Starting Over. Ubiquity or Omada or...? (alien.top)

I am starting over and building out a kind of Christmas list here. I was thinking of moving to Ubiquity, but now I'm leaning toward Omada. This is for home use where I mostly want better support for VLANs as I do a lot of IoT/Home Assistant stuff.

Is Omada a good way to go?

For budget I'd +1 Omada. If you have the extra money go Unifi. I have Omada at home and use Unifi for work, Unifi gives you a nice clean interface to work with and is pretty easy to configure, but you pay the premium.

Omada has a lot of the same functionality of the Unifi stuff but you have to wrestle with the initial setup a bit more, and it's not as intuitive.

After initial setup however, I have the Omada controller running in a docker container on a Libre PC (Raspberry Pi clone) alongside WireGuard and PiHole, with an indoor WiFi 6 and outdoor EAP225 unit and it all runs like a top, no issues.
