It has too many options and can be complex for SMBs to utilize.""The product's scalability can be improved since certain shortcomings regarding the security part of the solution currently exist."

More Akamai Cons →

"A year ago, I had to deal with SEO factors involving duplication of content.""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."

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."
