Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Meraki Wireless Access Point

Cisco Meraki is the best option when I need analytics of my network, sometimes is useful to use all info that you can see in the dashboard. Use cases for example is when you have to implement too many apps in many places, shops, offices, retail, etc. Also, you can configure Meraki wireless in any place.
  • Remote work
  • Hybrid work
  • Network security (can integrate to Umbrella)
  • Cheaper.
  • Integrate to another technology.
  • More APIs to use it.
  • To separate organization and networks, could be add all in the same panel.
  • license "co-term", is better "per devices"
  • Analytics and integration with umbrella
  • APIS
  • Positive segment network
  • Positive easy to configure
  • Negative, only Meraki can configure
If you compare a solution of enterprise networking (Cisco Aironet) and Meraki, Meraki is the best option if you don't have experience of configure apps, because Meraki is easier, cheaper, and only needs the license to use it. For example, if you buy Cisco Aironet, you need WLC and AP, and Meraki only needs the devices and license, and you can grow up your network up to 10k devices and more!

Would you buy Cisco Meraki Wireless Access Point again?

It could be that the Meraki dashboard can be integrated with other brands, since if you install Meraki wireless, the dashboard configuration can only see Meraki equipment and if you have equipment from other brands it is more complicated when implementing. The best option is when you have full stack (MR, MR, APS, SYSTEM MANAGER) because you can configure all networks in dashboard (but all must be Meraki).
