Most of the US leadership and many of the US employees quit in recent years. The CEO wanted to focus on international offices where employees were cheaper. It was backfiring while I was there and I heard it only got worse after I left. Sad situation. I knew a lot of good people there who cared about making good products during the UniFi glory days. Everything collapsed fast. I knew we were in trouble when the CEO's early employee friends were disappearing and their offices were being closed without warning. |

I still see no realistic alternative for the "distributed decent wifi at a reasonably SMB scale" wireless product though. Miraki I guess is as close as it gets, but then you are locked in 100% cloud and it's certainly not remotely the same price point.
I am relegating Unify to manage my APs and (some) switches for ease of use - while I enjoy CLI fun, it gets old doing routine stuff the for the 100th time.
Hopefully another company really steps up in this space, because I can't imagine having to go back to the dark days of individually managed APs and all that.
