The licensing costs depend on the environment. In comparison to other brands, it is expensive. 

Cisco products are generally recognized for their performance and quality, which may justify the higher price point compared to other options on the market. However, customers have some concerns regarding pressure to upgrade certain services, such as video surveillance, based on Cisco LAN infrastructure. Now, Cisco has shifted its strategy to be more open to integrating other technologies and brand devices.

The tool is reasonably priced.

I haven't conducted a price comparison yet, but based on information, it appears to be more affordable than the current environment. Therefore, I consider the price to be reasonable.

Each Meraki license is around 130. We pay $139 for three years. So every three years we spend about $13,000.

The license is based on an annual subscription. It is a relatively expensive solution compared to traditional network alternatives.

The cost of the hardware and licensing is extreme compared to other vendors. The Meraki model would be great for small/medium businesses with many locations to manage in one dashboard. However, it's not good for education, the roaming often doesn't work and the rollback is difficult, especially if Meraki decide they are not going to help you, and not fix their issues for 18 months.

The pricing is on the higher side. I would rate it eight out of ten. While it may be relatively expensive, Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN justifies its cost with its high-quality features and performance.

On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten.

These units cost between $800 and $900 per device and on top of that, you have to pay yearly fees for maintenance. The annual maintenance costs about $75 per year, which is why we are moving away from this solution.

We do a three-year or five-year license and support. Its price could be better, but overall, we get competitive prices.

A lot of times, Cisco puts itself out of range, especially with Meraki. I've dealt with a lot of business development from Cisco, and they have always been accommodating, especially in dealing with hospitals or government. There is also a right time to buy it. July is when they are eager to sell a lot of things because that is the end of their calendar year.

Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN's pricing is high. 

The platform is expensive. Its licenses for 20 ports cost around $1000, including one year of support services.

Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN is expensive. I rate its pricing an eight out of ten.

The box itself is very cheap. The question here is about the subscription because this is what you will pay every year. In the initial year, for purchasing, Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN gives you an attractive price. While during renewal, we are not given much discount.

There are multiple licensing options including three months, six months, and one year.

My client has made comments on the price, indicating it is expensive, however you do receive a lot for the money that you did spend on the solution. The price of the annual renewal of the licensing of Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN is a little high. We wish the price would drop.

I have looked at our parts and labor sheet, for a three-year license for three access points and the A port PoE switch, will cost approximately $1,200. It is approximately $400 a year for licensing for Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN.

This solution is quite costly and there are costs in addition to the licensing fees.

Depending on the preference of the customer, we have some monthly or yearly licenses.

The platform is highly priced. We have purchased its five-year license.

The platform is more expensive than other solutions.

The cost of both the hardware and licensing is high, and it is more than what I would prefer to spend currently.

The cost isn't too high for an enterprise setup. 

We pay a license for three years for support and maintenance. 

Meraki is a very good solution, but the price is quite high for small markets. We are based in Mexico and within Latin America, most of our customers think that this is an expensive solution compared to other brands. Overall, we think that the price is too high.

For example, the cheapest license subscription is around $600. It's around $1,200 for one access point. This is really expensive for one customer. Other brands charge the same amount for around five access points.

Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN is not a reasonably priced product for home use. Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN is a reasonably priced product for enterprise-sized businesses.

We are on a SmartNet contract. All of our Cisco products are licensed under one contract. I do not think there are any additional costs.

It is super expensive for what you get. You also have to buy a license every year. Otherwise, it stops working.

The product is expensive. I rate the pricing a nine out of ten.

The pricing is a little higher than other similar architecture products such as Ruckus or Aruba. Meraki has a premium pack added to it so it's costly.

The pricing could be cheaper. It's the one pain point.

We pay a monthly fee.

Its licensing is on a yearly basis. It can be for three, five, or ten years.

I'm happy with the pricing. You basically pay for what you get. It is that simple. When you look at Ubiquiti or Aruba, Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN far outweighs what you get. If you're in the UK, Ubiquiti gives a three-year or five-year warranty, whereas here in the UAE, they only give a one-year warranty, which is no good to me. Who buys a piece of equipment with only one year warranty on it? It doesn't make sense.

I would rate the pricing of Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN as a five. It could be more affordable than other solutions like Aruba.

Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN is an expensive solution.

It is an expensive solution. There are additional costs apart from standard licenses as well.

When compared to other vendors, Cisco's pricing is higher.

It is expensive.

Meraki is certainly not the cheapest solution. The coterminous licensing that they do is a challenge with some of the sites where there's corporate and franchise sites. If a franchise is buying in and they want to put them on the same dashboard, it means that their license is going to expire earlier than it should. The fact that if you don't license it, it just stops working has been a challenge. It's not as friendly as would be ideal, where other solutions will not allow you to do any changes but it will keep working. If some of our clients are less organized at renewals this is a little bit adverse. MX appliances are a little overpriced for their power.

The market is competitive. Customers do not have much money to invest. However, we have a new solution. We are looking for McAfee share.

In Vietnam, the license policy is yearly, which could be one year, three years, or five years.

The pricing is okay. However, they don't have a perpetual license option. Regardless of what type of functionality a customer is looking for, they have to go for subscription-based licensing.

I don't recall the licensing cost. There is a hardware cost and separate licensing. We did buy the free lessons, but I can't recall how much it cost.

Negotiate the deal put in front of you!

For some customers, Cisco is not the first choice when it comes to pricing. The solution is pretty expensive.

The price of Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN could be improved, it is too expensive. We pay for the solution on an annual basis.

The price could be slightly better, but then again, we negotiate deals every time so the market price isn't really relevant.

Meraki and Aruba are available for almost exactly the same price. The price/benefit ratio is great. Meraki is more affordable than Aruba, HPE, and others.

I don't deal with pricing directly, however, it's my understanding that it is around $40 per unit. I'm not well versed in MDM pricing, to be honest. It's not something I work with.

I'm more on the managed services, professional services, which includes getting everything set up and dealing with all the problems around it, versus the actual licensing part.

Users have to pay a yearly license fee for the solution. The pricing of Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN is good.

We pay a yearly license fee for the solution.

It is expensive, but it is a good product.

The pricing is based on a subscription and is a bit high at the moment.

Pricing is directly tied to licensing. Longer terms are a better value than shorter ones, but the customer needs to determine which options is best.

My yearly license costs $200.

The licensing isn't very customer-centric. They may have improved it, but previously, if you forgot to pay on a certain day, your service would be shut off. 

Having a good price is important when we are providing quotations for projects.

It's a little expensive to use Meraki WLAN. You have to pay for all the licenses.

I can't speak to the pricing or licensing. It's not an aspect of the solution I take care of.

The only thing that always causes problems with Meraki is the license. It's a bit of a bugbear with Meraki, and it remains today. So it's an unusual concept compared to the other products in the marketplace, but then it does cause a bit of a nuisance from time to time. The license they sell is difficult.

Its price is higher than other products. It is above the expectation of customers. So, every time we need to fight for a good price. 

Their biggest challenge is cost. Since it's been acquired by Cisco, it's an even higher cost.

The cost is not so much for Wireless LAN, but when you have to get the security license, it costs a lot.

I would say that they have adequate pricing.

We pay licensing fees.

The setup cost varies from Service Provider to others, how they want to build the cost model. The licensing part for Meraki is extensible, it depends on which model you would choose to offer to the market as SP. Mostly pricing models are yearly contractual fees, but normally you would pay as one time cost as SP. In our case, we followed the international pricing trend for WiFi where you Bundle connectivity Per Access Point on a flat-rate monthly fee, and the customer doesn't want to pay extra charges and want easy to install plug and play solutions. In that specific case, you transfer the ownership of the hardware to the customer, while you charge only for Monitoring and Management which are minimal fees. 

You have to renew your contract every year, or for three or for five years. If you do not pay right away they will suspend your subscription.

You only have the option to pay yearly, not monthly.

This solution is expensive, but it's a Cisco product and the solution is really stable. You pay for the quality of the product.

If you are wondering if Meraki can work for you, contact one of their representatives because they will do onsite trials where you can set up their system. If it does not work, you can send it back to them for no charge.

As is always the case, the price could be better, although I do not recall exactly how much this comes out to. I do know that I make tri-annual purchases of the solution. The fee is once every three years. 

The solution is pricey. It's an expensive product.

Licensing is on an annual basis and there is also the hardware inventory. If the firewall goes down, for example, that could cause a problem. The point of failure and the work involved around it makes it a more costly solution.

The solution is overly expensive. 

I don't have any information about the pricing of the solution. I'm not sure I could estimate the costs on a yearly or monthly basis as I don't deal with finances at our organization. I do believe our company offers very good value for money, although it's my understanding that it's not exactly on the cheapest end of the spectrum.

The price is quite high, but it does have higher functionalities as well. You pay a lot, but you get a good product. Still, it could potentially be 10-15% cheaper than it is.

We pay a yearly subscription. It's my understanding that you can pay for one, two, three or five-year subscriptions. There aren't any fees above that.

Cisco Meraki requires either a one year or three year license for a standard enterprise license.

There is an annual license required for the solution.

The pricing is pretty good. Customers don't seem to mind it. It's reasonable. 

We don't like the licensing model and we think that it needs to be improved significantly.

It is expensive.

It's a pretty good value, but not great. Pricing is on a yearly basis for the Meraki solution.

Its price is okay for an enterprise. Its licensing is the most painful. If you hear anything bad about Cisco, it's about that. We're supposed to be one of the resellers but had to come back down to become a user. It's really bizarre.

The price can be negotiated.

Licensing is available on a yearly basis. A higher subscription fee may be necessary if extra features are required.

After the third year, because it's Cisco, the prices go higher. 

I think the Meraki APs are very cheap, I am using them even at home.

The price of Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN is per unit and it has annual maintenance costs.

The price is on the high side when compared to Aruba. We pay for Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN on a yearly basis.

The solution could improve the licensing structure and the price is expensive.

The subscription model needs to improve because when the subscription expires the solution stops working and you are not able to use the product. This needs to improve.

The price of the product could be cheaper.

This solution is slightly more expensive than others, such as Ruckus Wi-Fi. There are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees.

Pricing of Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN could be better.

Its price is high and should be reduced.
