Another thing to consider is how you feel about the configuration. Mikrotik has a more polished GUI and command subset. UBNT is still working things out. A lot of what you have to to do with the UBNT line has to still be done in command line. If you are cool with that then not a big

Personally I have a simple matrix for routing and switching, if the customer can afford it I use Juniper, if they can afford it and really want Cisco then I will use Cisco. If the customer wants to put something in that will just work for years to come I use Juniper. If they want the cheapest

I ported one of our Juniper SRX configs to an EdgeRouter Lite and it was a relatively painless experience. I benchmarked the end results and it would do ~1gbps without breaking much of a sweat. Not bad at all for a $100 box. We keep some on the shelf, just in case of an emergency. At that price,

EdgeRouter only support hardware accelerated routing with limited features. If you start playing with firewall filters, gre tunnels etc you would have to be careful about how they decrease your performance. I personally tried to use a edgerouter to replace my j2350 with 300mbps traffic. I first
