I’ve been a fan of Ubiquiti but they seem to be pissing off their existing customers a lot lately.
Off the top of my head:
1. Deprecating UniFi Video in favor of UniFi Protect which only runs on Ubiquiti hardware (and none of the current hardware supports more than a handful of cameras anyway?)
2. Advertising UniFi Protect on existing UniFi Video installations, which is especially obnoxious for installers who sold their customers a complete system
3. Removing SNMP configuration from new firmware versions on certain product lines (EdgeSwitch?)
4. Now this.

- noodlesUK 7y agoThe unifi protect thing is really annoying. I would totally have done an installation already if not for a lack of ability to back up data off the NVR device (cloud key gen2+) or self host on something with more storage. If I do an install with more than a few cameras it’ll only have a day or two of recording on their crappy 2.5in HDD. The software looks so good though. It’s really irritating.
