Why Choose LoginRadius Over Akamai Identity Cloud?

Modern Authentication & Passwordless

Akamai Identity Cloud lacks native passwordless and modern MFA support.
LoginRadius provides FIDO2 passkeys, push notifications, adaptive MFA, and risk-based controls — all built-in.

Branding & Customization

Janrain offers limited branding flexibility.
LoginRadius gives you full control — headless architecture, hosted pages, branded UIs, and even white-label authenticator apps.

Orchestration & Multi-tenancy

Akamai Identity Cloud policy engine is rigid.
LoginRadius enables no-code orchestration, event-driven webhooks, and native multi-tenancy — so you can adapt flows across regions, brands, and use cases.

Analytics & Compliance

With LoginRadius you get real-time identity analytics, anomaly detection, and granular audit logs.
Compliance with GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, and SOC 2 Type II comes standard.

Validated by Experts, Chosen by Enterprises

Leading analysts like KuppingerCole have named LoginRadius a leader in CIAM — recognizing its strength in scalability, flexible deployment options, and compliance for global enterprises.
