Akamai All in One Solution

  • July 10, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
In terms of security solutions, Akamai provides many different security solutions depending on the requirement. The highlights here are that all their solutions can work as one meaning all data are consolidated and correlated afterward, giving you the best data for visibility.
What do you dislike about the product?
Akamai is known for acquiring other vendor to add it to their current solutions. The drawback here is that so many added solutions within a short time make it harder to learn and gain expertise on it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Akamai helps protect to secure web traffic within a given environment. It can be through HTTP/HTTPS layer, DNS layer protection and any other protocol residing on Layer 7 of OSI Layer. As a distributor, it helps us to position this product easily because of its offerings. As a user, I can easily manage all these solutions because of a central management system or single pane of glass management available out of the box.

Akamai for business

  • August 13, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Akamia is an industry leader in WAF solutions and their DDOS protection is one of the best services in terms of configuration, very low latency issue, high availability, and cost
their WAF is also integrated with various AST solutions to protect assets and apply patches temporary by integration with AST
Their account takeover protection is also provide advance protection with spoofing attacks
What do you dislike about the product?
Akamia App and API security is a little bit complex to configure and needs some changes in an existing production environment plus minor changes in code and there are some latency issues in production during high traffic
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Akamia provides multiple solutions in a single basket (App and API security, DDOS protection, and account takeover protection), the best thing about Akamia is we can easily integrate it with various application security tools to create rules as soon as a vulnerability is reported so it will act as a temporary patch

It's way costly but definitely worths the price

  • July 23, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Our best alternative for content delivery network is Akamai after Cloudflare. We have a lot of customers for those we have developed custom software, and on each case, Akamai has given us precisely what we need. Also it is quick and simple to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Akamai's preliminary configuration is hard to understand, and the API is difficult to implement. We also encountered initial issues with large pictures and videos struggling to load, which demanded extra development work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use this for Streaming mainly, one of our clients has an online image editing tool, which requires heavy transfers of stock images. We use Akamai for enterprise use only, it offers a robust API to scale and a better solution category.

promiscuous mode

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best part is the caching process. The way it caches in the nearby areas is really worth appreciating. I have been using Akamai CDN since quite a long time i.e. around 5 years till now and its doing great.
What do you dislike about the product?
As of now there is nothing much that I can think of as dislike in Akamai COntent delivery Network i.e. CDN. I believe they can improvise the plans though. But again, its not that necessary. Guys are doing great job
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Like I said, Akamai Content delivery Network i.e. CDN is helping people to fetch data from the internet with lightning-fast speed. It helps organizations to aggregate more and more data in limited amount of time. Proxy services are also of great use

Great Cloud System

  • July 06, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Akamai offers great cloud services with high security measures. It is quick and safe. the uploads run in the background and it is seemless. Their Ddos protection is alsot unparrael with what we use. the security they offer allows us to work without any worries
What do you dislike about the product?
there are times that the cloud system is down and makes for a lag. this does cause a problem once and awhile but it is quite rare it happens. when the issues arise the problems are usually solved within the 1st hour. Overall, it is still 1 of the most reliable services out there.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Akamai has helped reduce our yearly costs significantly. by using one company that offers cloud services and system protection, it has helped us keep our IT fees low and without any worries.

Intuitive, yet easy to onboard and work with

  • June 30, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Akamai is simple to onboard into your environment. The Dashboard is easy to navigate, and reports and overviews into security issues can be accessed quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Web Security was only able to protect ports 80 and 443 sites, so there were sites like Citrix Gateways that I was not able to monitor with Akamai due to the port restrictions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Secures perimeter sites, plus easy access to Edge DNS plus SIEM Collector integration. Increased productivity.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
We switched from Imperva WAF to Akamai and were impressed with how easy it was to integrate.

The best CDN - ever used

  • Review verified by G2

The speed, earlier days - I remember those days where I grab a cup of coffee when a link is clicked and after I come back, I get to see what I wanted. Akamai changed everything into Milliseconds and I've stopped taking coffee during work
What do you dislike about the product?
Akamai's cdn is a wonderful and thoughtful product. There is nothing to dislike unless if somebody wants to be too lazy
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's the speed and security associated with it.
