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."Manageable features, which we heavily used like web GUI and SNMP."
"The most valuable feature is basic networking functionality."
"I use the tool because of its performance, reliability, and security."
"The deployment of the solution is quite fast."
"The most important feature related to this solution is that most of the time, it covers all of what we need for our projects."
"Their speed and their ability to handle the network well are the most significant aspects of the product."
"Linksys switches are easy to use. You can pull the switch out of the box, plug it in, and it's going to work."
"It's very easy to configure URLs."
"I would gladly recommend Ubiquiti UniFi Switches."
"The two most valuable features are the remote access user and the side-to-side connection."
"The most valuable feature for us is the VPN."
"The ability to deploy quickly and then having one central location for all the settings are its most valuable aspects."
"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 GUI interface is very easy to use and the Linux-based command-line interface is also good."
"The product's initial setup phase is very straightforward."
"For the world where you have to balance traffic and traffic loads and bandwidth, their GUI makes it really easy because the switches, though they are enterprise grade level two or level three switches, the GUI is designed so that it's easy to set up VLANs where you need to control your traffic so that your phones don't break up and get choppy because of other people loading the network down too heavily."
"We are using an old version of this solution and it could be more stable."
"Another area of improvement is scalability."
"It's no longer stable, the Wi-Fi on this device is no longer stable."
"Scalability-wise, this solution is not designed for small businesses."
"In the next release I would really love to see a list option."
"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 pricing for this solution needs to be improved."
"Integration is not easy since the device component is separate."
"The product needs to improve its pricing."
"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."
"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."
"The initial deployment was a bit complex."
"It would be nice if there was a way to label all of the ports on it so that I could include information about where the various connections go."
"One of the downsides of the solution stems from the limited warranty that it offers to users."
"In the next release, it would be beneficial to include a face recognition feature for door access control to enhance security and user convenience."
"The solution needs to improve its documentation because it is quite poor."
