We performed a comparison between Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches 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 most valuable feature of Cisco routers is that they are robust."
"I would recommend Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches to other organizations."
"It is a scalable solution."
"Manageable features, which we heavily used like web GUI and SNMP."
"They are good for connecting users. These switches are very stable. We have been using them for three years, and we haven't had any problems."
"The most valuable features are uptime and stability."
"It's scalable. It is cloud-based controlled. We don't need to buy a dedicated controller. It allows me to control all of my access points everywhere in all my companies."
"I have found their security features the most valuable. These security features are supported on most of the other features. Similarly, the protocols and the standards are supported on other features, such as the stacking feature, the availability feature, internet channel, link application, and protocols. There are so many features on these features."
"Ubiquiti's network management and the way you can manage many different devices on a network are really nice."
"The switches' PoE capabilities have made device deployment very easy."
"The GUI interface is very easy to use and the Linux-based command-line interface is also good."
"The user interface makes it simple to configure and manage."
"Good price point and very simple to use."
"The central management is provided by the UniFi management system. You can manage everything from a single interface. The SDN mode that the entire unified system uses is a software-defined network format."
"It is great size-wise and the user interface is easy to use. You don't need to be a pro to use this solution."
"The product is seamless and robust."
"The price of the solution should be lower and it should have better security and scalability."
"Its scalability can be better. It is not suitable for enterprises. It is for small and medium businesses. It also needs system improvements. It needs new technology to improve the system."
"You do need a bit of knowledge about the solution. There's a small learning curve involved when implementing the product."
"The installation could be simplified."
"Integration is not easy since the device component is separate."
"The solution is costly."
"The drawbacks come from support. The tools are rare, but to find someone knowledgeable with Cisco, is a problem."
"In the future, I would like to see more focus on software-defined networking solutions."
"One area for improvement would be having a web interface directly on the device itself. That's the one thing that makes them more difficult for less experienced technicians to configure."
"Most configuration can be done on the GUI but sometimes you have to go under the hood and tweak on the CLI."
"The routing capabilities of Layer 3 should be made easier to implement."
"It would be helpful to have better visibility into exactly what is going on in the network."
"Ubiquiti UniFi Switches need to add DNS lookup features."
"I had some initial problems with the configuration that necessitated contacting technical support."
"I'd like there to be better reporting for the solution."
"Ubiquiti UniFi Switches can improve by putting more effort into security. There are not many options in security. Other solutions, you can filter, do access control, and functionality. Ubiquiti UniFi Switches provides all the basic network security where it's all about the password for someone to access the SSID on the network, but it doesn't go beyond advanced network features of packet filtering, monitoring, and managing users."
