	Cisco Meraki MR Wireless Access Points	FortiAP
Considered Both Products	Cisco Verified User Chose Cisco Meraki MR Wireless Access Points Meraki MR are certainly one of the good products on the market. The ease of use, configuration from the dashboard and the rollout are certainly the main differentiators of Meraki. The lifetime warranty of MR (not outdoor models) is also a great advantage. But, the licenses to … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Cisco Meraki MR Wireless Access Points The Meraki stacks well versus all the other solutions I have tested and installed. When I have installed other solutions, it is at the request of the customer. Everyone has their favorite, and has their whys they prefer one vendor over the other. Incentivized Helpful?	Fortinet Verified User Chose FortiAP Cisco Meraki also have a great Wifi solution and easily managed as well (even more user friendly). But, at the end, FortiAP just offer quite the same experience for less bucks. In greater deals, Meraki can sometimes be more agressive and compete on pricing structure, in this … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose FortiAP as a stand-alone product, the Fortinet wireless LAN solution isn't the most powerful, nor compelling out there. Others, like Cisco Meraki, offer great products, with added wifi features at a similar price point, but where Forti shines, is when integrated into a network with … Incentivized Helpful? Luis Lozada Engineering Team Lead in Engineering at TREXTEL LLC (Information Technology and Services, 51-200 employees) Chose FortiAP As far as features, Fortinet has them all. When compared to Meraki and WatchGuard, it comes out miles ahead. The biggest difference is price. You pay less for the Fortinet, but you do not lose the features you need to have a great solution.
