Find out what your peers are saying about Cisco, HPE Aruba Networking, Ubiquiti Networks and others in Ethernet Switches."The most valuable feature of Extreme VDX is that we have had no problems and the solution's performance is excellent."
"The fabric of the solution and the management aspect are the solution's most valuable features."
"Its simplicity and web interface were most valuable. I also liked the two-factor authentication."
"The product's initial setup phase is very straightforward."
"The value here with using the Ubiquiti products across the board is that they're almost all single-pane management and the single-pane management is included. It's a huge benefit."
"It offers very good control."
"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."
"I would gladly recommend Ubiquiti UniFi Switches."
"I like the control one has with this solution."
"It is very easy to deploy. The deployment time for a single device is a near instant."
"I haven't found the cost of the solution to be too high."
"I would like the ability to stack with different switch brands."
"Its scalability can be better. If possible, it can have Hyper POE. I am not sure if there is a fiber version."
"The only problem is that at the moment it's an Extreme product and Extreme is not really pushing it. They have to make up for weak innovation and I'm not sure if they want to do that."
"The support is pretty much email-based and that's horrible for an enterprise product. I can't call anybody right away."
"I think they need to provide a better firewall solution."
"The stability and installation could be improved."
"It would be beneficial for us if Ubiquiti had a team of advanced data transportation specialists that we could get feedback from. We are not experts in data transportation, so having this sort of resource would be helpful for us."
"Most configuration can be done on the GUI but sometimes you have to go under the hood and tweak on the CLI."
"I would recommend changing the solution to a recognized one, such as Check Point or Fortinet."
"We have been having issues with non-homogeneity."
"I had some initial problems with the configuration that necessitated contacting technical support."
