We have been using the solution for two years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The solution is stable. Although, we encounter stability issues in crowded areas.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The solution is suitable for small and medium businesses. We have 20-25 users in our organization.
How are customer service and support?
I refer to support documentation in the case of queries for the solution. It is good and helpful.

Low-cost, easy to use, and straightforward to set up
What is our primary use case?
We primarily use the solution for wireless connectivity to the internet in the office. You can roam around and stay connected easily.
What is most valuable?
It's a good option for SMEs.
The stability and performance are great.
It's very easy to use.
The initial setup is fairly straightforward.
The costs to use the product are very low.
What needs improvement?
This might not be the best solution for a very large organization.
They can continue to improve their offering so that they could be used in the future in large enterprises also. It only uses the local connection and it performs to a lesser extent due to this. It's hard to check on things remotely. For example, if I have a branch office somewhere in another city or even another country and someone tells me that something is wrong with the wi-fi or firewall, if I have a good wi-fi solution (for example Cisco or FortiNet), I can simply connect to an access point there. With Ubiquiti, I cannot do that.
There seem to be no access points in Ubiquiti that allow us to use a double link. There is no link redundancy. If a link fails, I lose an access point.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've used the solution for a few years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The solution is stable and the performance is good. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
This is a good solution for small and medium-sized enterprises and not more than that. It might not scale to the needs of very large companies.
We have up to 100 users at this time.
We will likely increase usage in the future.
How are customer service and support?
I've never had any issues with the product and therefore have never contacted support. I can't speak to how helpful or responsive they would be.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
At a previous job, I did work with Cisco. It's hard to compare the two. Cisco is simply on a different level.
How was the initial setup?
While it can cause some problems in installation if you use a software controller, it's actually pretty easy. If you are familiar with the network protocols it is straightforward.
There's only one person that handles deployment and maintenance tasks. That's me. It's pretty low-maintenance.
What about the implementation team?
I can handle the initial setup myself.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The solution is relatively cheap. I personally don't pay for the licensing and therefore can't speak to exact pricing.
What other advice do I have?
We are working with the latest version of the solution right now.
If a company is looking for a low-cost option, I would recommend this product.
I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten. We've been pleased with its general capabilities overall.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
On-premises

Simple management, good connectivity between access points, and pretty scalable
What is our primary use case?
We primarily use the solution for wireless office or home networks.
What is most valuable?
In general, I like the solution very much. The solution has simple management. It's easy to use.
The ability to walk between access points without losing the network is very useful.
Wireless options are pretty easy to buy in Ukraine.
Their hardware is very good.
The company is always innovating on the product. They are continuously working to make it better.
What needs improvement?
In Ukraine at least, it's a problem when it comes to buying the hardware. For example, I made a request for 20 switches a few months ago. The solution needs to have worldwide availability.
I want to get more experienced with switching hardware, however, I need more documentation in order to understand it.
I don't know why they don't sell it like hardware for data centers. For example, I have a Juniper switch which costs $3,000. There's a similar Juniper switch-like item with the same characteristics and it costs $7,700. Marketing shows that it's only for offices and other stuff. For home, for office, but not for the data center. I don't know why.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been using the solution for three or four years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The solution is very stable. It's reliable. There aren't bugs or glitches. It doesn't freeze or anything like that. It's good.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The scalability is quite good. If a company needs to expand out the solution they can do so easily.
We have a little less than 50 users on the solution.
We do plan to continue to use the product and may increase usage in the future.
How are customer service and technical support?
We've found that their online resources are excellent. We've found every answer we needed online, therefore, we've never had to call them up directly.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We did use another solution before this product. It was cheap. However, it was a long time ago, and I can't recall the name of the solution. We switched due to the fact that we were looking to simplify the host management. This solution offered very simple management. That's why we're looking to switch from Juniper to Ubiquiti in our data center. We spend less time managing our hardware.
However, at this point, we aren't able to buy the hardware we need in our country.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is not complex. The implementation was very straightforward and simple.
In terms of deployment, a wireless setup takes about 15 minutes or so. It's pretty fast.
In terms of maintenance, you only need one admin person to handle it.
What about the implementation team?
I handled the implementation myself. I didn't need the assistance of any integrators or consultants.
What other advice do I have?
We're pretty big users. We have a 1,000 server center.
We're using the latest version of the solution.
We use a hardware deployment with UDM pro or Cloud Key.
I would recommend the solution to other organizations.
Overall, I'd rate the solution nine out of ten, simply due to a few problems we have obtaining the hardware.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
On-premises

Needs to improve on the shortcomings in the reliability area, but the setup phase is easy
What is our primary use case?
I use the solution in my company for our different clients who use Ubiquiti Wireless, considering that it is a fairly reliable tool. The tool provides a yearly subscription for a service. The product has a web interface on which you can log in, ensuring that it is always available while allowing you to see what is going on in your environment. You can control the features of the tool. You can use the tool for mapping or building features and to check various access points. With the product in place, you can look at the access points of more than 200 devices, and it can also handle more devices as it allows users to add other access points. With Ubiquiti Wireless, the actual range for the access point is fairly good. The product has features like controller migrations.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable features of the solution from a networking perspective stem from its ability to allow users to customize the various access points, and since our company is able to push in the updates in the tool, we can get better management capabilities and connectivity. Ubiquiti Wireless allows you to see the ports and the power consumed. When Ubiquiti Wireless is used in conjunction with switches, you can stay on the same web interface and manage the switches and access points by using the same credentials. Basically, the tool allows you to manage the whole network through a single web interface. You can give permissions or use SSH on devices and be able to use the command line to do various things, including updating the access points or resetting their statuses. The tool provides a web interface and command line facilities.
What needs improvement?
The product lacks to offer reliability to users. From an improvement perspective, the product needs to be made more reliable. The tool should also offer better support and warranties. The tool only provides a standard warranty, which gets very annoying. I have had experiences where the users of the tool keep receiving updates continuously, and you can have the latest firmware pushed into the solution, which may cause a problem. You can't opt to go for an RMA process or get any support on the tool because it doesn't offer any support after twelve months of purchase.
The latest stuff provided by the product is not as reliable as the older ones provided by the solution.
The product's stability is an area of concern where improvements are required.
The solution's technical support needs to be improved so that users can communicate with faster or more responsive support personnel with knowledgeable technical team members and get customer-friendly support. You can only get support for the product within the first twelve months of purchase, after which you won't get any support.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Ubiquiti Wireless for eight years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Stability-wise, I rate the solution a four or five out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.
Around 2,000 to 3,000 people in my company use the product.
The product is extensively used in my company. My company plans to increase the use of the product.
How are customer service and support?
I rate the technical support a four out of ten.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Neutral
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have experience with Cisco. I started to use Ubiquiti Wireless because of its web interface.
How was the initial setup?
The product's initial setup phase is fairly straightforward, but it all depends on how much of a complex infrastructure you have. In general, the setup process is straightforward. If a user wants to have some advanced stuff during the product's setup phase, the process can get a lot complicated.
With the controller part, the product's user can manage the devices on the cloud.
The solution is deployed on an on-premises model.
The time required to take care of the product's setup phase depends on how a user wants to deal with the setup process. For a simple connection, a straightforward setup process is required. For managing the complex stuff, the setup process can get complicated.
What about the implementation team?
I took care of the product's installation phase.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
There aren't any license costs attached to the product.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I evaluated products from Cisco and Meraki against Ubiquiti Wireless.
What other advice do I have?
Speaking about the indoor or outdoor environments where the tool is deployed, I would say that I have deployed it across offices, hotels, warehouses, and mobile shops.
I wouldn't recommend the product to those who plan to use it.
In the past, I would have rated the product an eight out of ten. Presently, I rate the overall product a four out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

The users gain visibility into the velocity of networking to each user. However, the standout feature lies in its ability to seamlessly manage multiple access points from a single interface.
What needs improvement?
The product or service could be improved by providing round-the-clock support directly from the company. A contract solution with 24/7 support would greatly benefit users, especially in critical situations requiring immediate assistance. It would enable users to address issues promptly and ensure uninterrupted network operation. It is important for small companies like ours, where we may need more expertise to troubleshoot problems independently.
For how long have I used the solution?
We have been using Ubiquiti Wireless for a year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The platform is stable. I rate the stability a nine out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The platform is easy to scale.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We previously used Tableau. However, we encountered challenges integrating various access points into the same networking environment.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is simple. However, it depends on the number of shipments per month. In our scenario, with ten shipments per month, the setup took around four hours. This time frame includes finding all the necessary information on websites, considering our need for prior experience with this equipment. Despite this, we completed the setup within the allotted time frame of four hours.
I rate the process a nine out of ten.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The platform offers a one-time purchase cost. It has competitive pricing.
What other advice do I have?
Ubiquiti wireless proves especially helpful in scenarios requiring mobility. Transitioning from wired to wireless connectivity facilitates flexibility for users previously tethered to Ethernet cables connected to switches.
The platform is very simple to set up and provides a lot of information in the network. It is suitable for small companies. I rate it an eight out of ten.
