Cisco Meraki MX Still At The Top!
- Cisco Meraki was a great upgrade from old networking equipment that delivered a lot more features at a roughly cheaper cost.

- We can carry out disaster recovery protocols much easier as we can upload backed-up configurations for our switches and firewalls allowing us less downtime by not having to configure switches.

Meraki - a super stable yet expensive cloud platform
- For retail, Cisco Meraki MX helps keep us PCI compliant, so we save a bunch on the compliance fees we don't have to pay
- Cisco Meraki MX also saves us on endpoint costs - we are able to use the Microsoft 365 Premium subscription which includes Windows Defender - instead of a high-priced solution because the edge is so well protected.
- The greatest negative impact is the license fees - they are expensive!
