bunny.net review

bunny.net is a global edge platform that combines content delivery, security, storage and compute. The homepage lists 119+ edge locations and products for CDN, video delivery, cloud storage, image optimization, DNS and application deployment. It is broader than a CDN, but that does not mean every product is a like-for-like replacement for a competing service.

Bunny CDN distributes site content across its network. Bunny Stream is for video delivery, while cloud storage provides hot object storage replicated around the world. For applications, Edge Scripting and Magic Containers run code at the edge. Optimizer handles image processing and website optimization; Shield provides security protection, and DNS routes traffic across infrastructure.

The pricing page lists pay-as-you-go CDN rates rather than fixed monthly plans. That makes bunny.net easier to assess as a delivery line item, but the cost depends on traffic volume and where it goes. Teams considering a broader switch should compare the specific products they rely on, not just the headline network price.

The clearest case for bunny.net is a team that wants content delivery and related edge products on one bill, without committing to a fixed CDN subscription. The pricing page lists a $1 monthly minimum and pay-as-you-go rates. On the Standard network, Europe and North America cost $0.01/GB; South America is $0.045/GB, Asia and Oceania $0.03/GB, and the Middle East and Africa $0.06/GB. The network lists 119 PoPs.

There is also a lower per-GB rate for high-bandwidth projects, with a smaller footprint. The Volume network lists 10 PoPs and charges $0.005/GB for the first 500 TB, $0.004/GB from 500 TB to 1 PB, and $0.002/GB from 1 PB to 2 PB. Above 2 PB, the page says to contact sales.

The product range is useful if you want CDN, video delivery, storage, image optimization, DNS or edge compute from the same provider. A Reddit thread describes bunny.net as the closest single-bill option in a search for a European Cloudflare alternative. That is a user’s assessment, not proof that every Cloudflare feature or service is covered.

Bunny.net’s pricing is not a flat monthly rate: the bill depends on traffic volume and destination, and the $1 monthly minimum still applies. The published pricing information lists no free plan and a 14-day trial; it does not list annual billing. The Standard network has higher rates outside Europe and North America, while the cheaper Volume network has just 10 PoPs. Projects above 2 PB must contact sales for pricing, which is not published.

There are also network concerns in user discussions. One commenter on r/BuyFromEU reports worse IPv6 support, routing three to four times slower than Cloudflare, and no QUIC/HTTP3 support. Those are individual reports, not independently verified performance findings, but they matter if you are switching for latency or protocol support. Another commenter on r/Hosting says Magic Containers need better billing and reporting and are still in beta. Check those requirements before treating bunny.net as a full replacement for an existing edge stack.

bunny.net is usage-priced, not a flat monthly CDN plan. The pricing page lists a $1 monthly minimum and a 14-day free trial; there is no free plan, and annual billing is not listed.

The Standard network has 119 PoPs. Delivery costs $0.01/GB in Europe and North America, $0.03/GB in Asia and Oceania, $0.045/GB in South America, and $0.06/GB in the Middle East and Africa. That regional spread matters: the same traffic volume can cost six times more in the Middle East and Africa than in Europe and North America.

The Volume network has 10 PoPs and charges $0.005/GB for the first 500 TB, then $0.004/GB from 500 TB to 1 PB and $0.002/GB from 1 PB to 2 PB. From 2 PB, pricing is contact sales. The lower rates come with fewer PoPs, so compare coverage as well as cost. The published pricing lists no add-ons or annual discount; budget against usage, not a fixed plan price.

Treat a move to bunny.net as several migrations, not a single CDN toggle. Its product set includes CDN, DNS, storage, video delivery, image optimization, security, and edge compute. Map which services you actually use, then plan changes to origins, DNS records, cache behavior, security settings, and any stored or processed content. The published material does not document migration tooling, export formats, or data-transfer fees, so confirm those before moving production workloads.

The same gaps matter when leaving. The sources do not say how to export storage or video assets, or how portable Edge Scripting and Magic Containers deployments are. Avoid assuming that stopping delivery also moves your data or configuration.

The brief flags reported network compromises as a switching concern, but includes no Reddit posts or details that establish what users left over. We can’t responsibly present a specific Reddit-driven reason as a trend. Before switching, verify IPv6 and QUIC requirements: the verdict says teams needing proven support in both should look elsewhere.
