vs. Akamai

No	Exium's Cloud-Native SASE: A Clear Choice Over Akamai for MSPs
1	Holistic Security and Networking Platform Exium's Cloud-Native SASE provides MSPs with a multi-tenant, multi-tier solution that seamlessly integrates security and networking for all applications. In contrast, Akamai's focus on CDN and DDoS protection limits its applicability to non-web and legacy apps.
2	SASE and SD-WAN Expertise Exium is designed from the ground up to be a true SASE solution, providing MSPs with the essential capability of Software-Defined Wide Area Networking (SD-WAN). Akamai, however, lacks a genuine SASE offering and cannot provide SD-WAN, relying on point security products with limited functionalities.
3	Security-Focused DNA Exium's commitment to security is inherent, with a purpose-built platform that reflects a dedicated focus on cybersecurity. In contrast, Akamai's security products, leveraging CDN infrastructure, are secondary and may pose a risk due to the company's non-security-focused DNA.
4	Brand Recognition Akamai is not primarily known as a security brand, and its security marketing often reflects CDN-centric terminology. Exium, with its clear focus on security and networking, provides MSPs with a brand recognized for its commitment to comprehensive cybersecurity.
5	User-Friendly Interface Akamai's platform has been criticized for having a daunting and confusing user interface, creating challenges for users to navigate and comprehend functionalities. Exium, on the other hand, boasts an intuitive, easy-to-learn interface for efficient administration and management.
6	Pricing Transparency Akamai's pricing structure has faced dissatisfaction among users, with non-competitive pricing tiers causing frustration. In contrast, Exium offers MSPs a transparent and simple pricing model, ensuring clarity and affordability.
7	Configuration Simplicity Users have reported that Akamai's platform lacks intuitive configuration and requires specialized training. Exium, with its user-friendly design, eliminates the need for extensive training, making it accessible for users with varying levels of expertise.
8	Efficiency and Activation Akamai's activation process has been criticized for its extended duration. In contrast, Exium ensures swift activation, allowing MSPs to provide their clients with fast and effective cybersecurity and networking solutions.
