Q: Hi, I have few questions 1.
Right now we are using free version of smush so once we start using ewww should we keep smush free version or remove it?
2. We are also using free version of wp fastest cache plugin, so it will work together with your swiss performance plugin or should we remove wp fastest cache?
3. Do you have any step by step tutorials which can help us to get started with Compress API, Easy IO CDN, Swiss performance plugin we get with this deal.
4. We would like to compress images locally as well as put images on cdn service which we get with this deal. Also is it recommended to do like this?
By the way I Really liked all the reviews and the detailed way you are answering all the questions :-)

Great questions!
1. Definitely get rid of Smush free, it won't be doing anything that EWWW IO doesn't already do (and better).
2. I'd remove WPFC also and just use SWIS for page caching.
3. You'll have a quick onboarding/setup check-list on your account page when you purchase: https://ewww.io/account/ and it's pretty straight-forward from there. If you get stuck, check https://docs.ewww.io or email support and we'll get you going in the right direction :)
4. While many folks don't need local compression, there are plenty of folks that need both CDN-based and local image compression, and that's exactly how we use it on our main site at ewww.io. It makes sure we keep storage usage to a minimum, and also get all the benefits of the Easy IO CDN.
Happy Optimizing!
