Direct answer

Which CDN vendors are quote-only in 2026?

One is genuinely quote-only: Akamai, whose policy is no public rate card at any volume. Azure Front Door used to belong on this list and no longer does: Microsoft publishes a full nine-zone table with a $35 Standard or $330 Premium monthly base, and only sends you to sales above 150 TB a month. Two vendors have shut down: Edgio (CDN network offline 15 January 2025 after its 2024 Chapter 11) and StackPath (CDN closed November 2023, company liquidated 2024). For Akamai, get a written rate card and bring competitor quotes; the dead two are listed only so stale comparison tables do not mislead you.

Akamai

Quote only

Akamai does not publish a per-GB rate sheet on its website. All commercial terms are negotiated with sales, typically as a 12 or 36 month committed contract with overage bands.

StackPath

Shut down

StackPath shut its CDN (and the Highwinds CDN it ran) on 22 November 2023, and the company ceased all operations and liquidated its assets in mid-2024. Akamai bought around 100 enterprise customer contracts; the rest wound down with no buyer. There is no StackPath product or rate card to buy. We keep this entry only because older comparison articles still list it.

Edgio (formerly Limelight)

Shut down

Edgio (the Limelight Networks successor) filed Chapter 11 in September 2024, and its CDN network went offline on 15 January 2025. Akamai bought select customer contracts and non-exclusive patent licenses but not the network, technology or staff; the Uplynk streaming platform and the patent portfolio went to separate buyers in the liquidation. There is no Edgio CDN to buy. We keep this entry so you are not sent chasing a dead rate card.

How to handle a quote-only vendor

Bring at least 2 published-rate quotes (Cloudflare, Bunny, KeyCDN or Fastly) as your anchor floor. Insist on a written rate card. Reject 36-month lock-in. Require termination-for-convenience. See our CDN RFP template.
