"The most valuable features of Meraki MS Switches are simple deployment and administration. You can have all your switches in one place and manage them."
"The solution's web filtering feature could be improved."
"The solution could be cheaper."
"The technical support needs a lot of improvement."
"They could be more stable. They were not as resistant as Cisco. After some time, some of them failed. This could be because we import quite a lot of products from different horizons, so there is no guarantee of quality. In Africa, these products don't always directly come from the manufacturer. We get these products from the Middle East or Asia. Therefore, you cannot be sure that the quality is exactly similar to what you have in Europe or America."
"Its security features need improvement."
"They need to enhance stability."
"The availability could be improved."
"The solution needs to improve layer 2 switches."
"If they added the option to manage it locally, not in the cloud, it would be better."
"It would be great if the switch can identify the IP address connected to the network port. It seems most of the switches cannot identify the IP address. They can identify the MAC address but not the IP address."
"One area where Meraki MS switches could improve is offering smaller switch sizes for distribution switches."
"Meraki should include an application to assist users with the design of access points."
"Less flexibility than in some other solutions."
"The lead times can be long in terms of actually getting the hardware."
"They're definitely missing some of the higher end data center Cisco features."
"It is a compact switch, so there are a limited number of ports, and it needs improvement in terms of scalability."
