Hi all, my Unifi Doorbell just died after only 4 years of service. I’ve been pretty disheartened with them lately, other products haven’t lived up to the company’s promise.
So I’m not looking to replace my networking stack yet, but I am looking for a doorbell camera. I only have the Unifi machine, but I also have an extensive docker/kubernetes stack, and mostly I want to use it with Home Assistant.
Any recommendations? Open to software, hardware, you name it. I have a few other Unifi cameras too, if they could be brought into the fold while I slowly migrate, I’d be interested. Thanks!


I’ve got the OG UDM trash can as well. It’s been doing the thing just fine since 2020.
Moved to a bigger place a few years ago and recently added a Wifi 7 AP to resolve poor wifi coverage in certain areas. Works great, no complaints. Probably gonna get another Wifi 7 AP so I can just shut off the radio in the router itself, ease the load a bit.
