"CDNs are fairly generic, but image optimization is a specialty, and imgix is the specialist. The imgix rendering API was much richer, and the entire solution is much easier to manage."

"This feature might not have happened if we had to regenerate static and animated versions of every GIF in our back catalog. The engineering savings for that has balanced out the up-front investment."

"We deleted 1 million pre-processed thumbnails and PDF page renders from S3 because we switched to imgix."

"imgix is just so simple, you quickly understand and can harness its capabilities if you're at all familiar with how CDNs work. There's very little learning curve, excellent documentation and developer resources, and implementation is incredibly easy."

“At the end, you just upload one picture and you just manage it. You manage the performance and you don’t need any developers to manage it. For example, if we just wanted to increase or decrease the quality level of an image, we can do it by ourselves in two …

"Depending on tools like imgix nowadays helps you not only save time and money, but also it helps you keep your team nimble and productive."

"I thought imgix was just like a CDN. When I started digging into the documentation and using it, I was surprised by how many features it has."

“imgix is a great service. Using an image service provider has freed up a lot of our time to focus on building real estate products.”

"Many of our news images include headshots, so to evaluate different solutions, we felt the best test was to see how different tools cropped the same picture based on its facial region. imgix clearly did the best work."

"The fact that we felt comfortable making this feature completely free, which is going to end up costing us quite a bit more, shows our trust in imgix. With imgix, it feels like everything is the way it should be, it’s logical."

"Our latest project uses @imgix's to process all images, which simplified the process and saved us a lot of time!"

“Thanks to imgix’s support for massive 8K images, Unsplash’s high-res photos load insanely fast.”

"It would be impossible to ask our content team to crop, generate, and upload many variants for every image on the website. I needed something that would make the process easy for my teammates and me. That’s the only way I can sleep at night."

"It’s just a good practice to match the user’s device and screen density. But we can’t go crazy, particularly for mobile users. We don’t want to be using too much of their mobile data or taking 10 seconds to load an image. It’s getting that balance right between the best …
