Great products with a high pricetag

What do you like best about the product?
I really like how all Meraki products can be managed from their dashboard. And the WAP's were very easy to configure and were all discovered automatically (by a Meraki Gateway).
What do you dislike about the product?
Meraki makes great products but they're very expensive. Also the documentation and UI for setting up Meraki to use Radius authentication is not as straightforward as the rest of the features in the UI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cisco Meraki provides great products for the hospitality space. If you have all Meraki gear then everything is very easy to configure.
