One of the truly sad things about all this though is precisely that UniFi made this a lot easier for small orgs and even individuals (and could have gone even farther). Stuff like VLANs and RADIUS became dramatically more accessible "for free", using just what was built-in to a UniFi stack someone might get anyway. Back when they were still more competent Ubiquiti added management VLAN support across the lineup, and the setup is fairly intuitive and then just works. At one point I'd hoped they'd continue in that direction much more. It's not some impossible thing, it mainly just needs better UX putting the pieces together in a graspable way. Graphical VLAN topologies and point-and-click, automating all the certificate authentication/signing stuff, the generation of profiles for onboarding, all the components for this stuff exist right now just not, well, unified.
I think a lot of places don't want to in fact, because they'd rather push cloud ties since that can yield subscription revenue.
