Indiahikes loads pages 50% faster and has cut image weight by 60% since adopting Cloudimage and Scaleflex DAM in 2024. India's largest database of trek information, which welcomes 20,000+ trekkers each year, wanted fewer origin calls to its CMS, multi-CDN delivery and an easy way to embed videos. Implementation was quick, and the team now gets detailed media analytics from the Cloudimage dashboard to tune formats and transformations.
The Company
Over 12 years ago, Indiahikes set out with a simple belief: everyone must trek. Today, they run India’s largest database of trek information and welcome 20,000+ trekkers to their experiences each year. In 2024, the team chose Scaleflex's Cloudimage for a faster, higher‑quality way to optimize visuals.
The Challenge
Indiahikes wanted to optimize visuals more effectively and reduce source calls to their CMS. The multi‑CDN approach offered by Scaleflex stood out as a way to improve delivery reliability and performance. In parallel, the team needed an easier path to embed videos directly on their site without adding operational overhead. Taken together, these requirements pointed to a unified media optimization and delivery layer that could improve speed, cut origin load, and simplify workflows.
The Solution
“We chose Scaleflex as we really liked the professionalism displayed and the importance given to the relationship with its customers.”

Indiahikes adopted Scaleflex’s Dynamic Media Optimization (Cloudimage) alongside the DAM to streamline delivery and management of visuals. With Cloudimage, the team stores and embeds videos directly on their site, gains detailed analytics from the dashboard, and applies a wide range of on‑the‑fly optimizations. Implementation was quick and seamless, enabling the team to roll out improvements without heavy development cycles. Together, DAM and Cloudimage provided the flexibility and control needed to improve quality, speed, and operational simplicity.
The Results
After implementing Cloudimage and DAM, Indiahikes saw immediate performance gains and smoother operations. Page loading improved by 50%, directly tied to more efficient delivery and on‑the‑fly optimization. Image payloads dropped by 60%, cutting bandwidth and easing origin load. The team now benefits from actionable analytics on media performance, which helps them tune formats and transformations with confidence.
