With all due respect @PhilE, this feedback has been provided to our multiple sales reps and the "request a feature" links on the dashboard for as long as we have resold Meraki (10 years+).   Development and feature adoption is crawling at a snails pace. We are being left behind by competitive more cost effective solutions.    Please forgive me for being pessimistic but it seems as if Meraki is more invested in marketing and pushing out "SWAG" more than DevOps and driving for industry leading network tech.    In any event, I hope this latest event is the catalyst that pushes for real change. ...

@Schmitty  I will find any avenue I can to voice my opinions as it's the only way it's going to drive any real change.   Your failure to acknowledge the premise of my argument is the problem. You keep referencing internet outages and BGP as if it has anything to do with Cisco Meraki's inability to provide it's customers with out-of-band management. Stop fanboying this subject into oblivion and let's call it for what it is, garbage. Cisco Meraki has fallen behind the curve and it continues to do so. ... View more

@Schmitty  We most certainly do.   Internet outages we can be dealt with, we have fail-over circuits for that. Loosing the ability to manage your infrastructure on top of a wide spread internet outage is an embarrassment.    I'll repeat, For as much as this garbage costs, lacking the ability to manage your infrastructure because the "cloud" is down is NOT acceptable. It's 2020. Cisco Meraki is a laggard in this space. Both my organization and client's are paying the price due to the inadequate releases of features and quality of life improvements from Cisco Meraki.   Your scapegoat argument just doesn't hold any weight bud, sorry.  ...

As much as we pay for this crap it's completely merited please spare me this wide spread internet service garbage. This is the type of behavior that enables company like Cisco to drag their feet on accessibility features. This is not acceptable. No status pages to advise what's going on, no ability to call into support without access to the dashboard or memorizing your customer number.. Cisco Meraki is a dying breed. Cost effective hybrid solutions are taking over this space. What's the advantage of cloud-based networking when the cloud is just another single point of failure? ... View more

The more I work with Cisco Meraki the more I realize this company is complete garbage. Expensive garbage. ... View more
