Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Meraki MX

The Cisco Meraki MX is currently being used as a security appliance across the whole organization. I am using this device to primarily manage the quality of service on the network to ensure a good experience for all users. The secondary use of the device is to ensure that traffic is secure and users are protected from external threats.
  • The dashboard
  • Excellent support
  • Simplicity of deployment
  • Quality of experience
  • Quicker failover of WAN interfaces when a link fails.
  • Higher firewall throughput.
  • High upfront cost.
  • Great support throughout the term.
The simplicity of the tool greatly reduces the time spent on administering the firewall so that they can focus more on value-add projects rather than maintenance. Very happy with the simplicity
Everything fits nicely into the same ecosystem. One pane of glass to manage everything. Seamless.
It is extremely easy to scale this solution, adding more MR or MS devices to the ecosystem.
The Meraki may have slightly fewer features, but it does have all the core features and executes them with flying colors.
I feel like it is an all-around good box and it fills the need of an enterprise grade solution without the deployment complexity that usually comes with an enterprise grade solution.
