We performed a comparison between D-Link 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."We use the solution for the network and ethernet connection."
"The main selling point for me was the pricing. Moreover, the performance is good. I haven't had any issues so far."
"The initial setup was very easy and user-friendly."
"Its integration is the most valuable."
"The initial setup of D-Link Ethernet Switches is very easy."
"D-Link has a graphical interface that is easy to use. It is simple enough that our junior technicians can configure the switches."
"It is very stable and reliable."
"These switches are simple and easy to configure."
"I can see which ports are connected and which ones are disconnected."
"The GUI interface is very easy to use and the Linux-based command-line interface is also good."
"The switches' PoE capabilities have made device deployment very easy."
"The most valuable feature of Ubiquiti UniFi Switches is the graphic user interface for monitoring, where you can see the status of the device in real-time. I use those features across the campus. I use the APs as my beacons to tell me whether the area of the school of the network is down or not. Those will be the first to alert me that there is a problem with the network or a device. They provide me with more than only monitoring themselves, I use them in order to monitor all the devices."
"It's very easy to deploy – much easier than MikroTik. It's very seamless and well-designed."
"I like the control one has with this solution."
"The interface and the duality are the solution's most valuable features."
"Great information on the graphical interface."
"The solution needs better local support."
"Its security features need improvement."
"The solution could be cheaper."
"It should be more stable, and it should have good integration with the cloud. It should support configuration, supervision, and control through the cloud."
"There is room for improvement in terms of stability."
"They need to enhance stability."
"They could be more stable. They were not as resistant as Cisco. After some time, some of them failed. This could be because we import quite a lot of products from different horizons, so there is no guarantee of quality. In Africa, these products don't always directly come from the manufacturer. We get these products from the Middle East or Asia. Therefore, you cannot be sure that the quality is exactly similar to what you have in Europe or America."
"In a future release, the solution could improve by being more secure and allowing the configuration of each port."
"The solution needs to improve its documentation because it is quite poor."
"There is currently an issue with supply of switches which needs to be sorted out."
"The routing capabilities of Layer 3 should be made easier to implement."
"I would like to see the pricing improved."
"The VPN technology in Ubiquiti products is really difficult for beginners who do not have the right skills."
"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 price could be lower."
"New products don't integrate well with their management platform. Sometimes you have to go directly to the box or the switch to do the management."
