We stay vendor-agnostic — always. But every so often a product redefines how a category works. Meter is that for enterprise networking. Hardware, software, ISP, and cellular on one subscription, one bill, one dashboard. We're genuinely excited about what they've built — and we recommend it often, because it fits a lot of environments. When it doesn't, we'll tell you that too.
Meter doesn't sell hardware. They build the full vertical stack — their own hardware, their own software, their own ISP connectivity, and their own cellular backup — and deliver it as a single monthly subscription.
No more mismatched hardware from three vendors, managed through two separate portals, with a support ticket that bounces between both when something breaks. Meter is one vendor, one invoice, one support call.
It scales from a single office to thousands of locations — with multi-site management built into the same dashboard from day one.
Next-generation firewall with built-in high availability
Multi-gig access and core switching with PoE++
Wi-Fi 7 tri-band wireless with enterprise-grade RF management
5G cellular gateway for primary or failover WAN
Unified cloud management for every site, every device
AI-driven network management and configuration generation
We've evaluated a lot of networking vendors. Here's what consistently sets Meter apart.
Meter designs and manufactures their own hardware — they're not re-labeling someone else's switches. That vertical integration means better performance, faster software updates, and support that actually understands the full stack.
Meter's firewalls, DNS security, NIDS, and VLAN management are part of the base platform — not add-on modules. Security posture improves as part of the network refresh, not as a separate initiative.
Meter's dashboard was designed for multi-site management from the start — not retrofitted. Managing 5 locations looks the same as managing 500. Perfect for distributed enterprises, retail chains, and property management portfolios.
Hardware, software, support, and lifecycle management on a single subscription. No surprise refresh costs, no separate software licensing, no support tiers to navigate. Predictable OpEx instead of lumpy CapEx.
Meter handles network design, configuration, and installation — or works with partners like Carrier Hub to do it. Sites go live faster because the hardware arrives pre-configured and the software is already waiting.
Meter Command lets network admins generate configurations and troubleshoot in plain language. Less time in CLI, more time on work that matters. Recognized by Gartner as a differentiator in the 2026 Magic Quadrant.
Not every environment is the right fit. Here's where Meter consistently delivers the strongest ROI.
Distributed operations with 5+ locations where consistent network policy, centralized visibility, and multi-site management matter. Retail, hospitality, real estate, and professional services are natural fits.
If your switching and wireless was deployed 5+ years ago, you're probably on an outdated platform with limited cloud management. A Meter deployment replaces the full stack in one motion, on a predictable monthly cost.
If your security review identified gaps in your network perimeter, Meter's built-in firewall, DNS security, and VLAN segmentation address them as part of the infrastructure refresh — not as a separate line item.
Opening new locations? Meter's pre-configured hardware and cloud management scale without adding IT headcount. New sites can be deployed and brought online without sending a network engineer on site.
Capital expenditure cycles for networking hardware can be painful. Meter's subscription model converts the investment to predictable monthly operating expense — easier to budget, easier to scale.
Small IT teams or MSP-managed environments benefit most from Meter's unified management, automated configuration, and Meter-handled lifecycle support. Less to manage, more visibility into what's running.
We're not just a referral link — and we're not paid to push Meter on everyone. As a certified partner, we evaluate your environment first. If Meter is the right fit, we manage the whole process. If it isn't, we'll tell you that and find what is.
We start by understanding your current network — number of sites, existing hardware, current ISP relationships, and pain points. We evaluate whether Meter is genuinely the right fit or whether another solution serves you better.
We work with Meter's team to design the right hardware configuration for each site — switch port counts, AP placement, firewall sizing, cellular backup strategy — and present a full proposal with pricing.
We coordinate the rollout, manage installation logistics, and stay involved as your point of contact for ongoing support. You get Meter's platform and Carrier Hub's advisory relationship — not a one-time transaction.
We'll assess your environment, tell you honestly whether Meter is the right call, and if it is, manage the deployment from end to end. No cost, no obligation.
