Reviews around manage (5.00 of 5)

  • Haven't seen managed switch/router configuration adjustment like this in any appliance for this kind of money
  • Mikrotik delivers a flexible, high performing, reliable router/firewall/managed switch/2GHz access point with 24 Gigabit ethernet interfaces and an SFP fibre input that if all were purchased in combination or individually in other offerings would cost at least 5 times as much.
  • Excellent 24 port managed switch and the WiFi is great.
  • On the other hand, if you need / want a really great managed switch, these are a great bargain and at this time can't be beat

Reviews around understand (5.00 of 5)

  • My rule is now changed, as on MikroTik devices, most open source products do not substantially improve upon RouterOS capability (though it may be easier to have a well understood interface)
  • The web interface is straightforward but if you don't have a solid understanding of Layer2/Layer3, VLANs, iptables, NAT and routing you will be overwhelmed with all the options

Reviews around source code (5.00 of 5)

  • (MikroTik has been accused by some of being in violation of GNU, as RouterOS source code and modified Linux source code does not seem available, easily available or complete)

Reviews around hone (5.00 of 5)

  • Is is a well evolved, feature rich product which presents a well honed and integrated network management solution to users
  • RouterOS is not as open as other firmwares, but is very well documented, it has a well honed interface, and seems to bundle more features than most open source packages

Reviews around device (3.86 of 5)

  • The benefit is an amazingly capable device, at an amazingly low cost for the function
  • If you are having difficulty configuring your device, and do not understand Linux firewalls, the online community may not be very helpful
  • RouterOS is the trademarked Linux based firmware which is found inside almost all MikroTik smart devices
  • If you wanted a lot of ethernet ports, and a basic router, and didn't change much but the default password, it is possible this is a good device for a typical home user
  • But as long as you know what you are doing, this is a great device

Reviews around feature (3.22 of 5)

  • I haven't gotten into to much of the configs or other features but it does great things and is very feature rich.
  • It's LCD is dim, and the touchscreen feature isn't very robust
  • This switch is feature rich but not intuitive for beginners.
  • the advantages over existing firmware were always so substantial that any loss of a proprietary feature was irrelevant
  • This is a great full featured product, but you get what you pay for.

Reviews around router (3.09 of 5)

  • My ranking of networking equipment I am currently using so far are Mikrotik (I have the Cloud Router Switch and Switch), Asus (RT-AC5300 & 87U
  • If you want something a bit exotic, complex, that functions more as a very expensive router or switch, you can do that too
  • If you have the skills, then this is a very fast router that will give excellent enterprise class operation for consumer level dollars!
  • Without a doubt, the best router for your money is Mikrotik
  • You want a fast router for gigabit with 24 gigabit ports
