The price of Meraki MS Switches is high.

I rate the price of Meraki MS Switches a three out of five.

Meraki MS Switches are better for stability, scalability, and ease of use, but if you compare the cost-performance ratio, Huawei switches are much better.

I rate Meraki MS Switches a nine out of ten.

I am using Meraki MS Switches as a network switch. We can monitor the device and end-users on the Meraki Cloud Dashboard.

The most valuable feature of Meraki MS Switches is user-friendliness.

There are some limitations in Meraki MS Switches. Other switches have more options, such as the Cisco Catalyst Switch.

I have been using Meraki MS Switches for approximately six months.

Meraki MS Switches are stable.

The scalability of Meraki MS Switches is good.

I have received good technical support from Meraki MS Switches.

Meraki MS Switches are simple to set up. The deployment of the solution takes approximately two hours.

The price of Meraki MS Switches is less expensive than other similar solutions.

My advice to others is to create a proper dashboard and configuration.

I rate Meraki MS Switches a nine out of ten.

The most valuable features are ease of use and configuration. It has a cloud-based configuration that makes it easy.

They've added some improvements to firmware update scheduling where you can stagger the updates, which is the biggest advantage. Prior to that, you could not stagger updates when you have data center switches or stacks, which was difficult. They've now added some improvements for more update processes to stagger devices, which has greatly improved my happiness. It is in beta right now.

They tend to have some weird issues with fiber uplinks.

I have been using these switches for six years. We have the latest version.

They are stable. The only issues I've encountered are with fiber uplinks.

I don't have any scalability issues, but there are certain things for which I probably wouldn't use it, such as storage area, networking, etc. For local LAN, it shouldn't have any scalability issues.

It's usually pretty good. It tends to lack when we run into some bug issues. They take time.

It was straightforward. For maintenance, one to two people are enough for about 200 users.

It depends on what type of equipment you have and other things. We're about $17,000 a year.

I would rate these switches an eight out of ten.

Mainly, we do some configurations and allow for ports to be opened on the firewall. 

For the most part, the solution has been stable.

The solution can scale fairly well. 

The cloud-based deployment is very straightforward.

We have dealt with a few minor bugs. 

We would like the solution to lower its costs. 

I've been using the solution for one year.

The solution is largely stable and reliable. That said, we have faced some very minor bugs here and there. It hasn't been a big deal in general.

The scalability is good. It's likely as scalable as Aruba, for example. If a company needs to expand it, it can do so. 

We have 150 people using the solution currently.

We've never contacted technical support. I cannot speak to how helpful or responsive they are. 

We also work with Aruba.

I've also worked with FortiSwitch in the past, at a different job.

We have found the initial setup to be easy. If it is cloud-based, it's a really easy installation. There is no need for a reprogram mission or something like that or to even worry about having to do some coding. 

I cannot recall how long the deployment took. However, it does depend on the internet connection. As a cloud-based solution, you need to download all the configurations from the headquarters. 

You only need one manager and two technicians to handle the deployment and maintenance tasks. 

Users do have to pay to license the solution. 

The pricing could be lowered a bit.

I would recommend the solution, however, it depends on the project. 

I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten.

We are using Meraki MS Switches as a network device in our organization.

Meraki MS Switches have a very user-friendly dashboard and the policies are straightforward for sending them to the devices and blocking sites.

The traffic reporting should be better in Meraki MS Switches. We want to be able to see all the traffic and where it is going. Additionally, detailed device utilization information would be very helpful for the security personnel.

The solution VPN is based on Windows features. They have to come up with their own solution because of what is happening, sometimes it is connecting and sometimes not. If they had their own tool, these types of issues can be mitigated.

I have been using Meraki MS Switches for approximately six months.

I rate Meraki MS Switches an eight out of ten.

I find administration management and the cloud to be valuable features.

The scalability and integrative abilities with on-premises systems could stand improvement. 

I am talking about the monitoring features and those directly concerning the internal management systems. The stock switches should be more reliable. 

The solution is a bit on the pricey side. 

The solution is stable. 

The scalability could be better. 

The technical support is fine. 

The initial setup and deployment are easy. 

The price could be lower. 

We are satisfied with the solution when it comes to that concerning a small environment. 

I use the solution in my company. 

I rate Meraki MS Switches as a seven out of ten. 

I use this solution at work and in my house. The network in my house runs on Cisco Meraki. I use it to connect my home network to the internet.

At work, we use it to connect the users, their network, and their computers to the network.

It is easy to work with. 

The dashboard is awesome. It provides you with very rich information, and when it comes to troubleshooting, it provides you with a wealth of information on the network about what is going on.

It tells you what traffic goes out and what traffic comes in.

It's very good. It provides you with a very deep look and there is a lot of good information if you need it.

I would like to add a voice capability to Meraki, to make a call or receive a call. It can be done in the software or some type of hardware.

The switches have wireless, routers, firewalls, and SD-WAN. They have also added cameras to their product lines, as well as the sensors in their product lines.

I like to see to add some voice capability to complete the circle. That would make them complete in terms of having the ability to make a phone call. For example, if I am buying their products and I need a phone, then I would have to go buy a phone from another vendor. 

It would be nice because if I had a phone added then I would need to go to any other vendor. 

I would have one dashboard where I could see my sensors, my firewall, my switches, my wireless, and I can see the switch, I could see everything. I wouldn't need to go to the dashboard to look at my phone activity. It would all be on one dashboard and involve one vendor.

I have used Meraki MS Switches for many years.

I am using the latest version.

Meraki MS Switches is a stable product.

Meraki MS Switches are scalable.

The technical support is awesome. When you send an email, they respond quickly. They run 24/7.

It is easy to set up.

It is so simple that anyone could install it.

I don't have an issue with the price of this solution.

I am currently doing research to see what technology would be best suited for a particular issue that we are facing.

I haven't experienced any problems with this solution. 

If I had, I would have switched to another vendor, and I wouldn't use it at home.

I use it at work and at home and I don't have any issues.

I would rate Meraki MS Switches a ten out of ten.

We use it for network connectivity in our organization. We use it across all of our locations.

It is cloud-based. So, the software is updated to the latest firmware on a regular basis by Cisco. We have a private cloud.

I like the support, and basically, that's why I'm using Meraki by Cisco.

I've had some hardware failure issues on the POE side on several switches across the years. There seems to be a problem with the POE ports of their unit system.

I have been using this solution for probably seven or eight years.

They're pretty good. I would give them a 10 out of 10.

If you're looking for cloud switches, I would definitely recommend including them in your evaluation because they're really good. 

I would rate Meraki MS Switches a nine out of 10.

I use this solution as a network switch in colleges.

The main features of Meraki MS Switches are integration, high quality, and hardware guarantee.

The solution does not fit all use cases. 

I have used Meraki MS Switches within the last 12 months.

I have not used technical support. However, I have used documentation for the solution.

I have evaluated other firewalls, such as Aruba.

I rate Meraki MS Switches a ten out of ten.
