We are a heavily invested Meraki environment, from our corporate locations to APs. Using a vMX as apposed another solution is a no brainer. It integrates well, has the same benefits as the rest of the Meraki stack, and you can leverage your favorite cloud platform

If you need multiple ISPs for wan aggregation or site to site failover. This box can tolerate failures of ISPs and sites with less than 1-3 seconds of outage time.

Cons
  • some organizations may require more throughput than what vMX-L can offer

Alternatives Considered
In terms of the Cisco suite, we also have Cisco Webex Calling IP deck solution right out across our centers. That has proven to be phenomenal in terms of performance and stability. With that alone, we've cut back our incident rate of telephony related issues by half essentially, which used to be our top rated issue previously. So the WebEx IP deck solution would be another product I would recommend.

Fatpipe invented SD-WAN over 25 years ago and has been leading the way. Other companies I think have just ridden their coattails.
