GWN7813P vs Unifi-USW-Pro-24-PoE
3 Free Wi-Fi Management Options
The GWN7813P offers 3 free management options: cloud based (GWN.Cloud), software based (GWN.Manager) and embedded (built-in to the web UI). This makes for easy management that is accessible from anywhere at anytime. Unifi-USW- Pro-24-PoE has only one management option via the Unifi Controller which is free, however the cloud hosted option needs to be paid for leading to extra costs.
Forwarding Rate
The GWN7813P has a forwarding rate of 95.232 mega packets per sound proving that the GWN7813P will process the number of network packets quicker than the Unifi-USW-Pro24-PoE that has a forwarding rate of 65.472 mega packets per sound which is significantly lesser than the Unifi-USW-Pro-24-PoE.
List Price
The GWN7813P is the more cost effective model out of the 2 having a list price of $459 whereas the Unifi-USW-Pro-24-PoE has a list price of $589 even though the features of the GWN7813P are far superior than it’s competitor.
