It would either push or recommend. If you have the right credentials, you could also push. It is very good if you are a Cisco shop.

"The dashboard itself is very simplified and easy to navigate."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The only downside to this software is the price."
"It is not as robust as other NPM solutions. For instance, there is a problem while labeling specific applications. It works well with well-known applications, but when you have to put in new applications that are not very known and set them up with names, ports, URLs, or some protocols, it is not as intuitive."

"If I am a user and I have a seat on the fourth floor, if I move across the building, the system should be able to track me and should be able to figure out my whereabouts or my position within the building if I'm connected to the wireless.

"Meraki lacks their own software for connecting to the VPN which creates some issues."
"The product is missing a VPN and it is a major issue when it comes to deployment."
"The solution can be expensive."
"I would like to see an alert event feature to monitor what users are downloading and how to block some applications."
"Some features could be added."
"For my purposes, I don't need to see any other features added to the Meraki Dashboard. I have no criticisms and I do like the tool. If I had a criticism for it, it would be about the pricing because it could be a little less, but again, for the service that you get, I won't complain about that too much."
