So with Unifi's new Enterprise stuff coming out, is there a reason to still switch to Meraki?
Hi,
IDK if you all are aware of this, but I just found this out. Unifi has been on a little bit of an Enterprise rush lately, with a few notable additions to their stack that make for a compelling argument Meraki.
-Enterprise Campus Aggregation-New Core Switch. 40 25Gbps SFP28 jacks and 8 100Gbps SFP28 jacks. 2Tbps bandwidth. Also each jack individually can be set to their own speed (some switches force you to adjust speed in bunches of ports) Also has true layer 3 support along with MC-LAG, stacking, redundant fans, and redundant PSUs. $4k USD MSRP
-Enterprise Campus 48 POE- Layer 3 Access Switch with 32 10Gbps RJ45 jacks and 16 2.5Gbps Rj45 jacks all UPOE (90W) and 4 25Gbps SFP28 ports. Again with redundant power supplies and redundant fans. $4k USD MSRP.
-Unifi E7 AP- 10Gbps uplink. 10 stream Wifi 7. over 1k clients, 8 BSSIDs and a range of up to 2k sqft. Dedicated radio for channel analysis. 500 USD MSRP.
-Enterprise Fortress Gateway- can run 500 Unifi Devices, Support over 5k clients, SSL Packet Inspection, can run in High Availability, 12.5Gbps max routing with IDS/IPS, 2 25Gbps SFP28 ports, 2x 10Gbps RJ45, and 2x 1Gbps RJ45. $2k MSRP
-Unifi now has dedicated support and advanced RMA if you wanna pay for it.
Convince me that Meraki still makes sense with this. And don't tell me cloud managed because I'm so sick of the cloud at this point.
