"What I love most about the Meraki Dashboard are its user-friendly features."
"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."
"It's really user-friendly."
"It's a simple, functional solution."
"The most valuable feature is knowing the wireless and switch are healthy."
"Easy to configure with great troubleshooting feature."
"What I found most valuable in the Meraki Dashboard is straight monitoring of the different devices, as well as the ability to easily set up VPNs, for example, both Meraki client VPNs and non-Meraki VPNs for different organizations that work with my company. I also like that the tool is a really good firewall."
"Everything is in a single pane and you can look at your network in one centralized place."
"The Marvis feature of Mist AI, an artificial intelligence tool, is very useful."
"The most useful aspect of Mist AI and Cloud is automation capabilities."
"If you compare wired versus wireless, it's convenient. You don't need to have one place for connectivity. You can move around and it's easier. Sometimes it's a hassle to work with wires, which is why wireless is so convenient."
"There are several valuable features. One of them is Cibas, and another one is Marvis."
"Mist AI and Cloud is the best solution I have seen in the industry, especially from the artificial intelligence perspective, as it helps businesses."
"Mist AI and Cloud have definitely improved the functioning of our organization. The access to the Internet, including its speed and reliability, has significantly improved."
"Has an extremely good feature set."
"Ability to control the access points by groups."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The wait time to speak with a Meraki support engineer is always long, but they get the job done."
"The one issue that we have had is that the VPN tunnel would go down unless you worked out with the ISP that you would be using a static IP address on the WAN interface."
"What needs improvement in Meraki Dashboard is its configuration. It'll also be better if the tool has more functionality, and that is what I'd like to see in its next release."
"Meraki Dashboard's pricing could be improved."
"It's a very complex system. Customers have told me that sometimes there are lots of advanced features that are available and that you can change in the dashboard, but sometimes it's very hard to know what they are."
"I would like to receive decent notification alerts regarding the license's expiry. Or any help on correcting or optimizing licenses, because in certain circumstances you can add a license but it's the wrong licensing. However, the Dashboard adds the license in some way, and you do not utilize it. You can simply extend the license's expiration date."
"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."
"Meraki Dashboard could improve the user interface by making it more user-friendly. The configuring can at times be difficult."
"Mist AI and Cloud need to improve the configuration speed."
"Configuration could be improved."
"Juniper should integrate all their dashboards instead of having separate dashboards...Since it lacks the integration of dashboards, Juniper needs to improve it."
"Mist AI and Cloud should improve its integrations."
"The solution doesn't provide mail notifications currently."
"Mist AI and Cloud should be marketed more and focus on making partners in the industry."
"The user experience should be improved. It's not user-friendly."
"The solution has various licensing policies. It will be easy to use if it is an open single license."
