Has anyone here used them and if so, have you encountered a situation in which the Meraki hardware couldn't do something that you could have gotten from a regular Cisco device?
I'm not too worried about the licensing vs one-time-buy decision, this is purely about the technical capabilities.
EDIT: Based on the responses I realize that I need to provide more detail.
- Company is mid sized
- No proper network management in place
- A need for 80 or so access switches (I was thinking the MS250-48FP)
- Possibly want to use them for fiber distribution as well, not sure
Basically, the company has a large network without anyone with the knowledge to properly manage it. And from what I'm gathering, they won't ever get the 'OKAY' to pay what a true network engineer would cost. At most they'll hire a CCNA level. With that in mind, I was thinking Meraki purely for the ease of management.
