Sylv3r Posted October 18, 2016 Posted October 18, 2016 I'm guessing it's Meraki MDM your talking about. Registration can be done here. https://meraki.cisco.com/form/systems-manager-signup
sydborn Posted October 18, 2016 Author Posted October 18, 2016 Thanks @Sylv3r Is that free for Schools? and how will I create a new account for a school that has one before but was manage by a service company and want a brand new one that they can manage by themselves? I'm guessing it's Meraki MDM your talking about. Registration can be done here. https://meraki.cisco.com/form/systems-manager-signup
Sylv3r Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 Thanks @Sylv3r Is that free for Schools? and how will I create a new account for a school that has one before but was manage by a service company and want a brand new one that they can manage by themselves? It's free for up to the first 100 clients, as to creating another account, I would just use an alternative e-mail address that was used previously and you should be fine.

Arreks Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 Hi there, Meraki MDM is not free now, there is just a limited trial available or full purchase. regards Lee Well I've been using it for a year and my license says.. [TABLE=class: cfg cfgc, width: 1682] [TR] [TD=class: cfgq]Systems Manager[/TD] [TD=class: cfgs]Enabled (free <= 100 devices)[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE]
Brimstone Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 I think it is still free according to the site....? https://documentation.meraki.com/zGeneral_Administration/Licensing/Systems_Manager_Licensing
tmoon-mint Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 Yeah it is still free as long as you have less than 100 devices. I created a Meraki account this morning and added it to my MSP portal and didn't have any issues.
Rob_D Posted October 25, 2016 Posted October 25, 2016 I've heard conflicting reports about the future of Merak. But according t the tech I spoke to a month or so back, they are starting/ have started to depreciate the free offering. - no updates limited support, and according to him (although no sign of it yet) they will be removing the option to sign up to the free service (people who already have it will still have access, but no new users allowed). This is just what I was told. So if you're thinking about using meraki, it might be worth making an account sooner rather than later, so you've at least got the option.
