What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for Meraki SD-WAN?

The pricing of Meraki SD-WAN is a little bit on the pricey side. However, it is still a valuable product despite the cost.

The tool is costly. I rate the tool's price as a ten out of ten since it is very expensive.

The solution's pricing is in line with what we expected.

The product's pricing is moderate.

The product's price falls under the mid-range category, especially if we consider the new licensing model. The tool is not cheap anymore.

Regarding pricing, Meraki SD-WAN is quite competitive, especially compared to solutions like Fortinet. However, it's essential to consider that Meraki requires cloud orchestration, which adds to the overall cost. Overall, it's one of the most competitive solutions from Cisco for SD-WAN.

For a pure SD-WAN solution, the pricing is competitive. However, our clients are on the lower tier in terms of budget, viewing IT more as a necessary expense rather than integral to their business. While Meraki's solution might be pricey for them, there aren't many cheaper, reliable options. Other solutions claiming to offer SD-WAN don't match Meraki's sophistication and end up costing about the same, making Meraki's pricing reasonable for the service quality, though still a stretch for our client base. For our clients, I'd rate it around a seven out of ten in terms of pricing. It's not too expensive compared to high-end SD-WAN solutions like Vitello, but it's still a bit pricey for our client base who are accustomed to more budget-friendly options like TP-Link or inexpensive firewalls.

The license model depends on the customer and can be a yearly license, a three-year license, or a five-year license. There may be additional costs for certain licenses, such as Umbrella licenses or advanced licenses. The pricing ultimately depends on the functionality the customer requires.

The solution offers yearly licenses and product lines or prices are readily available on their website.

The solution is a bit expensive when compared to other products that bring more capacity such as Teltonika. The MX65 is $100 to $150 per license, per month. The MX80 or MX105 is $200 to $200 per license, per month. In contrast, Teltonika charges $2 per license, per month and that is a huge difference.

We have a yearly license.

The price of the solution varies. It depends on the customer. For most of the customer deployments, we tend to do either three or five years of licensing. Having a longer-term give us some discounting in terms compared to one year.

The price can vary depending on the challenges that you need to address. When you look at the stability and reliability against the price, you absolutely get the value for the price.

The licensing is very expensive. The fact that it does not recognize our cost from the previous licenses is a big drawback. The price covers the licensing and the box itself.

I am not aware of the licensing fees.

The price of this solution is good, it is not expensive.

One of the most valuable aspects of Meraki SD-WAN is the price. It is highly cost-effective.

Our clients pay Meraki an annual licensing fee and the pricing is not too bad when compared to other products in the Cisco portfolio.

Meraki's pricing is on the higher side, which may limit who can afford to use them.

They have a baseline software license, and then they've got an SD-WAN software license, and then they've got an advanced security software license. They're low cost, and they'll provide any amount of flexibility that you want from a modeling perspective for payment. Typically, it's either annually or multi-year, but they are a lower-cost company. They're not the most expensive by far. There is an additional cost of the equipment that doesn't tend to be high.

From the perspective of the customer, the price is not terribly cost-effective. It should be more attractive to the market.

This solution is more expensive than competitors.

I think the price for this solution is fair.

The price is reasonable.

If you purchase a Meraki gateway, you have to purchase a license. It's a basic license, and you will have SD-WAN included. When you buy a Meraki gateway, you already have SD-WAN.

I don't know that it's cheaper, but for the Auto VPN and automated updating, it's a time saver for a smaller IT team.

I can say that the pricing is fair, but if they can make it less it would be even more attractive. I think Meraki is also doing something good with their pricing in the sense that any license you buy until January 2021 gets you an extra year for that purchase. So if you buy a five-year license now, you actually get six years. The customers always want more when it comes to savings and Meraki is recognizing that.

We offer this solution to our customers as a more cost-effective alternative to some of the other products. Meraki is considered to be in a medium-range in terms of cost. The licensing fees are approximately $1,000 USD annually.

Meraki solutions come with a choice of several different subscription options including one year, three years, five years, seven years, and ten years.

Licensing is on a monthly basis. There are also fees for technical support.
