We performed a comparison between Arista Networks Platform and Ubiquiti UniFi Switches based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Ethernet Switches solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution has good load latency. They're the market leader in this aspect right now."
"We find the CloudVision switching feature of this solution really useful."
"I like the spine as a leaf model and low latency. The hardware is robust and meets expected latency in all environments, mainly if you belong to the media or trading industry. For multicast-based solutions, Arista is number one."
"Arista Networks Platform offers straightforward deployment, and has good features. Support for the platform is also good."
"Arista Networks Platform has a feature that helps with monitoring and management."
"They support open standard features."
"It provides telemetry and visibility for many metrics that are not supported by most of the other vendors. Out of the box, no third party solutions are needed."
"It's an extremely reliable platform for the network switches we use."
"I would gladly recommend Ubiquiti UniFi Switches."
"Because it's a managed switch, I have the ability to set controls and configure traffic priorities, VLAN ports, etc."
"The integration with the controller is one of the most valuable features of these switches. They are also very stable. For example, we have some equipment that we haven't touched for four years that is still reliable."
"The switches' PoE capabilities have made device deployment very easy."
"Good price point and very simple to use."
"This product is very reasonably priced."
"Ubiquiti is one step above the consumer level. They cost a little bit more, but they just seem to be drop-dead reliable, and they're keeping up with the latest standards."
"The solution’s scalability is good."
"The product fails to offer functions related to cloud orchestration, making it in areas where improvements are required."
"The community is good but is not good enough. It still needs to grow more."
"The solution is a bit pricey."
"Something that you will often hear about Arista products is that the price is a bit too high and, like with Cisco, we sometimes have problems with our customers because of its pricing."
"They should have a more stable code."
"My company does face issues in terms of interoperability when it comes to the product, making it an area that needs to be fixed."
"The CVP management platform needs to be improved."
"A smoother transition between ISPs during failover would improve the user experience by reducing unnecessary notifications and interruptions."
"If Ubiquiti UniFi Switches had some live support instead of community support, that would go a long way."
"We have been having issues with non-homogeneity."
"UniFi lacks the granularity."
"This brand is not very popular in China."
"It would be beneficial for us if Ubiquiti had a team of advanced data transportation specialists that we could get feedback from. We are not experts in data transportation, so having this sort of resource would be helpful for us."
"I would like to see the pricing improved."
"The initial deployment was a bit complex."
"They can improve the visibility of networks to match Meraki switches, which have good visibility tools to go through the network. In a Meraki device, you get a clear picture when using the bug interface. You can also see its neighbors and have a clear picture of all connected devices. Ubiquiti UniFi Switches do not have such features that Meraki switches provide."
