KeyCDN vs Bunny.net for static files

For static files (images, JS, CSS, downloads), both KeyCDN and Bunny.net are solid. In most cases, Bunny.net is the better default choice today, especially for price/performance and ease of use.

Quick take

• Choose Bunny.net if you want:
  • lower cost
  • very simple setup
  • strong global performance
  • extra features like image optimization, streaming, storage, and edge rules
• Choose KeyCDN if you want:
  • a more traditional CDN feel
  • you already use it and it works fine
  • specific workflow or preference around its control panel/features

Main differences

1) Pricing

• Bunny.net is usually cheaper for many common use cases, with very competitive bandwidth pricing.
• KeyCDN can still be cost-effective, but Bunny often wins on raw price.

2) Ease of use

• Bunny.net is generally easier and faster to set up.
• Cleaner UI, straightforward pull zones, simple caching rules.
• KeyCDN is also manageable, but feels a bit more old-school.

3) Performance

• Both are fast and suitable for static assets.
• In real-world use, Bunny frequently gets praised for excellent global performance and quick propagation, but differences can be small depending on your audience and origin.

4) Features

Bunny.net

• Bunny Optimizer (image resizing/compression)
• Bunny Storage
• Edge Rules
• Token authentication / hotlink protection
• Video streaming options

KeyCDN

• Strong basic CDN features
• Good analytics
• Origin shield / zone management
• Useful security and caching controls

5) Support and ecosystem

• Bunny.net is often preferred by small teams and indie projects because of fast support and polished tooling.
• KeyCDN is reliable and established, but Bunny tends to feel more modern.

Recommendation

If your goal is simply serving static files fast and cheaply, I’d pick:

Bunny.net

When KeyCDN might still make sense

• you already have it integrated
• you’re satisfied with current costs/performance
• you prefer its specific account/admin setup
