Or I can blame them for wasting my time and taking my money when they
clearly had nothing worth selling.

Please compare the specs and see what they can do and cannot do.
As far as how it compares with Ubnt, I've tested as some point
the unifi
video cameras and they were pretty bad as far as quality, lacking
some
basic features (IR filter). It seemed to me like a beta product that
should have never be release to the public. As I understand they
refined
it, but still, Hikvision is big, with a lot of experience in
making just
video surveillance products. Even so, our Hikvision fleet serves
us well
and I would not go with Ubnt.
There is also the issue with interoperability: Hikvision cameras are
supported on countless surveillance software and hardware (NVRs);
Hikvision NVRs are supporting countless other cameras (other
manufacturers) and even ONVIF and RTSP. That gives you the
possibility
to install a 3rd party product, in case you need it. I don't know
if you
can say that about Ubnt. Is that important? Well... if you have 1-2
cameras, probably no. When you go to larger projects, absolutely.
Access
control system that interconnect with video surveillance,
professional
analytics software, ONVIF support...
I like Ubnt as far as radios, but that's where it stops for me.

you can get for ~$200. You can get them even cheaper than that,
if you get quantity.
