Akamai Technologies has announced that Akamai App & API Protector has been named a Customers’ Choice in the 2025 Gartner Peer Insights “Voice of the Customer” for Cloud Web Application and API Protection (WAAP).
This marks the sixth consecutive year Akamai has been recognized as a Customers’ Choice, with 99% of customers saying they would recommend the solution (99% of 133 overall reviews as of July 2025).
Gartner defines WAAP as a category of security solutions designed to protect web applications and APIs from different types of attacks, irrespective of the hosting location. The “Voice of the Customer” report consolidates peer reviews from verified end users, offering a trusted perspective for IT decision-makers.
“Our goal is simple: protect our customers’ most critical applications and APIs wherever they do business,” said Rupesh Chokshi, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Application Security at Akamai. “In my opinion, being named a Customers’ Choice once again — based entirely on customer feedback — is a true testament to the trust our users place in us.”
