Many companies don't have enough IT staff to administrate all the mobile devices which are laptops, desktops, phones. Using Cisco Meraki SM, administrators can create common policy set and deploy all changes at once easily. Also since the user interface is very understandable, administrators can understand the flow and execute by reducing learning curve.
Since Cisco Meraki SM using the same dashboard, administrators can track devices and deploy mobile policies easily within a small deployment time. Also, due to the dashboard showing all device details, detecting and controlling devices in corporate environment is more centralized and controllable. This gives full visibility of the corporate environment and helps to troubleshoot too.
Cisco Meraki SM gives more into enterprise networks via its scalability. Due to this being cloud managed, all systems are more scalable with additional licenses for number of devices. In that situation, company only purchase system manager license and no need to worry about underlayer hardware resources for the controller.
Ivanti Endpoint is also a good product, but due to the control plane is more in to on-prem at evaluation time, we were limited with resource constrains and difficult to implement in scalable manner. Also required granular deployment configurations. In Cisco Meraki SM, those two points were eliminated and easy to deploy and scale.
