Cisco Meraki vMX vs. Proton VPN

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.

ProtonVPN is 100% suited while we are concerned about our privacy and speed while using a VPN. But if you want a great ping and want to stream games or do online multiplayer gaming, it is not so much suited because of the crown on all of its servers and their high pings.

• Works well with physical Meraki MX devices
• Site-to-Site VPNs are easy to set up with other Meraki devices
• Cisco Meraki vMX provides a great solution for a virtual environment, like Azure

Incentivized

• it maintains a great speed and stability
• has a free plan for the basic, privacy concerned user
• some of its server also supports p2p file sharing
• their absulute no-logs policy
• easy to use interface

• 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.

Incentivized

• increasing the number of virtual locations
• making the pricing more competitive
• allowing users to enjoy gaming on a Low Ping on all of its servers
• adding more servers on the virtual locations like USA and Netherlands

The VMware SD wan does give some better WAN metrics, but the interface is super clunky and doesn’t support a full stack. If Meraki could give some more QoE link metrics, it would be perfect.

Proton VPN allows free users to enjoy and protect their privacy on the internet without compromising safety and security. they have a no-logs policy and they do not store the data of users. Thus they stand out from most of the VPNs out there. Also, the proton VPN has great speed on its free servers which are not offered by any other VPN I have seen so far. that's definitely a plus point.

We have over 350 locations and growing. We chose Cisco Meraki vMX because of ease of use and how it scales.

• Some users it knocks down on maintenance labor/cost
• Negative would be if you didn't really vet the feature set to the customers needs and end up having to replace it short notice.

Incentivized

• helping us to enrich our researches
• saving a lot of time while finding articles or information from restricted sites
• increasing the ROI because of the great articles published by the great researches conducted with the help of ProtonVPN
