Cisco Meraki MV Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use the cameras as part of our physical security system. It works out great when using the dashboard and reviewing footage. We have about 18-24 branches where we are slowly working towards getting them all Meraki cameras. We have over 50 cameras as of now. It is a great product and easy to use.

Likelihood to Recommend

Very easy to use.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use it to monitor the interior of data centers to make sure no unauthorized users access our MDFs. They are also useful for outside monitoring.

Likelihood to Recommend

The price is too high for the quality.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are a Cisco distributor that sells the MV cameras, I use them in demonstration purposes. A Lot of the times, we like to push these products out not just as physical security but as an endpoint that also serves as an IOT device. IT's great when we demo them to showcase how it can solve security issues such as seeing the difference between a person and a video and having a single pane of glass for mangement with the cameras on the Meraki dashboard.

Likelihood to Recommend

Having the ability to add on security cameras to your existing Meraki network and adding in IOT while you're doing this is really top notch. These cameras would be well suited for small businesses that require security footage that can be easily accessed, anywhere at anytime. For a larger organization or a company that needs more robust security, this would be less appropriate, like a Casino, this would not be suited for that type of enviroment.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Cisco Meraki MV cameras at several of our locations. They are easy to manage through the Meraki Cloud Dashboard centrally and we are able to provide granular access for staff without opening up the whole Meraki Dashboard.

Likelihood to Recommend

Well suited for a remote offices where we are able to manage, update and view footage from our central office.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Cisco Meraki MV provides clear recordings of events in every area of our building irrespective of light source, means even at night when we rely on office lights. The ease of use in browsing through time frames to find relevant even that we are after is amazingly quick. The interface is even easy to use that even our non tech staff member breeze through with minimal guidance. Highly recommended.

Likelihood to Recommend

The quality of Cisco Meraki MV is outstanding and it is reliable, we have zero fault for the last 3 years. We find this product really excel in what it does because of the quality of videos it records and irrespective of light source. The video recording adjust its settings like having an AUTO White balance and ISO adjusting to always give the best possible clear recording.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use the Cisco Meraki MV for property monitoring. The cameras are easy to operate and give us many options for administering and managing them in the dashboard. However, as the cameras are quite expensive, I would like to have better video quality for some cameras and to be able to rotate the cameras from the dashboard. An online tool for planning how many cameras of which types I need for the right deployment would be great, something where I can upload plans and use them for sizing.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Cisco Meraki smart cameras (MV range) are a very good fit for smaller sites where installing traditional IP cameras alongside an NVR is not efficient. Although the initial cost of an individual camera can seem high, when you factor in the infrastructure required for traditional setups, the Meraki MV is great value for sites with a handful of cameras. The onboard intelligence is an added bonus as it can potentially lead to faster event triggers than waiting for an NVR to process it. The hardware is robust and exceptionally easy to set up and install, with everything being done through the cloud hosted dashboard. Image quality is good and there are now cameras with increased frame rates so all requirements other than for PTZs are catered for. All in all a reliable quick to install and high quality solution.

Likelihood to Recommend

Ideal for smaller sites with 1-5 cameras, though technically it can cope with hundreds, the price/performance ratio starts to tip more in favour of traditional IP cameras and NVRs. The outdoor models have excellent infrared illumination and you can see personal features on faces at night. There are also a huge range of plugins for things like number plate recognition that are easy to integrate.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are a Cisco partner and Cisco Meraki MV is mainly used RPA product marketing and project development under managed services

Likelihood to Recommend

The deployment of new offices for our customers is more dynamic and with an almost immediate response speed due to our stock and monitoring center

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I have used Cisco Meraki MV for specific unique business case which we were not able to provide specific storage for remote cameras. Cisco Meraki MV helped with on camera storage which can sync with cloud and view any time from anywhere which was really helpful for the security footage check and online views.

Likelihood to Recommend

In my requirement, Cisco Meraki MV was best suits me due to the capability of remote deployments and easy management. Also, the online dashboard provides easy access to recordings and analytics from anywhere. Its useful for easy deployments and analytical features. But if you consider more on the local storage this may not suitable.
