1. The lack of extensive customization is lacking at this time - I don't see Ubiquiti enabling additional features such as shutter/exposure adjustment in the foreseeable future.
2. Water intrusion complaints - when you are purchasing IP cameras at a premium price, you should not have to experience issues such as the following at this price point. Thanks to @wittaj for pointing this out. I get it that quality control can occasionally slip, but be rest-assured, there are design flaws in Ubiquiti cameras that Ubiquiti will not want to admit.
3. Their interior cameras are unnecessarily expensive versus their Chinese counterparts and prices on Ubiquiti products are only increasing at this time time.
4. Have you ever purchased a basic junction box at $50 dollars plus tax?
5. Have you ever been plagued by finding Ubiquiti products out of stock only to wait for months to see them come back in stock? - this is unacceptable
Meanwhile,
I can see why Ubiquiti is not discussed extensively on ipcamtalk - it has not thing to do with favorability; it has to do with simply poor performance, unnecessarily expensive (don't use no subscription fees as an excuse), and lack of availability in respect to camera options (where is the 64mm focal length LPR model?) and lack of inventory.
Prices such as what is shown below are forever gone. Meanwhile you can find a respectable Hikvision minidome camera for $30 on Amazon, perfect for indoor use.
