Yup. The network engineer in me would never recommend Ubiquiti for any scenario. Maybe it works for WISP because of the price point; I'd have to be convinced.

They run an embedded Mongo DB on their UniFi hardware that (at least in the deployment I've inherited) requires occasional direct interventions[1] to keep running. That's just one example of the many baffling/wrong things they do.

I know Mongo gets quite a bit of undeserved hate, but it really just doesn't seem suitable for this use case.
