I recently switched to Ubiquiti’s Unifi line and am extremely happy, mostly for moral reasons, compared to how I felt being a pfSense user these last few years.
The APs are good and the switches too in my experience. However the UDM-P is a troubled device. It’s buggy, things break or stop working and it loses its config every so often. The form factor is very compelling and the concept is great.
I’d pay more if the software quality were better.
I've been running a UDM and UDMP for years, and have literally never run into any of those issues, despite having a somewhat complex network (for a home network anyway).
It runs 24/7 and only needs reboots when a software update requires it. Multiple VLANs, road warrior VPN. I run a site to site VPN between my UDMP at home and UDM at my summerhouse, and that has been rock solid as well.
In the latest EA version of the software, there is also some support for Wireguard (though UI's Teleport). I'm not sure if "raw" Wireguard is available (yet).
Latest version also implements policy based routing.
I’m in the latest stable version, as I updated after an outage last week where the controller was crashed.
The variability in user satisfaction suggests some sort of hardware issue or bugginess that hits a small portion of users.
Maybe that has changed but I'm not aware that it has.
I just ended up resetting my network (switch, sec gateway, controller, and AP) and it's a little tricky without their cloud. You need to do some SSH'ing.
Caveats aside, the hardware is outstanding, the disk AP is solid as is the consumer grade cube one. It's a good prosumer and small business option despite the downsides.
