The reason it's free and with unlimited bandwidth is that it's not.

Unless you stay very small, you'll eventually get on the radar of the sales team and you'll realize the service is neither unlimited nor free. In fact, you'll likely have to look at a 5 or 6-figure contract to remain on the service.

(n = 1 & all) A project I co-develop pushed 30TB to 60TB per month on Cloudflare Workers in the past (for months on end) for $0. No one called us to sign 6 figure contracts.

I can second this. Their sales people have such poor behaviour that I am considering moving away simply on principle. There is nothing predictable about being on an enterprise contract and they will hit you with bullshit overage charges like using too many dns requests (wtf??) all of a sudden to force you onto a much larger contract. On the 28th of December no less ! We have used them for a very long time but I am having very big doubts about how much we can use them in the future even though their products are great.

      Big +1 for Bunny.net - I moved my current company to Bunny and it's been excellent. Super fast (for our PoPs at least), reasonable pricing, love the image optimizer & edge rules (especially for solving header issues when embedding documents), has a Terraform provider, and I was able to set most of it up in a day. Was a night and day difference from GCP's Cloud CDN

      We use Bunny, and it’s been solid and super inexpensive. None of my production issues have ever been due to Bunny.
