Ubiquiti success story: From a pioneering project to more than 138 sites, many with immediate redundancy and SLAs
How DataRoad introduced Ubiquiti in Portugal and turned it into a reference solution for business networks.
The challenge
Companies needed reliable, scalable, and easy-to-manage networks without the complexity and cost of traditional solutions. Networks of different brands configured in different ways made maintenance slow and fault detection difficult.
The solution
The CEO of DataRoad brought Ubiquiti from the United States to Portugal for a local project. From there, DataRoad began designing, installing and configuring unified networks: Wi-Fi, switching, routing and video surveillance on a single platform, with redundancy at critical points and centralized management.
The same solution in all companies: a unified, redundant network managed by the person who installed it.
The result
- More than 138 sites, many of them redundant, are in operation.
- More than 980 managed devices installed and managed.
- A single platform per client, with consistent configuration and monitoring.
- Continuous management by the same team that designed and installed the network.
The CEO's experience behind the project
When he brought Ubiquiti to Portugal, the CEO of DataRoad already had extensive experience in network and server projects. He worked in the technical management of a multinational security company in Portugal and at HP Portugal, and participated in projects such as the construction of marketplaces and in groups such as CUF and Sonae, working with companies such as SAP and Microsoft.
He also has experience in integrating IT solutions, having worked for two IT distributors in Portugal that represented some of the world's largest brands, and holds various technical certifications from different manufacturers. It is this background that gives DataRoad the criteria to choose, integrate, and support the right technology in each company.
Passion for what we do
At DataRoad, technology is not just a job: it’s a passion. We genuinely enjoy designing, installing, and making networks work that companies forget exist because they simply don’t fail. This dedication is evident in every project, from the initial coverage study to daily management, and it’s what makes us deliver well-made IT every day.
Internationally recognized by the manufacturer
DataRoad has published successful cases internationally by Ubiquiti, which serve as a reference for solutions implemented in clients in Portugal. This is the manufacturer’s recognition of the work carried out project by project over the years.
The same solutions in all companies
DataRoad uses the same solutions across all its customers, unifying and supporting each network on the same technical basis. This consistency, built through years of experience and know-how, makes DataRoad a high-level choice for companies that want a stable, predictable, and easy-to-manage network.
