Sky Pilot ‑ Digital Nedlasting

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.

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.

Love sky pilot, they always are accommodating to my requests, support is great. Have used to deliver hundreds of thousands of downloads over multiple years. - highly reccomend
