We performed a comparison between Brocade 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 switches last for a very long time."
"The most valuable feature of Brocade Ethernet Switches is the good range of access it provides."
"I have not had any issues with our Brocade switches."
"There's a zone for each server and services in the storage."
"The reliability of Brocade is the most valuable feature. The solution has been up and running for over ten years without any fail, fixes required, or breakdowns. It is a very strong piece of equipment."
"The technical support is good."
"The initial setup was really straightforward and easy."
"It has good integration with HPE Primera. They have smart zoning in which the administration is very easy. You don't have to do anything. Zoning and other things are done automatically if you just enable the smart zoning. That's one very good thing in HP."
"It is a very scalable solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"I would gladly recommend Ubiquiti UniFi Switches."
"Ubiquiti UniFi Switches is a stable 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 can see which ports are connected and which ones are disconnected."
"These switches are very simple to use and the GUI is very nice."
"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."
"There are some performance issues."
"Brocade Ethernet Switches need a better interface and centralized management."
"The solution could be more secure."
"Brocade Ethernet Switches could improve by having better compatibility with web management of older versions."
"These switches are no longer supported."
"No graphical interface."
"It should be simpler. There are still some things that can be simpler in the Brocade switches."
"Functionalities can change quite quickly without notice."
"We need to upgrade everything too often."
"Some of the features needed to set up the solution are too complex. There's a lot of technical information that is required."
"I think they need to provide a better firewall solution."
"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."
"Ubiquiti UniFi Switches need to add DNS lookup features."
"It's difficult to manage the WiFi on the edge switches in the same console."
"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."
