Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Meraki MX

We use Cisco Meraki MX for our firewalls, switches, access points and cameras. The dashboard is awesome because it brings all into one location. Cisco Meraki MX support is great and always available. Since we have gone to all Cisco Meraki MX infrastructure, we have had better performance, security, ease of use and happy users. I'd recommend Cisco Meraki MX to all users and companies big or small

Pros

  • security
  • connectivity
  • customer support

Cons

  • faster support call backs
  • integrate umbrella into dashboard
  • support time and tickets have decreased
  • downtime has decreased significantly
I came from a background of mixed firewalls and they were clumsy, bad interfaces and hard to work with. The Cisco Meraki MX hardware is easy to manage in the dashboard with well engineered and written user interface. The Cisco Meraki MX guys must actually work in their equipment as it is laid out well
Cisco Meraki MX integrates well with other technology. We use Azure / Entra and SAML for our users. Support was great in helping out for anything I couldn't get going. Our users have noticed ease of use and seamless integration. Overall we have been very happy with our setup and will always use Cisco Meraki MX moving forward
When I first started with my company we had various infrastructure and a mix of tech. Since going to Cisco Meraki MX we have noticed better network performance and our new sites are much easier to bring online. Users have noticed an improvement in VPN connection and getting into all our systems.

the Cisco Meraki MX 's work great for us we have over 40 locations and each has it's own Cisco Meraki MX that connects to our main Cisco Meraki MX in our datacenter. Each site then connects to Meraki switches and access points. Very easy to setup and keep running smoothly. Secure and easy for users to get connected to VPN.
