  What sort of issues? Security ones? That basically came down to a malicious engineer compromising their own infrastructure and then whistleblowing.

    > What sort of issues? Security ones? That basically came down to a malicious engineer compromising their own infrastructure and then whistleblowing. I don't know exactly. I believe they were trying to force cloud-signon for even locally managed devices, and since then I think I've picked up "used to be great" complaints that their quality and support is slipping (like they off-shored their engineering teams or something).

      They're kinda pushing for that (like every other tech business, sadly - and I get it, everyone wants to have that sweet subscription model cash flows), but you still have an option to run a local controller without any cloud nonsense, just have to click some small link beneath some form.

      That's for their routers and firewalls, which were shit even before the cloud stuff. Their switches and APs are pretty good and don't require cloud nonsense.
