enterprise-level implementations. It is easy and quick to set up but has enough advanced features that most small-to-medium businesses will find it useful. Ubiquiti Networks UniFi is a whole suite of products, from wireless APs to security gateways, so it can be a complete solution, too. And with the Cloud Key, it can even be managed remotely if needed.

It would be less appropriate in a very complex, very large, robust network, I feel--especially if you need it to tie into other manufacturers' gear.

Ubiquiti Networks UniFi is suited for multiple site deployments at small to medium-sized businesses while being able to keep track of hundreds of devices. It is not ready for Fortune 500 network infrastructure where you have tens or hundreds of thousands of devices. It is also likely unnecessary for home usage, though I do like their sister WiFi router/mesh called AmpliFi.

Well suited in wireless connectivity for robotics (we are using in Plant robotics), small offices and plants (where Cable laying is an issue). The price is very good and also quick to set up the device (easily manage or handle small offices/home Offices).
Less Appropriate in large scale network environment & in VLAN environment.

Small to Medium businesses with installations in offices or small hotels. Also perfect for home users and smaller network setups.

Ubiquiti line of products is great for home and small businesses, they give the opportunity for these types of users to get advanced features without advanced cost. Managed service providers will also find the remote features are a game-changer when it comes to troubleshooting issues and making changes to a client. Often, we can send one tech to install, while another is at our office doing the configuration, and new equipment is easy to add right out of the box with almost no configuration needed. The one area I would not use UniFi is if reliability is your number one concern as firmware revisions can be buggy and need to be tested before upgrading live equipment.

Ubiquiti Networks UniFi is a cost-effective wireless solution. It can be used to create a point to point link between multiple sites. It also includes products that provide centralized WiFi connectivity solutions for small and medium enterprises. It has a software-based wireless controller which can be installed on any desktop, laptop or virtual machine and can be used to manage multiple access points across different sites.
