Cisco Meraki MDM
Product Summary
Cisco Meraki is a cloud-managed networking platform within Cisco that provides visibility and control across networking, security, and endpoint environments. Its mobile device management (MDM) feature, offered through Meraki Systems Manager, enables organizations to manage and secure mobile devices from a single dashboard.
Systems Manager integrates with the broader Cisco security ecosystem as well as adjusts and enforces network access policies based on device compliance.
It should be noted that Cisco announced the end-of-sale (EOS) for Meraki Systems Manager on December 2, 2025. New purchases will be available until June 3, 2026, and support will continue through June 3, 2029. With that said, organizations evaluating long-term MDM strategies should consider alternative solutions for future deployments.
Use Cases
- Security:
Meraki Systems Manager enables administrators to enforce security policies to protect device data, restrict device features, and control passcode requirements. - Content management:
The platform’s on-device content management feature lets technicians deploy and manage apps, images, documents, and other files on Android, Apple, and Windows devices. - Geolocation:
Cisco Meraki’s geolocation capabilities allow users to locate managed devices and enforce security policies such as lost-mode or location-based restrictions.
Shortcomings
- Product lifecycle status:
With Systems Manager now in EOS, organizations may need to transition to alternative platforms before support ends. - Limited customization:
Meraki’s UI and branding customization options are relatively limited compared to those of other standalone MDM solutions. - Log information:
The customer portal lacks some necessary log information, making it challenging for technicians to swiftly analyze and troubleshoot issues.
