(1-25 of 38)IT Staff Force Multiplier.
- Unifi has been a force multiplier for us, our techs can spend more time fixing issues and less time traveling.
- Cost is low enough that it is easy to convince clients to use it, all the features are great but if your client won't pay for them it doesn't help you.
- Clients are happier because we can make network-wide changes while they are on the phone instead of waiting for someone to get out there.
- Clients faced disconnecting issues
- Outdoor units performed well.
- Budget was in line with our requirements.
- We saved around $90,000 from going with a vendor who would have installed all these network & security options
- Management / Administration time has been very low to iron out any bugs
- Ubiquity being one integrated system saves a lot of time in administration
- 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.

Ubiquiti Networks UniFi Makes Infrastructure Easy

Unifi offers great features at a better price point
- Unifi's excellent price points make it easy to add an AP if necessary without breaking the bank.
- The initial problem with Gen1 Cloud Keys caused a lot of problems for us. The units would reboot or corrupt themselves and configuration locally or via remote was impossible. They have since fixed the problem.
- Being simple to set up has made them a go-to for installing at new sites, and we can easily train some of our lesser-experienced techs on how to use the controller software for maintenance and monitoring.
UniFi ‘d Mess
- The networking equipment failures have caused delays to critical system startup
- The Protect system failures have rendered an entire multi-camera system useless
- The extremely slow support has left us in limbo in getting critical systems fixed
Bad Product - Even Worst Support
- Very negative impact - entire site is down, issues are constant and support is non-responsive.
- Saving the couple of hundred bucks buying this cheap stuff is NOT worth it if the products don't work and if they have no support at all.

A great mid-level solution at an entry-level price
- Inexpensive: For a few hundred dollars, we were able to set up a guest WiFi network that covers our entire building.
- Secure: Because of the ease of setup, we were able to set this up completely separate from our work network, which saved money and time on configuring our other network infrastructure for public WiFi.
- Management: Although we don't monitor the traffic that much, it is an easy thing to do, and we can use these reports to show management how often employees are online and using bandwidth.
