Comment on Replacing an Apple Time Capsule? Skip the Ubiquiti UNAS-2

Comments

It's a great pity but I won't be buy more Ubiquiti hardware unless their direction improves. I loved the Ubiquiti hardware until a year or so ago. It was well spec'd, well priced, reliable, and it was easy to upgrade to OpenWrt. (Changing to OpenWrt was definitely an upgrade - get away from their you-must-do-it-our-way software. OpenWrt isn't perfect but mostly just works.)

But Ubiquiti have changed. The new hardware is silly - little screens and do-everything-on-an-app-with-our-cloud firmware. It's my infrastructure, I don't want to rely on your cloud! I only hope they go back to making good hardware and letting us use it for what we want.
