Meter —
Vertically Integrated Managed Networking — Hardware, Software & Management

Meter fits enterprise, retail, multi-site and large-office operating models whose internal IT teams cannot absorb the operational burden of designing, procuring, deploying and managing the wired, wireless and security stack across every location — particularly those whose network posture requires fully managed networking under a single vendor with hardware, software and ongoing management bundled together rather than separate equipment, software and managed-service contracts.

Meter delivers vertically integrated managed networking — Meter-designed switches, access points and security appliances; Meter network operating software; deployment and ongoing management; cellular failover; retail-grade and enterprise-grade WiFi; and a unified dashboard — under one bundled service rather than a stack of separately purchased and separately managed equipment, software and services. Coverage scales from large offices to multi-site retail and enterprise footprints.

The traditional stack combines a hardware vendor (separate purchase), software licensing (separate purchase), a VAR or systems integrator (separate procurement), and an MSP or managed-service contract (separate ongoing relationship). Meter delivers all four functions under one service contract — fitting operating models whose IT capacity, vendor-management posture or total-cost-of-ownership cannot absorb four separate vendors for one network.

Yes. Meter publishes retail-specific materials and multi-site deployment posture — fitting retail chain, multi-site enterprise and franchise operating models whose network posture must be consistent across hundreds of locations and whose IT staffing model assumes site visits, equipment refresh, and managed connectivity are handled by the vendor rather than internal teams.

Meter is the network layer running at each site — switches, WiFi, security appliances, software and management. Underlying carrier connectivity (fiber DIA, cable broadband, fixed wireless, cellular failover) sits beneath the Meter network. Fibi can scope carrier connectivity in parallel with the Meter network so the connectivity-and-network stacks are designed together rather than in sequence.

No. Your service agreement is signed directly with Meter and Meter's standard customer terms apply. Fibi's role is to scope your managed-networking objective against Meter and the most relevant alternatives — including traditional Cisco / Aruba / Meraki + VAR + MSP stacks, Cradlepoint and other managed-networking platforms, and carrier-managed network services — so you see how Meter's vertically integrated posture compares before signing. Fibi's advisory work is provider-funded.
