"Dont buy Microsoft Azure CDN if you want hassle free devops"
What do you like best about Azure Content Delivery Network?

The only thing I liked about the Microsoft Azure CDN is the massive scalability, all the other things except the scalability are shit. Worst performance and shitty user experience, though it will be cheaper of no use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Content Delivery Network?

There are a lot of things that no one will like, first the performance which didn't support your application, then comes the user experience you need to go here and there for a small function. So overall I totally dislike MS Azure CDN. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Incredible CDN and modest"
What do you like best about Azure Content Delivery Network?

Extraordinary CDN and cheaplets you decrease load times, save transmission capacity and speed responsiveness—regardless of whether you are creating or overseeing sites or portable applications or encoding and appropriating streaming media, gaming programming, firmware updates or IoT endpoints.

The advantages of utilizing Azure CDN to convey site resources include: Better execution and improved client experience for end clients, particularly when utilizing applications in which numerous trips there and back are needed to stack content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Content Delivery Network?

To get immediate help, you need to buy a help plan beginning from 29 USD every month.

Costs in different suppliers like Backblaze B2 are less expensive (around 0.005 USD per GB/month) for Standard access

All the diverse stockpiling choices wind up being confounding. It's not straight-forward for a tenderfoot to realize when to utilize Blob administration over File administration, for instance. As I would like to think, Amazon AWS and Google Cloud Storage make a superior showing clarifying and streamlining the contribution Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A flexible and affordable platform for cloud computing services."
What do you like best about Azure Content Delivery Network?

There's a lot of great stuff about Azure. but one of my favorites is the speed at which you can boost up new websites, servers, or even digital devices is incredible. In moments, you can do what it takes you time to do on-page. It is also very easy to set up connectivity between services. There are options inside each integrated object that you can customize. These options make it much easier to easily customize your services in the best way possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Content Delivery Network?

What I like least about this system is that I feel it has a very straightforward and clear pricing structure. It's really hard to work out what a new change is going to do to affect your subscription pricing. You've got to assume a little of what you think is going to happen or where you think you're going to find out how you can afford to upgrade more options. It should not be like this. The interface still leaves a lot of room for improvement. They've just upgraded it, but it's probably contributing to the ambiguity. There are so many boxes and flyouts to explore, it's difficult to find out what tools you're accessing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Solution for e-Commerce plaform"
What do you like best about Azure Content Delivery Network?

We started using Azure CDN by a requirement that made the department eCommerce company. To use one of the platforms where we published our online stores we requested that the images were hosted on a dedicated server images to display them properly froma web.

For this reason we decided to use Azure CDN, to thereby have two advantages: having its own image storage service in the cloud plus all the benefits of a CDN network.

Having the images distributed according to the proximity of the user, the platform achieved a much higher performance, allowing our customers to access the images of our products much faster.

We can also offer e-commerce department third-party tools for Llos themselves could upload online photographs of our products.

What do you dislike about Azure Content Delivery Network?

With respect to the negative things I could name the complexity of implementation. While it was not a very difficult task is quite confusing process for the CDN platform is configured correctly. The steps are few but confused when implemented. It should improve slightly this.

One point that should be corrected is to provide tools for uploading and downloading of images from the blob of Azure CDN. The administration of the images has to be done with third party tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
