      @DustinB3403 but they cost £320+ why them over the Netgear Prosafe or GS724 range? or the HP ones
      what makes the Ubiquiti ones £100 more worth it 🙂

        Because Netgear is a joke and HP's aren't much better than the Netgear equipment. I can't help you with the cost, it is the better option.

          @DustinB3403 actually Netgear makes some seriously good stuff. Its our main go to for switching. A big networking lab in NYC has to use it because it outperforms nearly everything.

            I've been very happy with the HP switches I've had here for the past 10 years. I replaced them with UBNT mostly because they were cheaper than the HPs I was looking at at the time.

              I'm another one in the not afraid to use HP camp. I do want to try out a UBNT switch though.

                Trying to select a switch for the Stores.
                Find one then change my mind, look for something else and think "do I really need this advanced"??

                Requirements are:-
                Web Managed
                24port
                Non-PoE and PoE Version
                Layer 3 lite/Layer2+ is a bonus (so I can do some simple routing)

                Keep going from
                Ubiquiti 24 Lite (£160 ish)
                HP Office Connect 1920 (£120 ish)
                Netgear GS724Tv4 (£106 ish)

                So HP is the one that I'd skip here. Not that it is bad, but I at least prefer the other two.

                Ubiquiti is not just web managed, but can be connected to UNMS. That's a huge deal. And it is free.

                Netgear has a line that can do the same thing, but you pay a small fee to do it.

                In both cases, this is probably something that you really want and will be sorry if you don't get it.

                  I would never buy something today that does not report back to a controller.

                    On the other side, I have had nothing but issues with Netgear switches over the years.

                      I am looking into setting up OCR search with NC. Anyone do that in NC 15?

                          I'm using the Full Text Search... That's not what you're talking about is it?

                          (Edit: Yes, I know what OCR stands for).

                                FTS and OCR are totally different things. One is searching text, one is optical recognition of hand written or photographic text being turned into text.

                                  what do you use?

                                  I have no need for OCR. We are paperless, have been for a LONG time. We don't need to scan photographs for text.

                                      To get the FTS, you need to install ElasticSearch and the associated NC plugins... I haven't installed OCR on mine.

                                            Yeah I've had nothing but good things with Netgear and is my "normal" go to switch. I've used a few HP and they work 😁

                                            @JaredBusch @scottalanmiller with regards to "talking to a controller". I do have a UNMS server running with 2 EdgeSwitches running, one under my desk and one in a store. Apart from setting them up I've not signed in to do anything. So I'm thinking a basic switch that I can ping to make sure it's still running with zabbix will do 😁 but I am tempted to just use the EdgeSwitches lites for the stores.
