Companies Using Akamai mPulse

Our live crawl finds Akamai mPulse on 46,730 domains, resolving to 22,744 identifiable companies. Named users include Deloitte, McDonald's, Infosys, IBM and PwC. The base is consumer-facing: retail is the largest industry at 6.97% and restaurants second at 5.57%, reflecting where page speed has a direct revenue consequence.

We detect 46,730 domains running Akamai mPulse across our monthly crawl of live business domains. Company data could be matched for 22,744 of them (48.7%), and every company-size, industry and country breakdown on this page describes that matched subset rather than the full detected base. A further 14,970 domains carried a Akamai mPulse detection previously and no longer do.

Akamai mPulse holds 1.82% of our APM & Error Tracking category and ranks 7th of 50 tracked technologies. Share is counted by distinct domains, so Sentry's free error SDK dominates at 71.99%. Among licensed real user monitoring products specifically, mPulse's standing is considerably stronger than the category rank suggests.

The closest substitutes are New Relic (226,775 domains) and Datadog (148,622), both of which offer real user monitoring alongside backend observability. Sentry leads the category at 1,851,998 domains but competes on error tracking rather than performance monitoring, and its lead comes from free open-source distribution.

The United States leads at 51.47% of matched companies (11,192), followed by the United Kingdom at 6.71% (1,458), India at 4.13% (897), Canada at 3.56% (774) and Germany at 3.17% (690). The Indian share runs above our corpus norm, reflecting the systems integrators prominent in the named list.

The raw distribution shows 50.86% of matched domains at 1 to 10 employees, which reflects deployment rather than purchasing. Large organisations apply mPulse across brand, campaign and regional domains that resolve to small local entities. Organisations above 1,000 employees account for 9.06% of matched domains, and that is where the licence sits.

Companies founded in the 2010s are the largest group at 31.56% of matched customers, followed by the 2000s at 16.23%, those founded before 1960 at 14.74% and the 2020s at 12.68%. The base is younger than most enterprise monitoring tools, which follows from the consumer-commerce weighting in the industry data.

The ideal Akamai mPulse customer is: Company Size: 1-50 employees, Location: US, UK, or India, Founded: 2010s, Industry: Retail, restaurants, government — based on our analysis of 22,744 enriched companies at TechnologyChecker.io.

We detect mPulse on 46,730 domains as of our August 2026 crawl, of which 22,744 match to a named company. Because mPulse is typically licensed once and deployed across many brand and regional domains, the number of distinct paying customers is considerably lower than the domain count.

Retail leads at 6.97% of matched domains, followed by Restaurants at 5.57%, Real Estate at 4.02%, Government Administration at 3.91% and Hospitality at 3.54%. Retail, restaurants and hospitality together are 16.08%, which is where page performance maps most directly onto revenue.

We match several mPulse-specific signals: the s.go-mpulse.net script host, the BOOMR_API_key JavaScript object, the boomr script elements mPulse injects, and an Akamai A/B testing cookie. All require the agent to be loading on a page we crawled, so a detection means mPulse is actively running there.

Boomerang is the open-source performance library that Akamai maintains; mPulse is the commercial product built on it. Almost every mPulse domain also matches the generic Boomerang signature, because mPulse ships that library. Our separate Boomerang count is therefore largely mPulse deployments plus a smaller number of standalone open-source users.

Google Tag Manager appears on 81.15% of mPulse domains and Google Analytics on 76.27%. The most diagnostic figure is the Akamai CDN itself on 53.52%, so just over half of deployments sit behind Akamai's edge. Adobe Experience Platform Launch on 49.17% marks the enterprise marketing segment within the list.

Yes, and it runs in both directions. We recorded 1,613 domains arriving from New Relic and 1,566 from Datadog, against 1,449 and 1,298 moving the other way. We tested these before publishing: domains that dropped mPulse carry New Relic at 9.67% and Datadog at 8.67%, against 5.63% and 3.46% of domains that kept it, so the destinations really are over-represented among leavers.
