What do you like best about Akamai Secure Access Service Edge (SASE)?

few things I like about Akamai's Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) offering:

Global reach and scale - With thousands of points of presence globally, Akamai can deliver fast, secure access from any location. This is a key advantage of SASE.

Integrated solution - Akamai combines critical networking and security functions like SD-WAN, CASB, ZTNA, SWG, and firewall into a unified solution. This provides better protection than point products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Akamai Secure Access Service Edge (SASE)?

potential downsides to consider about Akamai's Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) offering:

Vendor lock-in risk - Relying entirely on Akamai's global network and services could result in vendor lock-in over time. This makes it difficult to change providers.

Integration challenges - Successfully integrating all networking and security components may be complex to set up and configure initially for some organizations.

Maturity - Though Akamai has been in business for a long time, their unified SASE solution is still a new model. There may be less long-term usage data and best practices compared to some point products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
