Find out in this report how the two Wireless WAN solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The Cisco solution is good, the new GUI looks good and we are seeing more telemetry from it."
"Recently, the most valuable and in-demand feature that users are enjoying is WiFi 6 support on the access points. The other good thing about Cisco Wireless LAN is how easily it provides clean access to the WiFi network."
"It's a reliable solution."
"Mobile anchoring and graphic user interface are helpful features."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"I give the scalability a nine out of ten."
"The most valuable features for me are the ease of operation and scalability."
"It just gives you the ability to use it around the office without being tied up to an actual physical connection."
"We have not had an issue with Ubiquiti Wireless since we have been using it. The solution is highly reliable."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is a simple and useful tool that offers good performance."
"Ubiquiti is easier to install than Mikrotik."
"Their hardware is very good."
"I would say that the user experience is pretty good in this solution as well as the roaming solution part of it."
"We have found the product to be scalable."
"Ubiquiti devices are centrally managed, and you can log into the access points via SSH. If the GUI isn't working for some reason, you can intervene via SSH."
"Ubiquiti Wireless is easy to use, it's stable and flexible, and the performance is great. It is scalable as well."
"It needs to increase its strength in capacity."
"The price of Cisco Wireless WAN could improve, it is expensive."
"Include more managing features within the product, rather than having to purchase them as extras."
"The technical scalability is easy, but the license scalability is quite tricky."
"The initial setup and deployment should be easier."
"Cisco Firewall cannot recognize some applications and that makes dealing with policies difficult. Even when we whitelist, it does not work well."
"We feel that Cisco is quite expensive, so we're looking for a reasonable alternative. We are considering Aruba and some other brands that are less expensive. Cisco works fine, but the issue is the annual licensing and support costs."
"The price has room for improvement."
"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."
"The control system can be improved by making it easier."
"The cost is on the higher side and could be lower."
"Sometimes we have some micro breaks we do not know what causes them."
"Ubiquiti could develop a more elaborate firewall solution. Their firewall solutions at the moment are entry-level. Maybe they don't want to bring those products in because many people prefer putting a third-party firewall into a solution like that. We usually do."
"I would like to see more cloud features that some of the other competitors such as Cisco Meraki have that are very nice."
"A contract solution with 24/7 support would greatly benefit users, especially in critical situations requiring immediate assistance."
"The technical support services need improvement."
