"Ubiquiti WLAN needs to expand the models with external antennas. It needs to improve stability."
"The solution needs to improve robustness, security, and stability."
"If they can integrate or release a single platform because, currently, there are two different platforms for switches and routers. So, maintaining just one unified platform, like, for example, unifying the models or brands, and avoiding separate platforms for edge switches, edge routers, and other Ubiquiti products, would simplify the integration and implementation process."
"Switching devices requires reconfiguration from scratch."
"Cloud management is one feature that should be included in the next release. This tool is best suited for small environments, not large and complex ones."
