    I think for us in our deployment model where it spoke to the hub, it certainly makes ideal sense. I would probably say with anyone that's signed in Azure or a cloud platform, obviously VMX appliance may not be suited. Anyone on Old Legacy MPLS may struggle to see a purpose for SD-WAN overlay of the top. But I think if you really want to introduce network communications that are low cost effective, solid in terms of availability and performance, a Meraki sdwan solution with the VMX appliance in the cloud is ideal.

    I feel like our use case scenario is excellent for any company that would like to see more accountability from their sales or service teams. Geopointe's ability to force a Geocheckin when visiting specific Salesforce data is exactly what most companies need. The ROI for combining Salesforce and Geopointe is exponential for any business looking to grow and maintain a good customer relationship.

    Pros
    Cisco
    • It handles load really well.
    • It brings simplification to the whole piece of networking network, so it makes it simple for us to diagnose and troubleshoot issues put in place as changes.
    • It has pretty good site to site firewall control.
    • It works well in Azure, so it ticks all our boxes.

    • I like the way that we can utilize the registration and look at an area not exclusively to guarantee that our reps are at an office and working yet if something somehow managed to happen we would have a thought of where they are found.
    • It is an incredible apparatus and resource for our organization for using time effectively.
    • My number one moment was a couple of years prior when one of the top-performing salesmen considered it the best deals device he had found in his 20 years of selling.

    Cons
    Cisco
    • Client VPN: Cisco Meraki vMX in general needs to implement multiple VPN profiles/ group policies for client VPN
    • Alerts: Cisco Meraki vMX in general should be more consistent in sending alerts. We should receive alarms instantly.
    • Event logs: More in-depth event logs for all Meraki products, such as system crashes, etc.

    • I've found using shapes based on rather weighty data can take some times. Looking for ways to help you optimise in terms of speed and displaying data would be appreciated.
    • A bit more clarity on what you can and cannot do with a license. There are some functions that you get a scattering of capabilities on (assignments) which you can find that you'll need to pay more for to really unlock.

    Cisco Meraki vMX is great for small to medium businesses. It is easy to use with little out-of-the-box configuration. There is an easier learning curve on the Cisco Meraki vMX than on the SonicWall devices. We went with the Cisco Meraki vMX because we had the physical appliances already in place and the virtual appliance tied into our system seamlessly.

    By utilizing this instrument I am effectively handling my information as it upholds the CVS records and it is simple for me to import such documents as a result of the Geopointe Maps.

    Scalability
    Cisco
    This question is hard. A chain of retail or gas stations hypothetically that have simple networks in nature would flourish and scale quite well with Meraki. A chain of banks or something more complex that has more complex requirements doesn't scale very well or at least presents many caveats. Routing has always been a big setup with Meraki but I've always managed to 'get by'.

    Return on Investment
    Cisco
    • Standardizing: We can use the same "template" setup for multiple customers
    • Management: Easy to manage along with the rest of the Meraki products
    • Stability: Using Cisco Meraki vMX instead of VNGs in Azure provides better stability with auto-VPN between the Cisco Meraki vMX and other networks

    • Geopointe has provided an exponential ROI in terms of customer retention, and conversion of quotes to orders. This is a difficult metric to calculate but it is evident.
    • Geopointe has provided a substantial positive impact in terms of employee turnover in our outside sales role. Prior to using Salesforce and Geopointe our sales team in many cases was providing false data or copied data from the past. Geopointe's geo-checkin feature eliminates that. We have customized our Outside Sales Agreement to adapt the obligation of the outside sales person, to account for Salesforce and Geopointe and our new expectations.
