Easily accessible through any standard web browser and the UniFi mobile app (iOS or Android), the UniFi Controller software features an intuitive UI and support for the next generation of UniFi devices. Important network details are logically organized for a simplified, yet powerful, interface.
Packed with Features
Use the UniFi Controller to provision thousands of UniFi APs and UniFi Security Gateways, map out networks, quickly manage system traffic, and provision additional UniFi devices.
Network Overview
A comprehensive overview of your Network Health is readily available in the new dashboard. Monitor your network’s vitals and make on‑the‑fly adjustments as needed.
Predictive Maps
Upload a map of your location(s) or use Google Maps to represent the areas where your UniFi devices are located. Starting with v5.6, you can also use the predictive map feature to get a preview of coverage, and to help you avoid dead spots.
Deep Packet Inspection
Ubiquiti’s proprietary Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) engine includes the latest application identification signatures to track which applications (and IP addresses) are using the most bandwidth.
