## Which should you choose?

Pick Cloudflare if Teams that want CDN, DDoS protection and WAF bundled together and effectively unmetered on bandwidth — the pricing axis here is feature tier, not gigabytes served.

Pick Bunny CDN if Cost-sensitive sites serving mostly Europe/North America traffic — $0.01/GB with no request fees and a $1 monthly floor is close to the cheapest entry point in this category.

Consider something else: Cloudflare — The workload needs Cloudflare's edge-compute or storage products alongside the CDN — those are priced and profiled separately (see Cloudflare Pages, Cloudflare R2), not part of this plan.

Consider something else: Bunny CDN — Traffic skews heavily to the Middle East or Africa — the regional rate there is six times the Europe/North America price.
