I'm the founder and project coordinator for DFWFreeNet (http://www.dfwfreenet.org), a community wireless network in the Dallas / Ft. Worth, TX area. I have been evaultaing Open-Mesh hardware to replace our current Meraki infrastructure. One of our largest network segments has been migrated to Open-Mesh and the test has gone well so far. There are a few featuers that Meraki offers that Open-Mesh doesn't, although the Open-Mesh software/routers are a lot more flexible, open and it wouldn't be difficult to add own featuers. You can even host your own Dashboard on your own servers (OrangeMesh) rather than using their hosted solution. The new wall plug covers are very nice and make for a clean and professional install. Overall I would highly recommend Open-Mesh.

Do they still offer the 3 billing plans? How much do they charge to handle the transaction, because I believe Meraki charges 20%. Thanks in advance, Sam How does open-mesh differ from Meraki other than costs? Do they still offer the 3 billing plans?
