Meraki MDM licensing - co-term future dates

[NickHowells]

Hi

I am hoping you can help me with some licensing calculations.

We have a customer using Meraki MDM - Systems Manager Enterprise (SME)
They have 110 x MDM licenses, active to August 2021 (bought 3 years in August 2018).

I have a query, ref co-terming - do you have a tool or calculator tool you use that can estimate what date a Dashboard would go to if we add more licenses?

In this case - I have 4 scenarios
What estimated dates would we get to if .....
1 - They add 90 new 1 year SME licenses

2 - They add 90 new 3 year SME licenses

3 - They buy 200 1 year SME licenses (which is the existing 110 plus 90 NEW)
4 - They buy 200 3 year SME licenses (which is the existing 110 plus 90 NEW)

Customer would like to know before they commit to ordering the new ones.


Regards
Nick

Sorry i cant get that license calculator link to work, I have tried, it pushes me to Dashboard and as I dont have a Meraki dashboard, or access to the customer's one, I cannot get to the license calculator link. Sorry!

You can read about the calculator here:

https://documentation.meraki.com/zGeneral_Administration/Licensing/Using_the_License_Calculator 

The link to get to the calculator is this:

https://dashboard.meraki.com/manage/dashboard/license_calculator 

What happens is after you click on it it redirects to the shard you are on so it can lookup what you have now (so links from one person are not likely to work for another person).

Hi

I am afraid that will not work, I do not have access to the customer’s Meraki Dashboard.

Our customer, is asking the question of us, the Cisco Partner.

We do not have access to their Dashboard.

@NickHowells you should be able to create an account and just sign in to use the calculator I presume.

I tried that, and alas not, it needs to see a Meraki network, and as we're the partner, we have no Meraki kit or licenses to import to run a test (we have CISCO classic not Meraki  😥

I will pass all this info to the customer, and view with them to talk them through the process.
