Akamai Technologies Bewertungen 

They block abuse complaints

Have no problems with major financial websites such as banks, insurance and stock holding/brokerage companies plus government sites. Also not Waitrose UNTIL THEY SIGNED UP WITH AKAMAI. Their software seems to be totally unstable. sometimes it challenges and refuses to accept you are human others you do not see it and can get into website. Waitrose could lose a fortune due to these smooth talking incompetents.

A company of virus spreader and DDOSERS

This company targets people around the world with RDP attacks and spreading Trojans and viruses.

Avoid this company..

Websites using their edgesuite firewall garbage lock users out for no reason with "Access Denied", causing them to lose customers. Stay away.

In late July '24, I was targeted by scammers who operated under "TikTOK Online Merchant Shop" and was defrauded to the tune of CAD75,000 (please read ALL my reviews). After hiring an online cyber security company, I discovered that this ISP was (and likely still is) providing it's services to the scam recovery to defraud millions worlwide. An active police investigation was open into the matter and despite this, they kept refusing to share details of these online criminals with me and/or any law enforcement agencies. This is corporate goonery at it's finest that is always out to penalise the common, ordinary people with the most to lose. How I was able to discover that Akamai is in the picture, you ask? Well, see below:

Interesting review from Shane below and disappointing.

I've been with Linode for over 15…
I've been with Linode for over 15 years. I have raved about how good their services etc were . I've even positively reviewed them. Then Akamai took them over.

1 - Hardware / services don't run as quickly. Reboots/ Backups take longer
2 - We have had major outages (never before in 15
years)

Then the kicker - the greedy buggers have decided to play fast and loose with their billing and add an 8-11.6 % increase on just one of our server prices, without telling us, and while hiding it behind changed billing practice,.

We signed up for an 8Gb Linode at $48 per month. Note - $48 per month. We are normally billed on the first of the month. We also have a 4GB linode ($24) plus backups and a small bit of image storage space.
(plus other Linodes under our management too)

Suddenly we are getting billed mid month (15th) and on inquiring it is because we have hit some predefined limit they send a link for in their docs. In 15 years - never had a predefined limit. EVER!!

Then we get billed again on 1st of the month. I noticed the amounts seemed more than I expected so I added the numbers up and found we had been charged over $50 for the $48 linode and more for the others too.

and then I realised what the greedy accountants or bureaucrats or whatever money grubbing pillock had done. They charge for usage at an hourly rate of 0.072 per hour. Normally that number is bandied around as a per month hourly rate for partial monthly use of a linode if you close off your linode before the full month is complete.

Note - we signed up for a $48 per month, not an over $50 per month.

Here is how this new little scam works:
On a 28 day month we will get charged $48.38 at this hourly rate ( 0.072 * 24 * 28) - a 0.80% increase.

On a 30 day month we will get charged $51.84 at this hourly rate ( 0.072 * 24 * 30) - a 8.00% increase.

On a 31 day month we will get charged $53.57 at this hourly rate ( 0.072 * 24 * 31) - a 11.60% increase.

In effect what every akamai stooge who thought this up have managed to increase their charge outs by 8% - 11.6% and hide it behind mid month billings.

Let me be clear - thats literally criminal. We signed a contract for $48 per month. Not $53.59 per month and if it seem like me moaning about $5.00 per month is no big deal - multiply that across the thousands of linode users and see what happens. A stealth = 9.8% increase in profits on average across months with 30 - 31 days ( which is most of them if I remember the calendar correctly. )

Another piece of corporate "goodness" inflicted after taking over an excellent company.

If they are being dishonest here -where else? and then I think about the outages and slowed down responses of the linodes I use. hmmmm!!!!!
