"Meraki dashboard deserves an Oscar."
"It's a simple, functional solution."
"The most valuable feature is its simplicity in navigating through the dashboard. It's well set out, and the layout is nice and user friendly. A lot of clients enjoy seeing layer 7 visibility. They get a good indication and insight into what is happening in their network and what applications are being used the most. They can then customize and give preference to business-critical applications."

"The two views into the system are very good but could be extended to further customization to fit the need of end users in a variety of roles."
"ManageEngine OpManager can improve by having better updates for critical issues."
"The licensing model is confusing."
"Some features could be added."
"There is a bit of a problem when you try to log in and you don't have a fixed IP address. If you're granting access, you need to log in by using the IP address. If your administrator's IP address is not a fixed IP address and it has changed, you might need to update the changed IP address in the interface. For this, you need to log in to the interface to update the IP address. This issue might not have so much to do with Meraki interface."
"The solution can be expensive."
"Something that needs to be improved, is the fact that you if you don't renew the subscription license, it stops working. I would also like to see SSL BPM support for anything else."
"The MDM, however, is bad. We're using another MDM now because Meraki was so bad."
"More integration would be an improvement."
"What we would like from the IT perspective is a lot more granular control, more visibility into the packets, into the routing, and things of that nature."
"I’d like the product to allow for other solutions to be integrated with the dashboard as well."
