Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Meraki MR

We deploy them to all of our locations throughout Las Vegas, well throughout the whole Nevada, but I work specifically in Southern Nevada, so deploying them and we're replacing older Cisco Switches, 3850s, stuff like that with the new Cisco Meraki because of the cloud-based and stuff like that that we like about it.

Pros

  • The cloud part where you can manage them through that. Absolutely love it. You don't have to know the code behind doing a 3850 or anything of that case like that, where you have to go in into a putty session and you got to know all the codes and stuff like that. This is just so click and it's gooey based and awesome.

Cons

  • It's a possibility, but I don't know because we haven't gone down that road yet for our division, but incorporating the older Cisco equipment into the Cisco Meraki Cloud and stuff, I know that I was told that we could do that. We haven't done it yet. I just don't know what products it can be done with. That would be cool. It makes it obviously much easier to manage too.
It's great because you can just set the template and then you just drop in your products in there and it just configures all the products at once, so it's great.
Other products that we have is obviously older Cisco appliances, and then we have Cisco Meraki AP's and a lot of Cisco Meraki Switches that we're getting now.
As far as I know, it's 10. I mean, because like I said, I manage stuff in the south. I have coworkers that manage it in the north. And so the scalability of it to be able to be go in and see the configurations of the ones in the north as well as they can see in the south. So across the board, it works really well for how widespread out it is.
