Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We can see how much traffic can be downloaded on the portal.""The most valuable feature of Akamai is its ease of use and simple integration. Additionally, the solution has new aspects added to it regularly.""The solution's technical support is very good...The installation phase of Akamai was easy.""Akamai provides low-latency throughput.""The solution's most valuable feature is that it has been quite helpful in our company, especially when it comes to applications needing updates frequently.""The solution is very sustainable and flexible.""As of now, the best thing about Akamai is WAF, and though CDN is a good feature, it comes in second place when compared to WAF. I am very impressed with the WAF offered by Akamai.""It's a scalable and reliable solution."

"The control panel is nicely laid out and I do not have to hunt for functionality.""It is extremely easy to set up and integrate with WordPress and purge files as needed through the control panel.""It has improved our organization by providing quick access to resources.""​Purge pages: It is a fast solution for updating my content from all datacenters.""It has helped improve load speed on the site.""I selected CDN77 because it has servers where our different target markets are (some are in Asia)."

More CDN77 Pros →

"I like the user interface. There aren't too many buttons that the audience will have to fiddle with."

More IBM Cloud Video Pros →

Cons
"I'd like to see improvements in log files and data visualizations within the interface.""It would be better if we could be notified about specific attacks.""Local connectivity would be great linked to our own telecom/Cablevision CDN.""Caching strategy is an area with certain shortcomings in the solution where improvements are required.""Akamai could improve by providing its own cloud services. We have to use third-party cloud services at this time, such as Amazon AWS. The offering becomes a lot easier for an SMB if everything was in one single platform to be used for the services.""The product's scalability can be improved since certain shortcomings regarding the security part of the solution currently exist.""Akamai's configuration part is an area of concern where improvements are required to make the process easy.""I'd like to see more Web 3.0 and IoT solutions."

More Akamai Cons →

"If you are a low-use user and not used the minimum credit, it will be lost at end of year unless you upgrade, then you are left with more bandwidth than you can ever use.""A year ago, I had to deal with SEO factors involving duplication of content."

More CDN77 Cons →

"They should improve the registration gateway. Currently, you can't do a pre-event registration that's straightforward. You have to do an API to integrate. It would be a lot easier if they had that."
