I&#x27;ve been using Hostifi for a year+ I think now. If anyone is looking for a similar service, I highly recommend: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;hostifi.net" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;hostifi.net</a><p>Pricing is better IMO if you have any serious number of devices. The founder has created as an open startup (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;rchase.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;rchase.com</a>) and has been making good profit, so less concern of it going under too. No offense to OP on that, but switching to something like this can be a bunch of time personally, so want a clear path for startup.<p>Finally, and this is an personal story I know. But the support on Hostifi is fantastic. They have a knowledge base and their team is more than happy to help when issues come up. Which is great because I love the software, but am not a personal expert.

Question, since a number of folks have chimed in about using various cloud hosted controllers: how do you initially setup the network (given that you presumably need the router to have internet access to connect to the cloud controller), and how do you handle it if there&#x27;s an internet connectivity problem? My office currently has an internal network VM that runs the controller, and we might move to a Cloud Key, but I&#x27;m curious how folks handle having a cloud controller for their Unifi router when their Unifi router might lose internet. Or are most folks using the controllers to manage Ubiquiti wifi hotspots without using the USG as their main router?<p>We&#x27;re a small shop of around 20 desktops or so, 2 switches, and 1 router, with a couple external static IPs. I can see the benefit for trying to orchestrate multiple sites using a cloud controller, but I&#x27;d be worried about doing it for a single site given internet issues, unless there&#x27;s something I&#x27;m missing.

I have a cloud key on each site, and use the unifi cloud controller. No VPNs, no problems. Actually surprised anyone does anything else!

How is this different from or any better than Ubiquiti&#x27;s Cloud Controller hosting?<p>Also based on your pricing it is cheaper to buy a Cloud Key if you plan to use your devices longer than 10 months.

L3 hosting and UniFi is now unfortunately just one of the many, many areas where it feels like Ubiquiti just kind of quit on it many years ago. It&#x27;s really unfortunate but I&#x27;ve really gotten that sinking feeling about the platform for the last year or two now, with their killing of the forums and no replacement&#x2F;upgrade for the bug&#x2F;feature tracking part being the final straw. But overall they seem to show a lot of the classic signs of basic internal dysfunction, tons of effort expended on surface gloss and re-skinning things over and over again (yet then failing to even quickly bring feature parity up), lots of basic features and even merely keeping internal components up to date disregarded, ever increasing technical debt in the hardware line due to failure to update and replace now ancient kit (which instead they still sell new at full price). Something is going to <i>have</i> to give at some point. Unfortunately I don&#x27;t see anything else in the same position either. It&#x27;s such a depressing waste of potential.

Nobody who has 5 devices will pay $10&#x2F;mo for this; they are all doing what I am: booting the controller on-demand (or some other local solution). Less than $10pa would seem appropriate (and I&#x27;d snap that up in a heartbeat).

Hi, would you make this also as a downloadable and on-premise version to run on my own homelab? That would be cool!

This seems like a weird product, considering its just a single-use VPS. If you&#x27;re using a DC with NPS (or not, just plain ol PSK) in the sky, your ubiquiti controller just goes on there anyway.<p>Some clients just allow access via site-to-site vpns. Seems like a better solution than paying for a VPS to host free software

I&#x27;ve been running my controller on a raspberry pi for a few years without any issues

This is a great passive income type of business.<p>Here&#x27;s a nearly identical version that a number of folks use: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;hostifi.net&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;hostifi.net&#x2F;</a>
