This can really help with small businesses in their initial phases. Free custom SSL. Slick interface, Real-time stats and logs, excellent (and fast) support. **What do you dislike about KeyCDN?** I found the documentation a little hard to follow.

KeyCDN is really a good CDN service supporting HSTS, HTTP/2 **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Abhishek G. | RC Ghosh Group of Companies, Capital Markets, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 22, 2016 **What do you like best about KeyCDN?** They have all possible practical features for the HTTP/2 HSTS websites. Easy usage of SFTP software, rsync. Logs. **What do you dislike about KeyCDN?** One time upfront payment. They possibly need a pay as you go plan. Lack of own anycast network. Limit of 5 zones. Raw log not available to block from server side with own rules. **Recommendations to others considering KeyCDN:** Any level of user can use KeyCDN from desktop, using their web GUI, from SSH, via front end, backend web softwares. As I said -- we had to migrate from host to host, it was not easy with lot of websites, business specific things, huge data. **What problems is KeyCDN solving and how is that benefiting you?** We have multiple accounts. For public usage, one can check my technology blog https://thecustomizewindows.com on webpagetest. Our that website needed a faster CDN. We used all possible CDN over past 5 years. ### 13. Content Delivery At a Great Price **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Carlos T. | Analista de Sistemas, Program Development, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 21, 2016 **What do you like best about KeyCDN?** KCDN may look like a brand new cdn service, but talking from experience it's a really good one. It offers some of the major features you would need from a cdn and the pricing is simple and let's you save money on by not paying for things you won't use (unlike maxcdn). It has a very neat user interface and dead simple zone editing. **What do you dislike about KeyCDN?** For very small projects the trial may be a little short. So we prefer cloudflare in this case. **Recommendations to others considering KeyCDN:** Use to the trail to test the features you need most, i assure you that you will love it once you see how easy it is to get started. **What problems is KeyCDN solving and how is that benefiting you?** Content delivery, caching and ddos protection. Easy dns zone managing and easy to use user interface. ### 14. Good speed **Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospitality | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 11, 2017 **What do you like best about KeyCDN?** Good speed and affordable service. Very good **What do you dislike about KeyCDN?** the expiry dates of the credit 1 year. which they dont really tell you when you initially top up. **What problems is KeyCDN solving and how is that benefiting you?** speedier website ### 15. Just an average CDN provider **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Akram Hasan S. | CTO, Computer & Network Security, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 31, 2016 **What do you like best about KeyCDN?** Was using a trial account with them for a month. Experience wasn't that delighted to mention. Guess they offered and has many incredible features and because of their poor documentation they couldn't bring that on spotlight. Honestly they has more feature then most of in the market. And those features focused on DNS management most. Price was reasonable but depends on usage, this is not very pleasant for enterprise websites. Whoever wants to have total control over their DNS zones, this service will be the best. **What do you dislike about KeyCDN?** Poor documentation and not very beginner friendly. Zone changing takes more time then others. **Recommendations to others considering KeyCDN:** If you are a pro with DNS management and love to play with API mechanism. KeyCDN will be the best for you. ### 16. I have found the cheapest, and fastest CDN for any company, or any size! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ben M. | Marketing Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 01, 2015 **What do you like best about KeyCDN?** 1) The Pricing The #1 factor I love about KeyCDN would be, hands down, their pricing. If you have a small budget (like me) or if you have a corporate budget, both works great with KeyCDN with their "Pay as you GO" pricing. You only pay what you use for, instead of a monthly subscription payments. At the lowest price on the web of $0.04/GB; I made my mind up this was the company to stick with! 2) Expandable (Grows as your grow) You only pay for what you use is extremely important when you start off small. You save money and only spend what is necessary. As I get more money in, I can afford to pay more money out. 3) Free SSL (Huge plus for me) I love to see my https on my blog. Thanks for using Cloudflare and now KeyCDN, all of my site loads on the https protocol and it didn't cost me but pennies. I'm a firm believer that https should be the default for new websites being made. It makes sense, it's more secure, and it's just awesome. 4) Nobody can beat KeyCDN's current model I can honestly say, after a week of researching and comparing prices and benefits with CDN companies, no one currently beats KeyCDN because of the benefits I've listed above. Pricing, Free SSD optimized servers, POP Edge Servers, Free SSL, and it's expandable. You can grow your CDN bandwidth with your business growth. **What do you dislike about KeyCDN?** 1) Limit of 5 zones for free This is more of a neutral for me. When I compare the fact I get 5 zones for free from KeyCDN to other companies, I see it's more than what the competition is giving, but it's still a downer to me since I use multiple websites (over 10.) So it's not a huge deal but it's still worth mentioning. Extra zones over the limit 5 is $1 from your account balance every recurring month. 2) Not advertised enough I honestly think KeyCDN could win over thousands if not millions of customers from other CDN companies just because they offer a better business model. I really think if KeyCDN was to start advertising campaigns that were modern and aimed towards webmasters around the web, they could get more business. So I dislike that it took me this long to find them. I would have joined them a long time ago if only I saw an ad earlier! **Recommendations to others considering KeyCDN:** Give it a shot and you won't regret it! I believe they still offer a free trial to new users without even needing your payment information. Once you implement it, you can see drastic speed improvements. I know I did! If you do have questions, give them an email and I'm sure they'll try to help you out best they can. I've had to email them a couple of times about questions, and typically got an answer back within 24 hours on business days. ### 17. One of the CDN services out there KeyCDN **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Eduardo S. | Web Programmer, Wholesale, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 09, 2016 **What do you like best about KeyCDN?** It's a powerful cdn service just like maxCDN for a fraction of the price. It's cheaper because it lack some of maxCDN included features, but those are optional for a lot of people so the trade is ok. **What do you dislike about KeyCDN?** It could use some minor improvements in support service. Other than that it's a great service to use for small and big projects. **Recommendations to others considering KeyCDN:** Try it before buying so you can have a real experience with the service. **What problems is KeyCDN solving and how is that benefiting you?** Content delivery mostly. ### 18. KeyCDN the best competitor of maxCDN **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Delimer G. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 22, 2016 **What do you like best about KeyCDN?** Keycdn is almost like maxcdn (i talk this way because i used maxcdn before using keycdn) it's full of features and is cheaper! They offer free secure tokens, origin shield and they even block bots attacking your site. The monthly fee is also cheaper. **What do you dislike about KeyCDN?** Nothing to dislike keycdn should grow well as they are doing right now. **Recommendations to others considering KeyCDN:** Use the trial and check if it fits your needs. **What problems is KeyCDN solving and how is that benefiting you?** Content caching, site protection, content delivery , site speed up. ### 19. A budget CDN. Good for projects with a tight budget. **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 22, 2016 **What do you like best about KeyCDN?** As far as I know, they're one of the cheapest CDNs out there. Their service does the trick, specially if the project you need it for has a tight budget. They now also provide free SSL certificates with an easy integration powered by the Let's Encrypt project, which is a nice feature. **What do you dislike about KeyCDN?** Unlike other competitors, they don't run their own anycasted network or own any hardware. Instead they just rely on DNS to pick the nearest point of presence based on IP geolocation, which is quite often inaccurate. Amazon CloudFront for example makes use of both technologies, which in my humble opinion is the best technical approach. **Recommendations to others considering KeyCDN:** Pick KeyCDN if you are on a budget and need a CDN that does the job, despite it's not the best one in terms of performance. Also keep in mind that they don't own any infrastructure nor use anycast technology, so they're not as reliable as other CDN providers. But you know, you get what you pay for. **What problems is KeyCDN solving and how is that benefiting you?** Our customer needed a cheap CDN for a video content website funded by advertising. Since they don't have end-users paying for the service, their CDN fits both their budget and expected user experience. ### 20. Great CDN for this price **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Mohit B. | Student Assistant, Higher Education, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 11, 2016 **What do you like best about KeyCDN?** The best feature of this CDN is there is no minimum price which make it really affordable for startups who are just experimenting with CDNs. There are many features which comes free with it like HTTP2 and secure token. **What do you dislike about KeyCDN?** If your company is getting bigger then this CDN would not be able to complete your requirments because according to me its built for small startups. **Recommendations to others considering KeyCDN:** Would recommend this to startups **What problems is KeyCDN solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are digital marketing company and KeyCDN gave us really great visualization data around the world. ### 21. Devops using keycdn for some customers **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Chakib C. | Devops, Internet, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 16, 2016 **What do you like best about KeyCDN?** Great support Support for latest technologies as http2 Best point: free and automatic ssl deoloyment **What do you dislike about KeyCDN?** Need more pops over the world, for example in France keycdn has only one pop in paris **Recommendations to others considering KeyCDN:** Great support, easy to admin **What problems is KeyCDN solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are webperf expert, so we helps users to have a fast website and improve user experience. CDN helps us to reduce latency and put content as close as possible to users. ## KeyCDN Discussions - [What is KeyCDN used for?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-is-keycdn-used-for) - [View KeyCDN pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/keycdn/reviews?page=2§ion=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-07-21+08%3A25%3A05+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=3b2a893e-c379-42df-a8e1-c0954daffcda&secure%5Btoken%5D=93efffdef24df7f29b58e786fc4a731c535417e1f0f4c9a1f44060ab52187ec4&format=llm_user) ## KeyCDN Features **Content** - Static Content Caching - Dynamic Content Routing - Cache purging **Data Types** - Autonomous System Numbers (ASN) - Geolocation - Internet Service Provider (ISP) - Carrier - Virtual Private Networks (VPN) **Agentic AI - Content Delivery Network (CDN)** - Proactive Assistance **Security** - SSL - Custom SSL **Integrations ** - Enrichment - Automation - Marketing **Management** - Dashboard - Reports - Logs **Data Availability** - OSINT Blocklists - Data Updates - Data Exports **Integration** - API - CMS Integration ## Top KeyCDN Alternatives - [Cloudflare Application Security and Performance](https://www.g2.com/products/cloudflare-application-security-and-performance/reviews) - 4.5/5.0 (599 reviews) - [Bunny CDN](https://www.g2.com/products/bunny-cdn/reviews) - 4.8/5.0 (498 reviews) - [Amazon CloudFront](https://www.g2.com/products/amazon-cloudfront/reviews) - 4.4/5.0 (183 reviews)
