Quickest to Deploy and Most Effective Image CDN

First of all, I found it quick and easy to set up ImageEngine on my website(s). It only takes a couple of minutes to sign up and you can easily integrate it with most types of websites either by updating img URLs or by using the official integrations. Usually, ImageEngine starts to serve optimized images almost immediately as soon as it's set up. I mostly use WordPress to publish sites, and it was easy to use ImageEngine even without the ImageEngine WordPress plugin that you can use now. On a number of these, ImageEngine managed to lower the total size of images by on average 80-90%, especially where the images were exceptionally large and particularly when viewing websites on mobile devices by adjusting the images according to the screen DPI and size. It also converted images to appropriate next-gen formats on different devices/browsers. I liked the set-it-and-forget-it nature of ImageEngine where I don't personally have to give a lot of input, but just let ImageEngine do all the work.

PROS

Takes just a few minutes to sign up and set it up on your website. Consistently reduced image payloads by 75% or more and greatly improved the performance on a number of different websites. In multiple tests against other CDNs, ImageEngine almost always improved page loading times the most, especially on mobile websites.

CONS

Everything works as promised. There aren't any backend image-editing tools, but ImageEngine already takes care of all optimization for you.

Reason for choosing ImageEngine

When running tests, ImageEngine consistently outperformed other products while the pricing was similar. ImageEngine also required minimal setup and configuration compared to the other options.

Vendor Response

Thank you for your review! We are thrilled you are finding ImageEngine helpful and please do not hesitate to reach out to our customer success team should you have any concerns at success@imageengine.io.

Most Advanced Smart Image CDN

ImageEngine provides an excellent solution to image delivery across the wide variety of devices and browsers you must support. For each device, it returns a version of the image with optimized pixel dimensions based on device resolution and DPI, compressed using the optimal, supported, next-gen image format. ImageEngine removes the need for graphics designers, front end developers and content creators to worry about image compression/formats and cross device/responsive versions of each image. It just handles it automatically.

PROS

ImageEngine currently has the most advanced device/browser detection functionality and returns the smallest images sizes, compared to other CDNs, without reducing the visual experience. Images often represent the largest number of bytes transferred for a page and after a 70-90% reduction, page load times decrease dramatically and engagement and conversion rates increase significantly.

CONS

I would love to see HTTPS support, using your domain, added to the basic plan, for small sites.

Reason for choosing ImageEngine

ImageEngine returns the smallest images sizes, compared to other CDNs, without reducing the visual experience, at an affordable price.

Vendor Response

We did noticed that you would like to see ImageEngine offering HTTPS support using our domain for the basic plan and we are happy to let you know that we do offer this. Here is the documentation: https://imageengine.io/docs/implementation/domain-name#ssltls And as always, do not hesitate to reach out to our customer success specialists at success@imageengine.io for assistance.

Best choice for image optimization and related website performance

We were having the concerns in images quality. we have to deliver the best quality images on the website and in parallel have to consider the best speed and optimized website with lowest page size possible. ImageEngine helped us to achieve this.

PROS

Image optimization, delivering the best suitable image for the device and improved website performance.

CONS

Nothing such as. We need the "Save as JPEG" feature, which was not available initially, but now available from yesterday onwards. We will test that and its a great feature.

Reason for choosing ImageEngine

Compression ratio and image quality. Auto device detection and delivering the right image without any extra code.

Vendor Response

Thank you for your review, Govind!
