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 scalability is great."
"The most valuable feature is performance."
"Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches are stable since no issues have been reported."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the support."
"It's stable and we never have to worry about it."
"I found the feature of having no downtime to be the most valuable aspect of the tool."
"The most valuable feature is the dynamic routing."
"Integration is much easier than with competitor products because it allows for segmentation inside the network."
"The product’s most valuable features are stability and scalability."
"I like the control one has with this solution."
"UniFi Switches' best feature is the ability to switch voltage from 24 to 48, and it's almost the only device on the market with this feature."
"Good price point and very simple to use."
"I haven't found the cost of the solution to be too high."
"It's been working fine, it's been stable, and there are no interruptions."
"Great information on the graphical interface."
"The tool's most valuable feature is port security, which allows blocking/disabling ports. The ports also have PoE capability."
"They need to develop better UI. Other products have a nice GUI."
"I would like to see more manageability. That's primarily the reason why Linksys switches don't work in the enterprise space. They don't have the management and capabilities of other switches."
"The documentation should be improved from Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches. Although it hints or refers to being able to do certain operations, they try to get you to load the software instead. They need to be more open with their documentation on using the web interface and give the client the option to use the software or not. This improvement is not on the switch itself, it is in the packaging."
"The product must be made cloud-based."
"The installation could be simplified."
"They could work on the pricing and make it more affordable for everyone."
"In the next release I would really love to see a list option."
"Integration is not easy since the device component is separate."
"I'd like there to be better reporting for the solution."
"If Ubiquiti UniFi Switches had some live support instead of community support, that would go a long way."
"The support is pretty much email-based and that's horrible for an enterprise product. I can't call anybody right away."
"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."
"The VPN technology in Ubiquiti products is really difficult for beginners who do not have the right skills."
"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."
"I would like to see the pricing improved."
"We've had issues with the power supply. I've had to change the power supply twice. I'm not sure what the issue is. We're still trying to work out why we're having problems with the switches and the cutting of the power supply. The solution should look into this to see if there is something wrong with the product."
