Developing Cloud Technologies That Interact With Hardware

Networking is complicated. Meraki is making it easier, faster, and smarter. Our products are used in over 1 million networks worldwide; you’ll find them in classrooms, coffee shops, hospitals, and hotel rooms. Better networking means that businesses run smoother, and more people have reliable access to the information they need.From the hardware to the firmware to the intuitive management interface and the distributed backend that powers it, Meraki’s engineers hack every layer of the stack. The resulting integration provides benefits unmatched in the networking industry: over-the-air firmware upgrades for increased security, templated configuration for managing distributed enterprises, and fully automated topology visualization for easier monitoring, to name only a few. And we’re always building new features, meaning that our wireless access points, switches, firewalls, phones, and cameras keep getting better, even after they’re purchased.
