  • Cloud backups of configuration
  • Ease of assigning management to others
Easy to assign administrator privileges
Easy to configure for lessor experienced engineers
Similarly to the switches configuration requires little knowledge and assistance
Easy to configure site-to-site tunnels
Switches have functionality that can address 90% of network requirements is is still limited. I'm sure these features will be added at a later date.
Meraki MS does not have the full feature set of Catalyst switches, however, the ease of deployment and implementation in less stringent environments makes them a great option
Microsoft Office 2016 (discontinued)
Ease of management for those less versed with regular CLI configurations.
