It's a great plug
imgproxy is the perfect out-of-the-box solution for what we need. It is a core part of our system now, and we are quite happy and satisfied with it. It is a great plug-and-play scalable solution.

Easy to deploy
We opted for imgproxy because it is easy to deploy and set up with Heroku and environment variables; we did not want to spend much time implementing a new proxy. Thanks for building an amazing, robust, reliable, and fast image proxy!

A core component of Forem
imgproxy has been a breath of fresh air. It has become a critical component of the Forem infrastructure. It elegantly addresses the pitfalls of inflexible and inefficient stored image variations while giving us the peace of mind that it is open source.

imgpoxy for 2M images per day!
imgproxy has many features and configurations that are easy to understand and adjust. We could leverage WebP in all our hosted websites in just one day. We also rate highly the tool’s stability, compatibility with all image formats, and speed, which helps us process most images in less than 100ms.
Over 1.1B images transformed
We needed an HTTP-based library that would use libvips, could process images from any remote URLs, and have low memory usage. After exploring options, imgproxy was the only one that met most of the requirements. imgproxy transformed more than 1.1B images from more than 65k websites in 1 year since we started Optimole.
Marius Cristea
CTO, Optimole
Yep, I’m a fan
In fact, my next use of it will be for Speaker Deck, a little website that serves a lot of images. Seeing what a difference it made for Box Out has me quite excited to use it there.

Run with it and never look back!
Of the few projects that fit our bill, imgproxy was the most promising. It has sane defaults and is very easy to set up. The documentation is good too. Later, we adopted a few Pro features: at this price point, it was a no-brainer. We ran with it and never looked back: we processed more than 20TB with imgproxy last year.

Very happy with it
imgproxy Pro has significantly reduced our costs and increased performance compared to the commercial product we were using before. We are also very happy now managing the configuration within our own source control system.

Checks all of the boxes

imgproxy Pro is super quick and an essential part of my website
I can’t believe how fast imgproxy Pro is! I used the free version for a couple of years and then expanded to the Pro version to take advantage of some additional functionality. I haven’t had a single issue with the software - it always delivers my images as expected.
