[Star Wars] Why don't the Separatists use wedge shaped cruisers?

Using a wedge shape design allows a ship to focus all its weapons on a target in front of the ship.  Wouldn't other factions want to exploit this feature?

Because it is much cheaper to convert a freighter into a battleship/carrier than to build a custom warship. Early separatist warships were converted trade federation freighters.

As they built warships the dreadnought cruiser was smaller (and cheaper to build) than the republic star destroyers but has a comparable broadside, and is better defended in the rear than a wedge.
