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.

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.

While Akamai Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) has many strengths, there are a few aspects that I find less favorable. One notable concern is the cost, as it can be relatively high for some organizations. Additionally, the setup process can be complex, requiring a learning curve for our team.

Its access control to applications is really fast, has good performance, in addition to having good performance response in the business network, it has good security understanding denial of DDos attacks and point-to-point security for access to external sources, and its control panel provides graphs and analysis to understand the status of processes and access to websites and applications.

The downside of Akamai is its price, the cost of the service is set at a business quality level and for this reason, its high price increases, only being used in large companies. Additionally, the price can vary depending on usage, but if you want to use the full service, it generates a somewhat high cost, creating an impediment for use by small companies with limited budgets.
