Great solution for our business
Reviewed on 2024/01/24
Pros
Cloud config is obviously huge. Being able to have a site set up and ready to go in the cloud before anything is plugged in make acquisitions and new stores so easy to stand up. Most new features are software based so it's only getting better.
Cons
Pricing could be easier to understand. There are some features that a more advanced network might need but it works great for us. It definitely should have better monitoring built in.

It's a powerful and flexible networking solution for businesses of all sizes. Its ease of use and scalability make it an attractive option for many users
Pros
One of the main advantages of Cisco Meraki is its ease of use. The platform offers a simple and intuitive interface that makes it easy for businesses to manage their network devices, even if they don't have extensive technical expertise. This can be especially beneficial for small and medium-sized businesses that may not have dedicated IT staff.
Cons
the cost of the devices and subscriptions, which can be relatively high compared to other networking solutions. This may make it less suitable for small businesses or those with limited budgets.Another potential issue is the reliance on cloud-based management. While the cloud-based management can be convenient, it also means that businesses need a reliable internet connection to manage their devices. This can be a challenge in areas with poor connectivity or when there are network disruptions.

In the Meraki Ecosystem, I have extensive experience working with MX Firewalls, MS Switches, and MR Access Points. These products boast ease of deployment and management, featuring user-friendly interfaces. However, it's worth noting that in the MX Firewalls, certain features such as NAT(Static and Dynamic) and Link Aggregation are lacking. This limitation has posed challenges for me in network design and deployment scenarios.
Pros
I appreciated the ease of deployment and management of Meraki Products, user monitoring, and user-friendly interfaces.
Cons
Some features such as NAT(Static and Dynamic) and Link Aggregation are lacking in Meraki MX Firewalls. This limitation has posed challenges for me in network design and deployment scenarios.
