Criminal pricing update for great software
We use it to resize images and transform them on our website and through emails. It's a very useful way to manipulate images that are stored within Amazon S3 buckets.The uptime is perfect, the manipulation tools are first class and the support is very good.

Useful for pixel perfect image delivery without storing dozens of image sizes per image
Running WordPress based sites, the standard way to present images is to create a set of different 'thumbnails' - however, generating these thumbnails can add server load, and they can take a lot of storage. You also don't have a perfect image served for every screen pixel density. With imgix we're able to request perfectly sized images that - this is especially important for Design Week, where we are presenting images to a very visual audience.
Support is generally excellent.
To make it work really well we developed out own integration - there is a standard plugin, but it's not flexible enough for what we wanted to do.

Software Engineer at SufgaGreat on-the-fly image resizing and optimization service
I like Imgix because it's quick, easy, and hassle-free to resize images on the fly. The service is also fast and reliable, and I haven't had any issues with it being unavailable except once during Fastly unavailability in the summer of 2021. It's good value-for-money for small to medium projects and easy to set up and use. Plus, it integrates easily with any object store service I use, like S3 or Google Cloud Storage. The documentations are also good, and it has good security by allowing us to optionally sign all image URLs with a secret, which prevents abuse.
