User Testimonials
	Imperva CDN	StackPath Edge Delivery
Likelihood to Recommend	Imperva, a Thales company I recommend it as a WAF, but not as a CDN. There are better CDNs, in my case I use transparentCDN (now www.transparentedge.eu) and Edgecast (now Verizon CDN). Incentivized EA Edu Ard Sysadmin Read full review	StackPath Well suited to: Startups - Very competitive pricing, better than AWS for object storage and CDN. The less technical - for those looking to implement a CDN, it doesn't get any easier than StackPath The more technical - Well documented API, serverless scripting and container deployments Fast object delivery - StackPath tends to be faster (sometimes much more ) than AWS S3. See below however... Not so well suited to: Multi-tiered web applications Ultra high bandwidth requirements. Stackpath isn't meant to be a substitute for AWS or Azure when you're looking to push 100s of TBs of traffic. Object storage works well if you don't need fine-grained bucket lifecycle or permissions management. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Imperva, a Thales company Reliability / Uptime Security Incentivized Josh Dix Systems Administrator Read full review	StackPath Price competitive. Easy to use. Good reporting. Quick to deploy. Start-up friendly. Good technical information via blog, FAQ and community discussion. I can talk to real person for urgent support. Incentivized Andre Cheung CEO & Founder Read full review
Cons	Imperva, a Thales company CDN functionalities are secondary and cannot be compared to a top-level CDN. The WebGUI interface of the dashboard is very improvable. They have been changing the UX for years and it is disjointed and with services that have not yet been migrated. The analysis of WAF attack logs is insufficient. It is difficult to analyze attacks of past hours, event filters are missing. It is complicated to analyze the chronology of an attack. There are extra modules to improve the attack logs analysis but they are expensive and add little. Incentivized EA Edu Ard Sysadmin Read full review	StackPath Analytics. Many options hidden in API. Web console. Incentivized Jason Byrne Vice President Of Engineering Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Imperva, a Thales company Also TransparentCDN (now www.transparentedge.eu ) and Level 3 Incentivized EA Edu Ard Sysadmin Read full review	StackPath When we identified the need for having a Content Delivery Network to improve our website loading performance we researched a bit and found StackPath. Reading its reviews and the info on its website we have found that they had everything we needed so we didn't need to look for other products. Incentivized CC Carlos Coque System Administrator Read full review
Return on Investment	Imperva, a Thales company It's an expensive product if you have a lot of traffic volume, but I feel confident with their WAF. Incentivized EA Edu Ard Sysadmin Read full review	StackPath Easy 25-30% improvement in website performance vs non CDN solution Less expensive and faster object storage than AWS Aided greatly in maintaining KPIs in terms of performance, availability Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
