Answering a question with more questions :)  What are you currently using?  What appeals to you about this product?

Ubiquity makes fine equipment, especially in the wireless arena.  If you're currently using a different brand however, I don't see enough here that excites me that would make me want to change and learn something new.

I like the Ubiquity stuff.  I use their access points and have looked at their switches just because I like the access points and wireless controller.  However, I am unfamiliar with their firewalls.  Like Tom says, if you use their access points or any other gear by them, there is a benefit.

Edit: Attached is a screenshot of the controller dashboard.  If I had the firewall, there would be more data displayed.

Tom,

We are currently using a ZyXEL USG60 that is shutting down our VoIP system whenever we access the UI.  Support had no easy solutions and we felt it was time to get something new.

Thanx for your input.
