Pros

“Our Meraki dashboard is our lifeline for knowing what is going on across our network from power outages to wireless health and bandwidth utilization. ”

Director of Technology

“Being able to manager and overview all the network devices is just amazing”
WM

Will M.

“The limitation with integrating other brands to the dashboard.”
AC

Alex C.

IT MANAGER

Pros

“We found that if workstation has agent from "previous installation" (for example, from some historical not cleaned PoC) and there is no "previous" Endpoint Central server available - the only option is to gather data using special tool, send it to support and receive specific cleaning tool, otherwise you can't install "current" agent.”
II

Ilya I.

Cybersecurity Implementation Expert

“The automation features significantly reduce repetitive tasks, and the remote troubleshooting tools are especially valuable in managing distributed environments. Although the interface and advanced configurations may take some time to get familiar with, the overall performance and feature set make it a reliable endpoint management solution.”
