Streamline network management with a unified dashboard for seamless device integration
The primary use case for Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN is mostly for enterprise wireless, including guest Wi-Fi and enterprise Wi-Fi. I use it across various industries with a focus on retail Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN offers a single pane of glass management. It only comes with a controller on the…

Offers great control and visibility to users, along with availability on the cloud
The other solutions did not offer the visibility that Mojo Networks offered. During the rolling out of the installation process, you have to go through the on-premises model to be able to make some changes. If somebody needs to make necessary changes, you must go to the on-premises model with the initial product. With the cloud solution, you don't have to go for the on-premises model, as you can make the changes over the cloud. The stability offered by Mojo Networks is better than the other products available in the market since, with other tools, you need to keep restarting them frequently, and it may be required once or twice a day, especially if it is used as an enterprise solution or in an enterprise environment, where the traffic is too high, causing the build-up of a lot of cache memory, fill-ups, and SRAM, a reason why one will have to restart such products.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN is a user-friendly solution that has good performance and stability."
"From a security perspective, this product has several advantages."
"This product has allowed us to easily create custom SSIDs for clients and carve out the necessary bandwidth for clients needs."
"It is more robust for me to deploy networks. And because of the field we are in where offices open up and others close, it helps my turnaround time to deploy these networks for the customers."
"The most valuable features in Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN are that we were able to see all the registered users for each particular WAP, which is a big help. The roaming allows us to have continuous wireless throughout the building. The signal can carry over from one WAP to another. Which is probably the most important feature."
"It enables quick deployment within all branches for the users."
"The product's most beneficial feature impacting network security is the ability to provide centralized security management."
"It is cloud-based. You can manage it remotely from anywhere in the world, and you don't have to be on-site, which is a very big advantage."
"Security is top-notch with WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Prevention System)."
"It is a hundred percent scalable product since its functionalities are good...It is a very stable product."
"It's scalable. You don't have to configure an access point. Literally, if I needed a new one, I just take it right out of the box, go plug it into our network. It finds our Mojo network, and then it talks to the other access points that are close to it, and then it literally adopts the policies, and meshes itself in our network."
"For support, we do not have to deal with a whole phone menu tree. You get to talk to an engineer right away."
"It has given us a huge leg-up when competing with other managed service providers who use different vendors because of the visibility it gives us to customers' traffic for troubleshooting purposes."
"The stability of the solution has been good. We haven't had any issues."
"The configuration is simple and the reports can be automated."
"The security is a valuable feature."
 

Cons

"It is not a very stable solution."
"The only concern is when the license has expired and it will no longer function, the entire network goes down, without any notification, or warning."
"Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN could improve by having more granularity in terms of the data displayed. However, I understand that with Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN, you need to have a compromise point to what are the functions that you're going to provide to the users versus ease of use. More granularity in terms of the data and the things that you can do to the devices would be helpful. For example, when we wanted to make a change, restriction, or segregation within Palo Alto, we can go to the level of detail that we want. The amount of detail provided is amazing, it is very granular. However, it comes with much more difficulty, it requires a technical understanding of the environment compared to Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN."
"There is a processing limitation when you have multiple SSIDs, above three or four."
"Currently, with Meraki, a controller is required to direct guest and user traffic to the internet. Improvement is needed in the portal for enhanced visibility into activities. Additionally, addressing multiple bugs, especially those arising with new releases, is crucial to ensure system stability."
"The biggest pain point is that they limit you through firewall throughput. I understand why they do it, but that really grates me. For instance, for 450 Mbps throughput, you're looking at £800 for a router, whereas if you look at the one gig connection, for some of us are lucky enough to have a gig connection, you could almost be spending £3,000 for the option to have one gig connectivity. That's one of the pain points I've got. I don't mind paying for throughput, but I should at least have the option to be able to update that throughput, maybe through extra licensing or something else. It is crazy expensive to jump through to the next one."
"The technical support from Cisco is good, but they can improve themselves in some areas. Sometimes it takes a while to provide a solution or an answer to our problem."
"The initial setup of the solution can be improved and made easier."
"The product's initial setup phase and configuration are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"Compared to other OEMs, Mojo Networks or Arista faces a little bit of coverage issues. So, if we put the same dBm, the power of the other OEMs indicates much more extensive coverage compared to Mojo or Arista."
"The implementation could be simplified. Right now it's a bit complex."
"Further expanding the API and access to even more diagnostics, as I have found a few limitations when I am dealing with them right now."
"The setup was complex."
"They could use more additional application security and network security features. They could add on to the WiFi as a selling point. It would be nice to be able to say to the WiFi users, "We will protect you against viruses and malware, so you don't have to purchase that.""
"The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"The customer service and support took a lot of time to come on the troubleshooting call."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We pay licensing fees."
"The price of Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN is per unit and it has annual maintenance costs."
"This solution is quite costly and there are costs in addition to the licensing fees."
"The cost of both the hardware and licensing is high, and it is more than what I would prefer to spend currently."
"Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN's pricing is high."
"I haven't conducted a price comparison yet, but based on information, it appears to be more affordable than the current environment. Therefore, I consider the price to be reasonable."
"It is expensive."
"The cost is not so much for Wireless LAN, but when you have to get the security license, it costs a lot."
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
"They have been a great price competitor against some of the other big brands, like Meraki, especially for cloud-based WiFi. However, Meraki has been more expensive. They beat Meraki on features for the WiFi, which makes them a better choice even if the price is the same."
"Pricing includes the planning tools, management, security, analytics, and advanced guest WiFi capabilities. It's always better to buy the longest term available for the best ROI. However, device will continue to function without valid cloud license."
"I rate the product's price as an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"Of every solution we looked at, every wireless solution, Mojo was a minimum of six figures cheaper. Minimum. Most of them were double, which again is unheard of. Not only do you get all the feature benefits, like everything is there, everything just works, but at the same time, it was a no-brainer, because of the cost. It's almost like you hit the lottery."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
"The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
