So I just purchased my first Ubiquiti networks product. I’ve been a diehard Cisco fan since my early days in the IT field, but it’s worth giving them a chance at least based on the recommendations I’ve had from some colleagues (and some hype). Can Ubiquiti beat Cisco (in my household?) … we’ll see!
I’m going to do a really basic test with just a single, small switch to start with because we’re still in the apartment while house matters are still rolling around (I’ll do a post about the large gap in time since my last post soon, hopefully).
Based on my initial research, they have a really good ecosystem and user experience no matter if you’re doing a small home setup or an enterprise/sport-like setup, so that’s good to hear if it turns out to be true. I’ve only done a limited bit of research so this just whets the whistle so to speak.
Right now I have an HP v1810-48g switch, and on this small desk in small space it takes up a laaaaaaaarge corner of the back of my desk (even though I have it caddy-corner standing up angled off the desk … don’t ask). This new switch will give me a smaller profile and I can save this HP for some other use.
I’ll do a follow-up post and let you know how Ubiquiti turns out.
Until next time,
Andrew
