I won this device in a rally-auction and would like to compare it to a fortigate FWW60D wireless model. Now keep in mind; " the cheaper and low performing fortigates like a; 30 or 40 models, also out does the Meraki MX60 "
I put together a table of comparative features that you might want to consider b4 buying one
( MX60 ). I think your money could be better spent on a fortigate and you will gain a lot more
Now on the bright side of things, the reporting from the meraki is very superior. Actually it's superior to a fortigate imho.
Application awareness and fingerprinting looks very nice also. I hate that you need a license to get any of these features, but this is how cisco makes money.
With the low power usage and noise generation, this series of firewall is geared for installation a sale kiosk inside of a mall or small storefront.
The pricing make the devices afford for most business, but you can do way better & cheaper with a sonicwall for example. Some of the features might be over-kill for a soho or small-business
Who really need IPS in a SOHO, or most advance security features?
