In 2020, I switched to UniFi’s network products for my multi-gig fiber setup, seeking better performance than off-the-shelf devices, and Ubiquiti has consistently delivered reliable results without disappointment.
Pros: Supports 200+ UniFi devices and 2,000+ clients with robust 5 Gbps IDS/IPS performance, redundant storage via dual 3.5″ HDD bays with RAID and built-in 128 GB SSD for NVR, advanced features including WireGuard VPN, QoS, firewall, and multi-WAN failover for reliable enterprise use.
Cons: Lacks built-in PoE ports, requiring separate PoE switch for UniFi devices, high price point at $599, suited for advanced users rather than beginners.
