I’ve used Sky Pilot for several years, and unfortunately I’ve had ongoing issues throughout that time.The biggest problem is poor bandwidth speed and server instability. Downloads regularly drop out, and customers are often disconnected partway through. The real kicker is that you’re still charged for the data used even when customers can’t access or complete the download. If a customer gets booted at 20–50%, you still pay for that bandwidth. Over time, those failed downloads add up very quickly expect $700–$1,000 USD bills if you’re running any kind of volume.I’ve raised these issues multiple times, including phone calls with management. Each time, the explanation is the same: blame is placed on their wholesale provider (Amazon servers). Occasionally I receive a small discount (usually around 10%) on a very large bill, but nothing meaningful is done to fix the underlying performance issues.Billing is another major concern. The system is confusing and feels poorly designed. I even raised concerns with Shopify, and the response around billing was vague and uncomfortable. If you’re on a custom plan and try to reduce your data usage to save money, you can be charged immediately for the new plan on top of what you’ve already paid for the month, effectively double-charging you. When questioned, support suggests changing plans only on the exact day your billing period expires which is hardly a practical solution.At this point, there are new options on Shopify offering unlimited data, better speeds, and clearer pricing. If you’re a small business trying to control costs and deliver a reliable experience to customers, it’s absolutely worth shopping around.
Hi there,
Thank you for your long-standing loyalty over the past 8 years. We sincerely value our history with you, and it’s disappointing to hear that you've been feeling this frustration.
We’ve sent a detailed personal email to you today addressing each of your concerns—specifically regarding the technical nature of CDN delivery via Amazon CloudFront and how Shopify’s Billing API handles mid-cycle plan changes.
While we stand behind the stability of our infrastructure, which serves thousands of high-volume merchants globally, we hear your concerns about cost and flexibility. To that end, we have proposed a significant, exclusive discount and a new technical workaround (Link Selling) that would effectively eliminate your bandwidth overage concerns.
We are committed to turning this experience around for you and hope we can continue our partnership on this new footing. We look forward to hearing back from you via email so we can get these updates in place!
Best regards,

The product was easy to use and understand. When I wasn't sure if I had done the set up properly, I used their support which was responsive and got me where I needed to be. I used Sky Pilot for downloads of ebooks, audiobooks and word games.

As a business owner selling digital sewing patterns on Shopify, I needed a delivery system that was reliable, professional, and easy for my customers to use. Sky Pilot has delivered on all of that. The setup was simple, file management is organized, and the branded download experience makes everything feel cohesive with my store.
What I appreciate most is that it just works. My customers receive their files quickly and without confusion. Whenever I’ve had questions, support has been responsive and helpful. For anyone selling digital products and wanting a smooth, polished delivery experience, I highly recommend Sky Pilot.
Ran into a storage issue late last night and I was pleasantly surprised that not only did they respond to my message, but helped with additional storage for my store. I’m a fan for life!

The Sky Pilot app is an excellent way (surely the best way) to provide digital products on Shopify. And their online chat (AI & live) has been very helpful, responsive to my questions and needs, helping me get set up. Some things did not make sense to me until their chat helped me. [Thank you!] Excellent app and online presence.
I was impressed with Lina's quick response, friendliness and didn't make me feel foolish for asking questions.
