My management periodically requests the wireless team to review other vendor products to at least attempt to achieve vendor-agnostic solutions. We deploy Cisco APs exclusively because the advanced feature set offered by Cisco APs leads the industry and I cannot match those features with any other vendor. Cisco is committed to constantly pushing the envelope with wireless technology and other vendors offer cheaper alternatives, but cannot match Cisco's feature set.

The Cisco Aironet 1560 Series Access Point is very similar to the Cisco Aironet 1550 Series Access Point, but it has many differences too. The Cisco Aironet 1560 Series Access Points is made for more of an indoor use and less heavy-duty environments which leads to it being smaller and lighter. The Cisco Aironet 1550 Series Access Point is used for more of an outdoor use and heavy-duty environments which leads to it being much larger and heavier. Overall, if indoor use is required, I would recommend the 1560, but if outdoor use in hazardous and bad weather locations is required, I would recommend the 1550.

The 1570 is the beast among Cisco Models, it comes in my opinion in 1 degree less than the IW3700. I have 1550 AP's installed for 9 years and not working now, when I compare both models under the sun and humidity the 1570 running for the past 4 years looks like new.
The 1560 has fewer features and sort of plastic casing which is much cheaper, and does not do 1/4 of what 1570 does.

Making the decision to use Aironet is more related to the type of scenario that you have. We chose Aironet because we mainly manage all the network internally and already have Cisco products to integrate with Meraki which is a good option if you are starting from scratch.
