Case Study: Qdoba Mexican Eats achieves simplified cloud-managed networking and $300,000 annual support savings with Cisco Meraki

Qdoba Mexican Eats saves $300,000 a year with Cisco Meraki

Qdoba Mexican Eats, a fast-casual restaurant chain with over 740 locations, faced challenges with an outsourced, multi-vendor legacy network that was complex, inflexible, and led to frequent downtime and high operational costs. To support its growth and improve the guest experience, Qdoba sought a modern, cloud-based solution that could be centrally managed and brought in-house, leading them to partner with Cisco Meraki.

Cisco Meraki implemented a full-stack cloud-managed network using its MR access points, MS switches, MG cellular gateways, and MX security appliances integrated with Cisco Umbrella. This solution provided a secure, reliable network managed from the Meraki dashboard. The results included $300,000 in annual support cost savings, a drastic reduction in issue resolution time, and increased network uptime. Qdoba was able to rapidly deploy the new solution across its restaurants, achieving greater operational simplicity and enhanced security.
