| Managing Director at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees | 5.0 | I've used Meraki Dashboard since 2019 for managing access points, firewalls, and load balancing, appreciating its centralized visibility and cloud management, though AI capabilities and scalability need improvement. I rate it 10 out of 10. |
| L3 Techical Support Engineer at IT Solutions Consulting | 4.0 | I've used Meraki Dashboard for a year and appreciate its centralized device management, ease of firmware updates, and alert features. While it's user-friendly, I’d like better endpoint security options and improvements in upgrade reliability. |
| Network Technology Project Manager at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees | 4.5 | I've used Meraki Dashboard for 10 years to manage Wi-Fi and switches; it offers strong monitoring and alerting features, though security concerns like required port 80 persist. Setup is simple, support is excellent, and scalability is high. |
| IT Manager at Fawaz | 5.0 | Our brand partner in Saudi Arabia uses Meraki Dashboard for connectivity, emphasizing VIP solutions and ease of access. Although we don't use all features, Meraki supports most of our devices. Initially, few companies here adopted Cisco, including us in retail. |
| Senior Assistant Director Information Technology at a non-tech company with 10,001+ employees | 3.5 | We use Meraki Dashboard for managing our network infrastructure, integrating it with Cisco products. It excels in centralized management and reporting, but is costly in developing regions and needs support for more Cisco devices. We previously used Sophos XGS. |
| CTO at a tech services company with 11-50 employees | 4.0 | We use Meraki Dashboard for managing our network, providing valuable insights and visibility into usage and issues. While beneficial as a single pane of glass, its complexity can be challenging compared to simpler options like Juniper Mist. |
| Senior Network Engineer at a healthcare company with 10,001+ employees | 4.0 | I find the Meraki Dashboard intuitive, especially compared to traditional methods. The cloud dashboard's ease of access is its most valuable aspect. However, adding firewall rules is overly simplistic. While I've used Meraki and Aruba, Meraki's pricing is advantageous. |
| Senior Infrastructure Developer at a non-profit with 1,001-5,000 employees | 4.5 | We manage our wireless networks using Meraki Dashboard, appreciating its intuitive interface and regular updates. However, it lacks certain firewall features found in other products. Despite exploring alternatives, Meraki's ease of use kept us committed to the Cisco ecosystem. |
