The Smart Choice for Business Networking

In today's digital landscape, a reliable and scalable network infrastructure is essential for business success. At Flare Communications, we've installed countless network solutions over our 24+ years of experience, and we consistently recommend Ubiquiti's UniFi product line to our St. Louis area clients. Here's why.

Enterprise Features Without Enterprise Pricing

One of the most compelling advantages of UniFi products is their ability to deliver enterprise-grade features at a price point that makes sense for businesses of all sizes. Traditional enterprise networking equipment from legacy vendors can cost thousands of dollars per device, putting advanced features out of reach for small and medium-sized businesses.

UniFi changes this equation entirely. You get professional-grade managed switches, access points, security gateways, and cameras at a fraction of the cost—without sacrificing quality or capability.

Centralized Management Made Simple

The UniFi Controller software provides a single pane of glass for managing your entire network infrastructure. Whether you're running a small office with a handful of devices or a multi-site enterprise with hundreds of endpoints, you can monitor and configure everything from one intuitive dashboard.

Key management benefits include:

  • Real-time monitoring of all connected devices and network traffic
  • Remote management from anywhere with internet access
  • Automated updates to keep your network secure and running smoothly
  • Detailed analytics showing bandwidth usage, client activity, and performance metrics
  • Guest portal capabilities for visitor WiFi with customizable branding

Scalability That Grows With Your Business

Starting small? No problem. UniFi's modular approach means you can begin with a basic setup and expand seamlessly as your needs grow. Add more access points for better WiFi coverage, upgrade switches for higher port density, or deploy additional sites—all managed from the same controller.

This scalability is particularly valuable for growing businesses that don't want to rip and replace their entire network infrastructure every few years.

Professional-Grade WiFi Performance

UniFi access points deliver exceptional wireless performance with features like:

  • High-density deployments supporting hundreds of concurrent clients
  • Seamless roaming between access points without dropped connections
  • Band steering to optimize client device performance
  • VLAN support for network segmentation and security
  • Multiple SSIDs for separating guest, employee, and IoT traffic

Whether you need coverage for a small office or a large warehouse, UniFi has access point models to fit every scenario.

Built-In Security Features

Security is paramount in today's threat landscape. UniFi products include robust security features such as:

  • Advanced firewall capabilities with deep packet inspection
  • Intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDS/IPS)
  • Automated threat management with regular security updates
  • VLAN isolation to protect sensitive data
  • Guest network isolation to keep visitors off your business network

Integrated Camera Systems

Beyond networking, UniFi Protect offers a complete video surveillance solution that integrates seamlessly with your network infrastructure. High-quality cameras, local storage, and powerful analytics all work together in the same management interface.

Local Support From Flare Communications

While UniFi products are designed to be user-friendly, professional installation and configuration ensure you get the most from your investment. As certified UniFi installers serving the St. Louis area, Flare Communications provides:

  • Expert site surveys and network design
  • Professional installation and configuration
  • Ongoing support and maintenance
  • Training for your IT staff

Whether you're upgrading an outdated network, opening a new location, or building from scratch, UniFi delivers enterprise-grade capabilities without the enterprise price tag.
