Overall Satisfaction with Akamai Bot Manager
We helped one of our customers implement Akamai Bot Manager in their main website (including e-Commerce) to avoid scrapers and malicious internet traffic coming from all over the world. It also helped increase the website performance by serving cached content to bots that tried breaking standard caching rules.
- Bot detection
- Good selection of actions in case of bot detection
- Easy implementation of its standard features
- Bots are created all the time, so sometimes the heuristics used by the solution can detect false positives
- For Mobile Apps, you need and external SDK (Akamai BMP)
- Big Database of known bots
- Action selection for each bot
- Reduce overall infrastructure maintenance due to less incoming traffic and leverage of caching rules
- Better user experience on the website due to better overall performance
