Would you buy Cisco Meraki MX again?

  • It is an affordable solution that replace our expensive MPLS
The simplicity of Cisco Meraki MX has allowed my small IT staff, four members, self manage our SDWAN.
We have not run into any issues.
It has a very similar look and feel.
The Cisco Meraki MX devices have worked well in smaller remote office locations. I have used Cisco FTD firewalls in our main data center for firewalling functions instead of the Cisco Meraki MX.
