For frontend deployment nothing has come close to Netlify in my experience. It's a game changer product.

I personally use Vercel mostly. Didn't do much with Netfliy yet, both options should be fine.

I was using Netlify but now prefer Render.

Good to know! What made you switch?

We had to move off Netlify because of CDN performance for users in Africa.

Pretty niche requirement I know, but the TTFB was insane as it was serving traffic from Brazil at that time.

This was around June 2020, if I recall so maybe things have changed. Moved to Cloudflare for our CDN

Have a look at this. It lists the performance of many Jamstack / static site providers https://www.jamstackdeploy.com/
