Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Meraki SD-WAN

We implemented the Cisco Meraki SD-WAN model after a decision to change the entire back-end of our LAN and our WAN was moved to an offsite location. These events happened due to a tornado destroying our campus server room and over half of our network infrastructure was taken out of service. The insight provided and the simple deployment of all the equipment was what made us go with Cisco Meraki SD-WAN.
  • Ease of deployment of switches, WAP's, and any other Network equipment
  • The Dashboard is a great insight of your network
  • Love how you can see the connection of the clients and get particulars
  • I wish that the dashboard would have an instant update feature
  • The guest WiFi accounts could be self deleting at a set interval
  • Most everything else is great

  • Small IT staff ease of use
  • Hard cost up front are smaller
  • License cost over time could become an issue
Greatly, due to a two person staff and very limited knowledge of the back-end network environment and all of its settings and such. We setup the desired config on one device and Cisco Meraki SD-WAN took over for all the other items.
Very robust network for a small independent k-12 school. Product just works and my end users never complain about slow internet or network resources.
Does what it says it does
The ease of setup and deployment do to the SD-WAN capabilities make Cisco Meraki SD-WAN well suited for an Enterprise small environment. I can see it being to "open" for a larger Enterprise.
