For how long have I used the solution? We have been using the solution since 2015, and we began taking from Cisco in 2016. What do I think about the stability of the solution? The devices are reliable, and there is no indication of issues so far. If something happens to the device or hardware, Cisco will automatically change the device by the next business day. How are customer service and support? Customer service and support are effective. If the devices are licensed, the support team will assist you depending on the severity level of the case. How would you rate customer service and support? Neutral What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing? Pricing is affordable, and licenses for the cloud need to be purchased every three to five years. What other advice do I have? We are recommending all of the features available in Meraki MS Switches. I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use? Other Disclaimer: My company has a business relationship with this vendor other than being a customer:partner What is our primary use case?

Reliable firewalling solution that's easy to install and configure

What is our primary use case? We used Meraki Switches primarily for firewalling. How has it helped my organization? They help us provide reliable solutions to other customers as system integrators. What is most valuable? The reliability and ease of configuration are good. I very seldom receive complaints about the switches. What needs improvement? The GUI can be improved for a better comfort level. For how long have I used the solution? We have been using Meraki Switches for more than seven or eight years. What do I think about the stability of the solution? The product has always catered to the specifications, and we haven't had any complaints about it. What do I think about the scalability of the solution? Scalability is not a problem. We have it on-premises, and it is easy to scale. How are customer service and support?

Simplified our management process and has the ability to manage all of the logs from the dashboard

What is our primary use case? We have multiple sites across India with over thirty-five test plants in our network. The device management tools and logs are very user-friendly, making it easy to manage our network. It has simplified our management process. What is most valuable? With the license, you can manage and track all logs from the dashboard, making monitoring very easy. What needs improvement? We prefer Meeraki to be installed only on a local network rather than in a cloud-managed network. Meraki MS Switches are one of our largest categories, with over thirty-five deployed. However, the switches sometimes go offline, preventing us from effectively managing our networks. This issue arises because Meraki switches rely heavily on cloud connectivity. Given our need for reliable local network management, it would be beneficial if Meraki could launch an on-premises software solution. This would make it easier to manage the local network independently of cloud connectivity, especially when the cloud connection is down. For how long have I used the solution? I have been using Meraki MS Switches for three years. What do I think about the stability of the solution? Meraki is very stable, with approximately 95-98% uptime. There are some occasional port fluctuations. Sometimes, simply replugging or transferring the connection to another port resolves the issue. There have been instances where a restart was necessary. What do I think about the scalability of the solution? We are managing over 35 devices. The solution is scalable. How are customer service and support? The technical support requires improvement. We have observed network loops at several sites, which we manage remotely. We sought technical support during these incidents, but communication was very challenging. Therefore, from a support standpoint, improvements are necessary. Having local support personnel who can better manage such situations would be beneficial. How would you rate customer service and support? Neutral Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch? When comparing Meraki MS Switches with our current Catalyst switches, we find that using Catalyst switches managed through a controller is highly beneficial. Installing the controller to manage all switches is straightforward and ensures efficient management. The Catalyst switches are known for their stability and longevity, with many features still operational five to six years after installation. Regarding stability, Catalyst switches offer 99% reliability, compared to 92-98 percent for Meraki switches. Additionally, Catalyst switches have proven to be more robust against resource and performance fluctuations than Meraki. How was the initial setup? The initial setup is easy. It typically takes two to three hours, and we have a single engineer for it. What was our ROI? Meraki MS Switches are highly beneficial. They significantly reduce troubleshooting time and enhance network stability. Features such as automatic loop negotiation and intuitive configuration options have saved our engineers considerable time. One engineer can manage over 35 users. What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing? The licensing for Meraki MS Switches is good and reasonably priced. While the cost is slightly higher, approximately 5 to 10 percent more than some competitors due to market conditions, it remains an excellent value given the benefits. This slight premium is justified by the comprehensive features and support plans offered. What other advice do I have? The security features of Meraki MS Switches are excellent. They include advanced capabilities such as built-in security measures and the ability to manage all features through the Meraki cloud dashboard, making configuration straightforward. Key features include port blocking and traffic management, allowing detailed control over network traffic. Additionally, Meraki MS Switches offer built-in firewall functionalities within the dashboard, enhancing the overall security level. I highly recommend the Meraki MS switches to manage multiple local call center locations. Meraki is an excellent solution because of its enabled dashboard and the ability to manage it with a license from anywhere. However, one drawback is that it can only be managed with Ethernet. This limitation is quite specific to these switches. Otherwise, Meraki is a reliable solution for managing other remote setups. We are considering Meraki MS Switches, their capabilities, and how they align with our expansion plans. We may need features like CI integration or related functionalities. Understanding the AI tools available with Meraki and identifying those applicable to our site requirements is crucial. First, we must comprehend the tools' capabilities and where they can be effectively deployed. These are key considerations that require clarity from Cisco. Overall, I rate the solution an eight-point five out of ten. Disclaimer: I am a real user, and this review is based on my own experience and opinions. What is our primary use case? We have multiple sites across India with over thirty-five test plants in our network. The device management tools and logs are very user-friendly, making it easy to manage our network.

Graphical user interface (GUI) is the best part and offers compatibility with various firewalls and filtering capabilities

What is our primary use case? We connect all workstations, CCTV, and biometric devices. We're using VLANs in Meraki, which is very easy for us. We can access it from anywhere since we are using Meraki in the cloud. How has it helped my organization? Meraki MS switches support the network management tasks. It is connected to our Cisco Nexus core switch. The connection goes from the server to the Nexus, then to Meraki, and then to the end-users. What is most valuable? Changing VLANs is much easier in Meraki compared to other switches using the GUI. The GUI is the best part of Meraki. It's very easy to access. Meraki does support CLI, but the GUI is purely GUI, which is very easy to access. The security features, compatibility with other firewalls, and filtering capabilities in the MS switches have been the most beneficial for our network. What needs improvement? Tracking native ports with IP addresses is not currently possible in Meraki. I can track by hostname, but not IP address. I have requested this feature from Cisco, and they are working on it. So, this is an area of improvement. I would like to be able to use it on the local network. Currently, if there is no internet, I cannot use Meraki because it only works through the online portal. I would like to access the switches locally, even if the internet is down. Thie needs to be changed. For how long have I used the solution? I have been using it for two years. I work with the current update. What do I think about the stability of the solution? I would rate the stability an eight out of ten. There are no challenges with the stability. What do I think about the scalability of the solution? We can extend the switches to the server room. We currently have four to six switches. If we want to add more switches, we can stack them onto existing ones, effectively combining them into a single switch. I would rate the scalability a ten out of ten. Currently, we have 192 endpoints (48 X 4 ports) connected to our four switches, but we have 240 users. We will replicate the four more switches. We have already planned and procured four more switches, which need to be implemented. We are in the process of increasing usage. How are customer service and support? The technical support needs to be improved. When we had some issues, they asked for the tag. Since Meraki is new to them, there aren't many experienced Cisco engineers who handle Meraki. There is room for improvement here. How would you rate customer service and support? Neutral Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch? I used Aruba. My company decided to switch to Meraki. Otherwise, I didn't had any issue Aruba. It was a corporate decision. How was the initial setup? I would rate my experience with the initial setup a ten out of ten, with ten being easy to setup. Deployment time: Everything was smooth. The deployment model is on the cloud. It is Meraki dashboard. Its own portal. Deployment process: It took just half an hour to deploy. We connect to the network and obtain an IP. The switch is added into the portal using the license. Once that's done, we can access the switch in the portal and configure everything there. What about the implementation team? It is self-deployed. No maintenance is requried for Meraki MS switches. What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing? The pricing is very expensive. I would rate it a ten out of ten, with ten being expensive. The total cost for the switches, including future usage, is around 35 lakhs. What other advice do I have? Overall, I would rate the solution an eight out of ten. I would recommend other users who have a good internet connection who are considering implementing Meraki MS Switches. Which deployment model are you using for this solution? Public Cloud Disclaimer: I am a real user, and this review is based on my own experience and opinions.customer What is our primary use case? We connect all workstations, CCTV, and biometric devices. We're using VLANs in Meraki, which is very easy for us. We can access it from anywhere since we are using Meraki in the cloud. How has it helped my organization?
