3 About Cisco Meraki

4 Who we are and what we do A complete, powerful, and intuitive cloud-managed IT solution. Wireless | Security | Switching | Communications | Enterprise Mobility | Security Cameras NETWORKING IS COMPLICATED. WE’RE MAKING IT EASIER, FASTER, AND SMARTER. _____ Our products are used in over 800,000 networks worldwide; you’ll find them in classrooms, coffee shops, hospitals, and hotel rooms. Better networking means that businesses run more smoothly, and more people have reliable access to the information they need.

5 Why choose us?

6 Easiest solution to deploy, manage, and maintain Preconfigure networks before equipment is powered on or connected for rapid, plug-and-play deployment. Scale quickly without limits or bottlenecks — no need to purchase wireless LAN controllers. Manage your networks from anywhere you have internet connectivity using our intuitive, web-based dashboard. Oversee all Meraki and client devices — wired and wireless — from one place for centralized, end-to-end visibility and control.

7 Secure guest wireless in seconds Rapidly deploy secure guest WiFi with one-click client isolation that protects devices and network integrity. Increase brand awareness and customer engagement through integrated Facebook or Google sign-on, enabling deeper social media analytics. Deploy targeted advertising via built-in splash page hosting.

8 Integrated analytics for actionable insights Leverage out-of-the-box analytics to understand client behavior and foot traffic across sites and venues. Use location data to make informed decisions about staffing, event or storefront displays, advertising — even AP placement. Integrate raw, real-time data with business intelligence systems and perform deeper analysis using built-in API.

9 Granular control over bandwidth, apps, and client devices Get up-to-date insights into clients and application usage thanks to cloud-automated classification and device fingerprinting. Ensure network stability and higher productivity by prioritizing mission critical apps and throttling low-priority ones. Ensure baseline security and consistency across sites while drastically reducing deployment time with configuration templates.

10 Seamless Bluetooth integration for context-aware apps Easily locate and track important assets using built-in Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) scanning. Advertise to third-party mobile apps that use BLE to deliver context- and location-aware experiences.

11 High density support Provide a faster, more reliable WiFi experience and seamless connectivity across a venue with minimum bitrates and Layer 3 roaming. Reduce RF interference in congested areas with a dedicated scanning radio that proactively tunes to optimize performance. Support the highest possible number of concurrently connected clients with the latest 802.11ac Wave 2 MU-MIMO architectures. Enable groups like ticketing, refreshments, or emergency response to receive different security postures and network access across one SSID, reducing RF overhead.

12 ROI speaks for itself Example deployment Direct costs No purchase of WLAN controllers or centralized AP management Included Enterprise Support Included visibility & troubleshooting tools Access to all existing and future cloud-based wireless features Time Intuitive, centralized, single-pane-of-glass dashboard Plug-and-play deployment Network configuration templates Integrated analytics and reporting Integrated packet capture and event logs Real-time network access by Meraki Technical Support Automated firmware and feature updates No CLI Savings come from: Assumptions: Number of sites: 10 Equipment: 10 x MX65, 1000 x MR32, 20 x MS220-48FP Previous deployment: consumer grade, unmanaged Save 25 weeks’ worth of man-hours and $178,000+ over 3 years, on average.

13 But don’t just take our word for it “The cloud features of Meraki and the plug-and-play installation shaved at least a month off of our deployment cycle.” — Chris Biggers, IT Manager at the Boutique Hotel Collection “Meraki APs have fixed 99% of the wireless errors we were having before.” — Jeff Pick, Director of Technology for Make-A-Wish America “We had to pinch ourselves: ‘Is this really that simple?’” — Andrew McInerney, Data Network and Voice Manager at Penn Mutual “In a few weeks we added 10,000 devices to the network and 300 Meraki APs, roughly doubling the end user computing devices and significantly adding to the wireless — all without hiring a single extra person.” — John Krull, Chief Technology Officer for Oakland Unified School District
