I've been using PFSense for years, and it's been pretty great, but I also have some friends who are homelabbers that like their Unifi setups.

What do you guys prefer, and why?

Ruckus APs and Opnsense have been solidly reliable for me for 5y now. No random fucking with unifi bugs (like having my WPA enterprise SSID punting users out onto the management vlan at random instead of the Kerberos assigned VLAN for that user, thanks unifi) and fantastic wireless coverage has me completely satisfied with my infra choices. Also, Ruckus unleashed handles controller duty on the primary AP rather than requiring a management container, that's also a plus.
