Support from 3rd party, yes. Support from UBNT is email only still. So, that affects things for some.
Is the Unifi line different?
I've used the LIVE CHAT option on the controller before.

Hugely different. EdgeMax Pro can do much more than the USG for example but the Unifi line gives you all of your devices from a single management tool with tracking and stats between devices seamlessly, also the alerts and reporting is good.
EdgeMax and other devices outside the Unifi range you have to treat like traditional stand alone devices but you get more performance and features as a result.

UniFi = Meraki style cloud management that you don't pay for because it is on a controller you set up instead of on theirs.
EdgeMax = Traditional stand alone router and switches.

Unfortunately UBNT and none of their products show up on the FIPS validated list that I am required to use.

What is FIPS? I don't remember running into that one yet.

Yeah - that's probably why they aren't on the list. To help keep their prices low!

Yup

I guess it matters then... who else is on the list? What about Sophos, are they an option?

Looks like only their disk encryption is.
Here is the list: http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/STM/cmvp/documents/140-1/1401vend.htm.
