What happened
For our traffic profile Akamai has been rock solid and the account team knows our estate properly, which matters during an incident. The interface is a product of its long history and some tasks need a support ticket that competitors would let you self-serve. If you need bulletproof at very large scale it remains a defensible choice.
Worked well
Reliability at scale. Account team knows the estate. Strong bot management.
Did not
Interface shows its age. Some changes need support involvement. Premium pricing.
