The control panel is nicely laid out and I do not have to hunt for functionality

I manage about 25 websites, which have a lot of imagery. Most of the sites use WordPress I selected CDN77 because it has servers where our different target markets are (some are in Asia). It is extremely easy to set up and integrate with WordPress and purge files as needed through the control…

Offers an edge and shield configuration, enhancing security and performance and integrates seamlessly with deployed pipelines, allowing for configuration as code

Fastly's instant purging feature improved our content monitoring processes. One of the differences between CloudFront and Fastly is the time to purge. So, Fastly's time to purge is very quick. And we've automated it with some front-end API calls. We've even integrated it with Slack so that we can push that clearing of content to a Telstra approach. So the content developer or the person who has the issue with the stale content can actually be empowered to clear their own cache without having to go through someone with the appropriate permissions. So, the fact that we can expose that with API calls is pretty good. Moreover, I can see service history and service metrics. So, it's mostly metrics and historical data. For example, how many times do specific properties have the highest rate of, say, 500 errors or something? Moreover, Fastly helps our company manage a traffic spike during some high-traffic attempts if we have any. Fastly's request collapsing is their secret sauce, and you get that with Varnish. That's really their massive value proposition, and that they in high traffic spike, even if we have our caching configuration low, it still protects our origin from a big traffic stop because we only get, like, one request coming in. Because that's what they do. They collapse the request such that we might get a thousand people asking for the same piece of data that's not in the cache, but they don't come at us with a thousand requests, the origin. They send one request to the origin and then wait for it to come back, and then they populate the sibling characters with that answer. So it's a sort of table state functionality that they provide that is really key to their value proposition.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Purge pages: It is a fast solution for updating my content from all datacenters."

"The control panel is nicely laid out and I do not have to hunt for functionality."

"I selected CDN77 because it has servers where our different target markets are (some are in Asia)."

"It has improved our organization by providing quick access to resources."

"It has helped improve load speed on the site."

"It is extremely easy to set up and integrate with WordPress and purge files as needed through the control panel."

"Rate limiting is a good feature that protects from volumetric attacks."

"Support is good; the product works as advertised. We have a Slack connection with them. So we can basically ask for help, live, engage, and ring when they respond. Very quickly."

"Compute@Edge features are valuable to me."

"Its initial setup process is straightforward."

"Fastly uses configuration versioning, where you can deploy a new version in less than one minute."

"The product helps our organization to access sites located in different regions quickly."

Cons

"A year ago, I had to deal with SEO factors involving duplication of content."

"If you are a low-use user and not used the minimum credit, it will be lost at end of year unless you upgrade, then you are left with more bandwidth than you can ever use."

"Support is not that great."

"It is missing a "staging" platform to deploy a test configuration with all of the real settings, which would allow us to properly test before putting it into production."

"Fastly's customer service area needs improvement."

"The solution's pricing could be better."

"The product should provide improved bot detection and management."

"Stronger analytics would be helpful, like showing configurations that haven't served a certain amount of traffic in a while. With many properties, things can get lost track of - duplicates or unused configurations not properly decommissioned."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would suggest low usage cases that there are other options available, such as WordPress's own CDN."

"For low-use users, it can be more expensive than it seems. It would be a disadvantage for a lot of hobby users."

"Regarding the pricing, it is expensive. It may not suit others. I suggest a lower recharge level and also to remove the credit expiry time."

"I've generally found Fastly to be very competitive in pricing, especially around Compute@Edge."

"In my opinion, Fastly is priced competitively."

"The pricing has been very competitive."

"The solution is cheaper than other products in the market."

"Fastly is less expensive than one of its competitors."

"It is an expensive solution."
