I am not 100% happy with it but it is the best prosumer option I can find without making managing home network a full time job for myself.
Security wise it is not great, but I don't think it is worse than other consumer products (tplink, netgear...etc). At least ubiquiti patches vulnerabilities reasonably fast.
Their cloud infra sucks and the whole data breach / lawsuit drama people constantly bring up was all because (I think?) a former employee had a static AWS access key with admin level access. Small companies are usually not good at dealing with internal threats. I don't use the cloud service anyways and self-host the network controller.
Now my biggest complain is that I have to manage a mongodb 3.x cluster for the controller...
- xxpor 4y agoFWIW they have a docker option for the controller (what I use) and I'm barely aware it runs mongo.
- zzyzxd 4y agoI know there are community maintained container images. "They" don't have an official one though. In fact I run it in a container as well, but I configures it to talk to an external mongodb cluster. I need it to be an external cluster with some redundancy, so that I can easily backup the database, fix file corruption, and deal with other database errors.
- xxpor 4y agoYeah, sounds like your deployment is probably a lot larger/more serious than my 2 AP at home deployment then ;)
