Find out in this report how the two Software Defined Networking (SDN) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is easy to set up and requires a single administrator to maintain it."
"Cradlepoint NetCloud is very stable."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the automatic failover."
"The Meraki interface is really well driven and very mature."
"t is very stable based on our experience and the application performance has been superb."
"Meraki SD-WAN is scalable."
"Zero touch configuration onsite based on the manager system's pre-configuration and the VPN automation set."
"Because it's a cloud-based network infrastructure, everything is done in the cloud, so I don't need to be on-site physically to be able to troubleshoot or resolve an issue. I can be anywhere and resolve an issue."
"The solution is stable."
"It is easy to monitor and manage."
"The solution is very stable."
"The performance of group-based clouds should be enhanced."
"It is missing important settings options."
"In our situation, the initial setup was complex."
"I would like to see more flexibility in our choices of customization for our needs."
"People are struggling a little bit with the lead times right now. It’s hard to actually get the hardware."
"We have a lot of problems with distribution. The late deliveries likely have to do with the time it takes for the fabrication of components. It is a principal problem at this moment."
"The tool has challenges with features like multiple-link support, which currently only supports up to three links. Additionally, it doesn't offer router integration, and forward error correction is another missing feature. The scalability of Meraki SD-WAN is good, but there are limitations to the performance of the concentrator devices, especially in larger deployments. While the cloud scale is not an issue, the performance of the devices in branches and data centres is limited."
"I think they should enhance the security."
"The security could improve in Meraki SD-WAN."
"There are literally things you cannot do at this point in a graphical user interface that can be done from a command line."
"I'm not too familiar with the Meraki environment, but I suppose more automation is always a good thing."
