    Cisco Meraki Go is well suited for small or large organizations that want to centralize their network management. We have half a dozen offices spread over two states. I can manage all of my networks through a single pane of glass. The only time Cisco Meraki Go isn't super appropriate is when larger organizations may want to use a more granular security approach or set up VPNs with non-Meraki hardware.

    Doodle is great when you need to coordinate dates among a group and don't want to send a bunch of group emails or texts. It allows a number of dates to be proposed and the group can easily see those dates that are most preferred. If you need to do something more complex than that it may not be your tool.

    Pros
    Cisco
    • Cheap and fast hotspot supporting multiple simultaneous clients.
    • Guest control through a Captive portal.
    • They work with the 802.11ac Wave 2 protocol.
    • They direct the WiFi signal directly to the client that is accessing the internet and increase the quality of the signal.
    • Managed in the cloud and accessed via the web

    • Doodle allows you to view multiple meeting times simultaneously. I may never have 100% of my team available, but I can see that I have three other options with 90% availability.
    • Doodle is a free resource that doesn't require users to create an account or exist in a network. I simply send the link and see the responses.
    • Doodle notifies you as people respond, making the scheduling process quick and easy. Also, you can confirm a time through the software!

    Cons
    Cisco
    • One thing I would add is that sometimes the app has downtime or works particularly slowly on the weekends. Why that is, I'm not sure, maybe because I have an older iPhone.

    • I wish that it offered more options in backgrounds, characters and props without having an additional cost, but that is to be expected.
    • I would like an easier way to add my own fonts, characters , props etc, because I am a new learner this may not be an issue as I get more familiar with the software.
    • I don't like all the sales emails I received trying to upgrade or add to my purchase.

    It's just as easy to use as Meraki but a perfect fit for home and SMB. It's a no-brainer.

    Support Rating
    Cisco
    It's good, it can be better, but it's good. We had problems with Outlook 365 disconnecting and their support wasn't able to help us. We spent a few hours on the phone and finally, one of our NOC guys decided to change the MTU. I'm sure their support is good, I just think that this time we didn't find the right person.

    Doodle has customer service support available as needed, but honestly, it is so easy to use that I have rarely had to seek support. They are always a click away and responsive to resolving any need or to clarify the next best step to using Doodle to meet my needs.

    Cisco Meraki Go is very fast and offers high productivity than other solutions available in the market. It offers a wide range of features in a very affordable pricing model which is quite a competition for all the alternatives out there. Since we have offices in remote as well, that's why we went with Meraki Go as it can be easily moved from one location to another.

    For the same reasons noted previously, Doodle allows for the organizer to ultimately select/accept the time that works for them. Many competitors only allow you to show available times and the appointment goes directly into the organizer's calendar. I typically prefer to have a bit more control over that. Also, visually Doodle is more intuitive in how you schedule appointments than Calendly. I think Calendly tries to get a bit too cute with their interface instead of sticking to a more standard, familiar calendar interface when setting an appointment.

    The ease of deployment can be moved from one site to another easily. There is no need for any source or managing controller and hence it can be easily moved with the same configuration. This type of solution is best for teams who work together and are on the move from one location to another and who rely on high performance and good security for their wifi network.

    Return on Investment
    Cisco
    • Meraki has improved our business and our sales by a lot.
    • Customers are always happy to enter our brewery and have a drink, even more, when their internet works to near perfection.
    • I even catch myself watching an episode or two on netflix during my lunch break, considering the internet can support my 4k streaming.

    • Improved efficiency by avoiding the slow and inefficient process of emailing back and forth to set meeting dates and times.
    • Allows for more informed decisions regarding meetings or making decisions, as all options can be laid out visually in a way that isn't possible in an email.
