SmartBuyGlasses cut its average image file size by 25% with no loss in quality and reduced the labour needed to generate image files by 50%. The global eyewear e-commerce group, which operates in over 20 countries, manages thousands of visuals across multiple retail portals. It introduced Cloudimage as a CDN, so images are resized on the fly, converted to modern formats and delivered worldwide without manual effort. Implementation was extremely simple, and the collaboration continues to deliver consistent, reliable performance.
The Company
SmartBuyGlasses is a global omnichannel group and eyewear e‑commerce leader, operating in over 20 countries across APAC, Europe, and the Americas. Their mission is to make shopping for prescription glasses, designer eyewear, and contact lenses simple, fast, and fun.
The Challenge
As a global e‑retailer, SmartBuyGlasses treats thousands, if not millions, of visuals across multiple retail portals. These assets must be optimised for commercial use without compromising quality, while keeping production efficient.
The Solution
“In the over two years we’ve worked with Cloudimage as our CDN partner, it has helped us optimize and streamline our process of generating and managing our large image assets...”
Tony Zhuang
Chief Information Officer
SmartBuyGlasses introduced Cloudimage as a CDN to address these needs. Implementation was extremely simple. With Cloudimage in place, image processing and delivery are automated: assets are resized on the fly, converted to modern web‑friendly formats, and served globally via CDN without manual effort. This streamlined their workflows while maintaining the visual quality required for e‑commerce.
The Results
Through Cloudimage, SmartBuyGlasses decreased average image file size by 25% with no loss in quality and cut the labour required to generate image files by 50%. More than two years on, the collaboration continues to deliver consistent, reliable performance, marking a clear before‑and‑after in how the company treats visuals at scale.
