"A developer friendly Edge compute platform, not just a CDN"
5/5
What do you like best about Fastly Content Delivery?

- Fastly's rich feature set that expand the traditional CDN profile. Its practically an edge compute platform enabling its users to do more `compute` on the edge which results in huge gains on resource allocation and consumption of the downstream platform .

-It has a Developer first approach on its tools, techniques and documentation. Practically is meant to be used by developers directly.

- Great support (I was lucky enough to experience, the paid support models) and I have to admit it was one of the best support experiences ever. The engineers behind it not only made sure to answer all you questions but throught time were educating you about the capabilities of their platform. It was more like an internal training rather than a regular Q&A session.

- Stable platform, I dont remember a single day where I experienced an outage that would affect our platform (as users)

- Fastly delivers on its promise and specifically its performance and availability SLOs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fastly Content Delivery?

- Some years ago, it seemed that there was a gap on very specific features, like WAFs or edge firewalls. I think they have improved in that area and now the integration and solutions provided are more robust! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
