Those were more hard to deploy and the management not that intuitive as Meraki is. Maybe those devices are able to perform more things but my guess is that the simplicity in some case is the best approach, it's not always required having the full portfolio of functionalities, …

Create points are more manual to configure however they are highly configurable a lot more specific settings that can be done.

The only other cellular provider that we've evaluated was, I think it was called Sky Link, and it was a little USB module that plugged into the Meraki MXs and we had nothing but problems with it, which is why we ended up switching to the MG 20 ones.

Before the Cisco Meraki MG, Vodafone GigaCubes were used. They are also great devices but don't integrate into the Meraki dashboard.

We checked many vendors. ALU was a primary contender. However, their acccess points are not primarily designed for cellular use case. Cellular is just an additional feature on their fully loaded APs. The fact that MEraki MG is suited for this particular use case was a major …

Cisco Meraki MG is the first product in this domain that I have used. So may not be able to draw a comparison with competitors. However whatever I have experienced till now has been very good. I can say that it is worth it's value.

Although both products come from the same family, there are drastic differences between them. When it comes to the MX, it's all about security. It might not perform like the latter, but the security it provides is really good. It is a good enterprise WAN Solution, but still, …

Both products are similar to each other, they both are flexible and have the ability to expand and downgrade. Cisco Meraki Management seems to be a more secure product, but it comes with a higher price tag. Cisco Meraki management portal seems to have more integrations with …

It is perfect for WAN redundant connectivity when Cellular 5G is available; It solve temporary issues on delays with delivery of ISP connectivity. It plays a great role in SD-WAN environments due to the overall flexibility in combination with MXs and the wan selection based on the state of the art condition of the connectivity. It fits less in those scenario where there are multiple spots with iot devices requiring internet connectivity due to the cost, in that case it could be hard the ROI.

It's fantastic for being in the Meraki dashboard and actually looking at quality of signal. I can look at up times, down times, ease of use when it comes to if I would have to reboot the MG 21E in case it does have a problem.
Overall reliability: since we switched to the MG 21 E, we've rarely have a problem with it when it comes to the cellular performance going down.

From a user aspect, to just a provider of the internet source for myself, they're very easy to set up. I don't have any real complaints over it. We use T-Mobile as our cellular provider, so there is some limitations on the signal strength and coverage. We could use AT&T, but the integration between the Meraki T system and our preexisting corporate AT&T account, there seems to be no integrations there. So that's where I would say the limitations are. I would prefer that the AT&T onboarding allows us to connect to our corporate AT&T wireless account.

In terms of scalability, The MG Meraki is unvanquished! As it works on cellular signals, as long as you have the required signal strength, you are connected. Removes the dependency on cables to connect to our ISP. So geographical locations do not affect the scalability of MG. Which is the whole point of having a Cellular to Wired Ethernet Device. And it can also be managed with the web centrally.
