Jeremy, We've deployed 475+ APs over the last three years and been *very *happy until recently. The lack of transparency is becoming problematic. Non-firmware dependent (cloud) features often come and go without warning or documentation. Firmware release notes are unavailable. We recently blindly updated the firmware before school started and appear to be paying a price. That price is at least two-fold, APs regularly stop accepting connections until rebooted (not cool) and reverting to previous firmware doesn't seem to be an option. Engineering is on the case, but tight-lipped.
We've also had a few MR16s start failing recently. I don't expect them to last forever but hope this is not a trend. I'd categorize us as still very happy with Meraki but no longer in cheerleader mode :-) You should definitely consider them. Rand Rand P. Hall Director, Network Services askIT!
