Here was the bottom line if you are lazy

The Good

    Configurability, configurability, configurability
    Easy mesh configuration and scale-up, from one to lots and lots of WAPs
    Solid performance, even when roaming
    Excellent range and overall SNR/SIR, along with excellent tools to tweak 
and tune both 2.4GHz and 5GHz radio performance
    Reasonably priced considering the enterprise-level functionality
    Comprehensive logging and reporting makes data-driven admins happy

The Bad

    No support for 802.11r/k roaming (due by end of year)
    Band steering not yet enabled for updated UniFi gear
    Not as fast in benchmarks as some consumer-grade WAPs, particularly Apple's 
Airport Extreme
    Intermittent connectivity issues when operating in wireless bridge mode 
(may have just been my test set-up—impossible to really tell)
    No routing, firewall, or stateful packet inspection means these are not 
drop-in replacements for a SOHO router

The Ugly

    The best features require a computer (server or otherwise) to be constantly 
running the UniFi Controller application
