Which indicator that a customer would benefit from a Cisco Meraki cloud-managed network is true?

Explanation

Option B is correct because Cisco Meraki is purpose-built for cloud-managed simplicity - its centralized dashboard provides end-to-end network visibility across all devices, and its zero-touch provisioning enables rapid deployment without requiring on-site technical staff.

  • A is wrong because Meraki is designed for a unified, streamlined ecosystem, not a diverse multi-vendor firewall architecture with heavy third-party integrations.
  • C is wrong because Meraki deliberately abstracts away hardware complexity and CLI access - customers wanting modular hardware and granular CLI control would choose traditional Cisco IOS/IOS-XE platforms instead.
  • D is wrong because Meraki moves management away from direct on-premises terminal access; it's managed through a cloud dashboard, which is the opposite of in-line terminal access.

Memory tip: Think "Meraki = Magic dashboard." If the customer scenario describes someone who wants simplicity, speed, and visibility without touching hardware or a CLI, that's a Meraki customer. If they want control, customization, or on-prem access, they want something else.
