Chose Cloudimage
We chose Cloudimage for the value for money, and the ability to link with our own hosting.
Chose Cloudimage
We don't like the new pricing scheme for imgix at all. We could have gone from 100 USD / month to 500 USD / month because they price based on source image (we had 50, 000). With Cloudimage, the pricing is based on source image cache (gigabytes) and CDN bandwidth (gigabytes).
Chose Cloudimage
So apparently I can't select the options. I have tried, but the only other one we seriously looked at was Piio. A couple of others we evaluated (for such a brief time) were similar to Piio, and didn't really cover what we needed. Piio (and others) don't tick all the boxes we …

Chose StackPath Edge Delivery
When we identified the need for having a Content Delivery Network to improve our website loading performance we researched a bit and found StackPath. Reading its reviews and the info on its website we have found that they had everything we needed so we didn't need to look for …
Chose StackPath Edge Delivery
Better CDN pricing than Amazon CloudFront and Fastly. We knew Akamai was expensive but it is the best when it comes to content and application delivery. For CDN and Object Storage, it is easier to setup and manage than AWS. Fastly offers different services than StackPath and …
Chose StackPath Edge Delivery
  1. Total solution (CDN, WAF, monitoring, DNS hosting) which offers me a turn-key solution.
  2. Power customer portal which empowers to configure my service performance.
  3. Clear and granular service packages that meet my budget.
Chose StackPath Edge Delivery
Cloudflare is the market leader, specifically with Workers. StackPath is mainly compatible with Workers, so it's really nice that you can use (mostly) the same code to deploy to both. Workers is a more mature product.

AWS Lambda@Edge with CloudFront is more frustrating to use. …

Use it if you have a ton of source images and need many transformations. Don't use it if you only want to serve a few image[s] to a very very large number of users (CDN bandwidth costs)

It is great as a primary or backup CDN. We have had no issues with performance. The cache hit ratio is high. Some of the options are hidden within the API and you have to configure them with API calls, such as configuring signed fetch requests to an S3 origin. These should be in CLI or Web Console. The deployment of edge side scripts with the CLI or CI/CD could be improved.
