They are also some of the most intelligent people I've found in the network / CDN industry. They have worked with me to build solutions that helped solve a number of scenarios. Most notably is their Image Optimization service that runs along side our image origin to allow for on the fly image changes like size and quality. **What do you dislike about CacheFly?** I wish I had something to share here. Fortunately for CacheFly, I don't. They are all around awesome! Their uptime is stellar, their support team is very responsive, they are very dynamic in adapting to be able to service unique needs, their pricing rates are stellar. I mean I seriously have no problems with them at all! **Recommendations to others considering CacheFly:** If you're working with someone like Cloudflare, Fastly or Akamai (the others I personally have experience with), definitely give CacheFly a call. They offer a far superior product at a competitive price.

Their staff both sales and technical are extremely knowledgeable when it comes to up and coming technologies like Edge Compute. **What do you dislike about CacheFly?** The main CacheFly portal could use and update. It would also be great to be able to set reverse proxy origin via the API, instead of having to log into the portal.
