"From the vice perspective, they just are not as robust as some of the other vendors. They have limitations in throughput and the number of circuits that they can support on a wide area network. Their higher-end security is all cloud-based. They have some capability with the premise-based solutions, but the higher ends are all cloud-based, and that's via Cisco Umbrella."
"The security could improve in Meraki SD-WAN."
"Some systems use some applications with the wrong data application. It bypasses the network, and you need to block that application on Meraki. We first try to put in passwords to do it and the network is not really safe. It's not 100%, the network can be bypassed."
"The product could be improved by being made more simple to use. We had some issues integrating our MPLS with Meraki SD-WAN."
"An area for improvement would be to add 4G bonding and allow Meraki devices to support dual 4G SIM cards."
"The default classes should be expanded."
"The solution could be improved if it added more features, especially monitoring and reporting features."
"Meraki could make better use of virtual connect."
