I have never heard of a business using them, ever
Now you know we have 2 dlinks. I've found them in place and both are bugged. One even loose config (all: ip, vlan, everything!) in case of power failure. The other isn't able to encapsulate printers packets. don't ask me why. I've had to plug a 10€ spare dlink 5port switch to encapsulate a number of printers.
btw, we also have 2 netgear and 1 used hp procurve 3400 cl. for the sake of completeness I was going to by a linksys too... just to have them all
On the opposite everyone in the supply chain who wants to talk about "reliable" stuff offers dell/hpe-aruba now in my area. Cisco is too much expensive, often. And with Cisco if you go SMB you get really bad stuff.

@matteo-nunziati Netgear ProSafe is actually quite good. Not at all in the category with the ones that you list. I know labs in NYC that use it because it crushes Cisco in performance (latency) for their SANs.

No, no... when we talk about Ubiquiti and Cisco, we are only talking about Cisco's enterprise stuff.

@scottalanmiller yeah, I was aware of the performance of netgear stuff. Simply I was not sure about quality. As a consultant in machine vision I always recommended netgear for small prosafe switches to put on top of machinaries. It was simply reliable "enough", cheap, and fast (which you want with say 4x5+ Mpx cameras and constrained timings)!

Yup, and cheap enough to swap while someone else is trying to fix something is huge. I'll take two devices that I can swap when one dies for a total price of $600 long before I'll take one of $3,000 that fails "a little less often" but can take a day for someone to repair!
