“Enterprise”

First hand experience many times over: there is little more regrettable than placing Ubiquitis latest test-it-in-prod release in to an Enterprise setting.

Yeah, that's the kind of people you want to be running your company's storage appliance.

Tons of those are pretty basic web security stuff. Nearly as bad as TP-Link, a bargain-basement brand.

Compare and contrast:

Proxmox's record in 2025 wasn't particularly great but it's a hell of a lot better than Ubiquiti's. And before someone starts complaining that it's not a fair comparison because Ubiquiti has so many more products: they have a unified OS and management tools. They also have orders of magnitude more revenue and can afford far more in engineering resources.



I mean it's all prosumer grade stuff. I get hassled at work to sell their network gear over Cisco and Aruba because of the price but it's a flashy and cheap.


UI is so overrated.
