"In general, the setup process is straightforward."
"I like the simplicity, the ease of use."
"I like the fact that you can set it up like a wireless connection. Previously, we used to connect from one SSID to another. When we started using Ubiquiti, everyone was so happy because even if they moved from one place or another, say from the pantry to a meeting room, they didn't need to connect manually to another SSID. This is one of the features that I really like about it. It is doing a great job. It offers a free controller that you can use to see if the devices are connected or not and if they are up or down."

"One of the Ubiquiti access points broke down, and it can't be used. It's still down now, so overall Ubiquiti hasn't been a good experience for me."

"Tech support is mostly remote and could be better."
"The solution should offer simpler management for guests. That would be helpful in the hospitality industry, for example."
"We need an official distributor in Egypt as we don't have one right now."
"This solution should be more robust when it comes to connectivity and improve wireless technology."
