Meraki MR
The Cisco Meraki line of products is an excellent option for anyone who is looking for an easy to use line of Switches, Routers, Wireless Accesspoints, Cloud security and beyond. Not only will you find the Cisco Meraki console easy to use, but the hardware is top notch quality and comes with all the bells and whistles that you might expect from an enterprise level of service such as Cisco.

As it provides virtual WLC functionality, it has incredibly amazing built-in features that perfectly suit small to medium companies. It has the capability to manage the entire organization network seamlessly. It might be possible that it won't work smoothly and elegantly for large firms where there is a bulk amount of data bandwidth used.

Cons
Meraki MR
- There needs to be an easier way to see which devices are being heavier used, so as to determine needed adjustments.
- It would be good to have more in-depth access to what locations connected devices are navigating to.
- Cost. These devices could be a little more competitive if the cost were lower. Meraki prices itself out of some sales.

Cause its intuitive, very clear and easy of use (no brainer) interface. It's whole portfolio in one portal aproach.

Also cause the fastest deployment available on the market that also comes with a easy to scale platform adding features and services in the same interface thats unique and awesome.

The Cisco Meraki MR web interface is best in class when it comes to network management. While some networking knowledge is needed to understand what you are doing, no specialized training in any one specific operating system is required to design a whole network.

After initial configuration and fixing minor issues with the firmware, the system worked really well, without any downtime. We were also satisfied with the throughput and range.

Meraki support is usually top notch. The are quick to respond and stick with an issue until it is resolved. One of the difficulties I've had with Meraki MRs is the limited ability the customer has in troubleshooting. Much of the more technical aspects of resolution can only be accessed by the Meraki support team, meaning dedicated IT teams are reliant on them when more complicated issues arise.

Cisco Meraki Stacks give us the ability to implement an entire network and security solution that impacts tremendously in the productivity of our employees, just because we have 1 Dashboard to manage an entire company network and security with ML include an easy-to-use web view.

Cisco Mobility Express is far better than other products. It is a renowned brand in network products, and they are reliable and efficient as compared to other products that I have used so far. It is highly recommended.

Return on Investment
Meraki MR
- For bigger organizations ROI is really good, because the network is always operational, and no time is spent fixing the network.
- The users do not need to power cycle devices or do anything else, everything can be managed remotely from the Meraki dashboard.
- For small businesses with only 1 AP, the ROI is not that great since a cheaper AP can do the same job, and it may need occasional reboot which the staff can do easily without any hassle.

Cisco Mobility Express
- It has given our IT team time back from not having to fix issues everyday with the network.
- It makes it easy for visibility of the network and allows those who are new to it to learn it quickly.
