According to our access point controller expert
Manage all your Ubiquiti UniFi access points from 1 interface with the Ubiquiti UniFi Cloud Key G2 Plus. Thanks to the integrated hard drive, you can manage the data of 4 times as many access points as with a regular Cloud Key. Connect this Cloud Key to your network and set it up in a few minutes using Bluetooth and the app for your smartphone or tablet. You can then configure and monitor all your access points from a single overview. For example, you can see the number of connected devices and the amount of traffic on your WiFi network. The display on the Cloud Key itself shows you the most important information. The integrated battery ensures that you won't lose any data in case of a power outage.

After having an old switch for 15 years it was time to upgrade my network. Being an IT professional, I was looking for the slightly more professional products and decided to tackle my entire network in one go. 2 unifi switches (16 ports and 8 ports (150 watt poe) and an AC-AP-PRO.
After first having a controller on my PC, I saw the advantage of a 24/24h solution.
A cloudkey brought a perfect solution here. Plug in, change IP, transfer backup from old controller and it was up and running within 30 minutes.
After the network (which is noticeably better, especially Wi-Fi) it was time for some cameras. A unifi G3 was immediately recognized and paired.
The android apps for network and video also worked from the first time and without a hitch.
A small downside is that unifi Protect (the video recorder) is a new product and is still under development. This is the successor of Unifi Video but does not yet have all the features that Video already has. However, new ones are regularly added and protect works stable in the current version. Protect will also be the successor to Video and video will only get bug fixes.
Another downside is that there are no mounting options, it is currently loose around my 19" rack switch. A rack enclosure has been announced.
A final plus is that with a free Ubiquiti account you get cloud access on your cloudkey and via the internet you can access your network and video controllers from anywhere (without having to set port forwards and the like in your router). This option is optional, the cloudkey can also be used completely offline.

This one was very easy to set up and works very quickly. Everything from ubiquiti is regularly updated. Compared to the previous version, the battery is a major advantage in the event of a power failure. As a result, the database can no longer be corrupted, which again saves time. However, it is more expensive than the previous version and that is also its biggest disadvantage. The standard 1 TB hard drive is also not particularly large, but it is easy to replace with a larger one. However, this is only necessary when using ubiquiti cameras.

The Cloudkey controller is a must-have for any UniFi network. The V2 is a lot faster than the V1 and therefore works more pleasantly. We had a 'second chance'. Perfect!
