# Deno Deploy vs Cloudflare Pages

Canonical: https://inetgeek.com/compare/deno-deploy-vs-cloudflare-pages/

Every value below is read from Deno Deploy's and Cloudflare Pages's own documentation. See https://inetgeek.com/methodology/ for how.

## At a glance

| Criterion | Deno Deploy | Cloudflare Pages |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Free tier | Yes | Yes |
| Entry paid plan | $20/month for Pro. Builder is $200/month for subhosting; Enterprise is custom. | $5 / month account minimum |
| Pricing model | Four plan tiers with usage allowances rather than pure metering: Free, Pro at $20/month, Builder at $200/month and custom Enterprise, each with overage rates above the included amounts. | Metered usage with a $5 monthly account minimum |
| Monthly visits cap | 1 million inbound HTTP requests a month on Free, 5 million on Pro and 25 million on Builder, then $2 per additional million. | No cap on static asset requests on any plan; requests to Pages Functions count against the Workers Paid plan quota |
| Uptime SLA | 99.95%, on Enterprise only. Free, Pro and Builder are each marked not included. | Cloudflare's Workers SLA promises 99.99% and says it applies to use of Workers only. Pages Functions run on the Workers runtime, but no SLA names Pages, so the commitment is not stated for this product. |

## Which should you choose?

Pick Deno Deploy if JavaScript and TypeScript services that fit allowance-shaped plans rather than pure metering — a million inbound requests and 20 GiB of egress on the free tier, five million on Pro — with KV, sandboxes and multi-tenant subhosting on the same platform.

Pick Cloudflare Pages if Projects where the entire fixed cost should be a $5 monthly account minimum rather than a per-seat fee, and teams already running on the wider Workers platform. Billing is metered, so cost tracks traffic rather than headcount.

Consider something else: Deno Deploy — You need a reliability SLA below Enterprise, since Free, Pro and Builder each carry none; or you are still on Deno Deploy Classic, which the docs say shuts down on 20 July 2026.

Consider something else: Cloudflare Pages — Your repository is hosted somewhere other than GitHub or GitLab, or the free plan's 500 builds a month is not enough headroom.

## Documented by only one

- Kind of free offer: Cloudflare Pages: Free tier
- Egress over allowance: Cloudflare Pages: No egress charge. Cloudflare states that requests to static assets are free and unlimited, and Pages Functions are billed as Workers — so bandwidth is not a metered dimension on either half of a Pages project.
- Startup credit program: Cloudflare Pages: Cloudflare for Startups: tiered credits up to $350k for a year, starting at $10k on Tier 3.
- Memory (entry plan): Cloudflare Pages: 128 MB per isolate, on both the Free and Paid Workers plans.
- Sites or apps included: Cloudflare Pages: 100 projects per account (platform-wide, all plans)
- Included bandwidth: Deno Deploy: 20 GiB egress on Free, 200 GiB on Pro and 2,000 GiB on Builder, then $0.20 per GiB. Inbound request data does not count.
- File, inode or volume limit: Cloudflare Pages: 100,000 files per site on paid plans (20,000 on Free); maximum single asset size 25 MiB
- Build allowance: Cloudflare Pages: 500 builds per month on the Free plan
- Concurrent builds: Cloudflare Pages: 5 concurrent builds on Pro (1 on Free, 20 on Business), with 5,000 builds per month on Pro
- Max request duration: Cloudflare Pages: No limit for HTTP requests. A Worker keeps running as long as the client stays connected; Cron Triggers, Durable Object alarms and Queue consumers are capped at 15 minutes.
- CPU time limit: Cloudflare Pages: Up to 30 seconds of CPU time under the Standard usage model, which the Pages docs state Pages supports. CPU time is tracked separately from duration in the Pages Functions metrics dashboard; the same page notes that network-bound work inflates duration but not CPU time. Not plan-differentiated on the page.
- Streaming response limit: Cloudflare Pages: No enforced ceiling. Cloudflare documents no response body size limit; CDN cache limits apply at 512 MB on Free, Pro and Business and 5 GB on Enterprise.
- Managed connection pooling: Cloudflare Pages: Supported — Pages Functions with Hyperdrive bindings must be deployed with Node.js compatibility.
- Git deployment: Cloudflare Pages: Supported
- Scheduled jobs: Cloudflare Pages: Not supported
- Edge network: Cloudflare Pages: Supported — Cloudflare's network page advertises deploying to 330+ cities.
- Regions: Cloudflare Pages: No region selection. Pages Functions run in the data centre closest to the request; Smart Placement can instead pin a Worker near a named cloud region, host or hostname.
- Points of presence: Cloudflare Pages: 348 cities, counted in the Data Center Locations section of Cloudflare's network page. A banner on the same page says 330+.
- Support on entry paid plan: Deno Deploy: Community support via Discord on all four tiers. Email support from Pro ($20/month) upward; an email support SLA and onboarding support are Enterprise only.
