Advanced protection has secured critical web workloads and provides clear traffic visibility

From a security perspective, there remains a security loophole, as some browsers in the market can bypass the Turnstile solution, which requires approximately 40 seconds to do so. From a performance perspective, this is acceptable. We also tried Google reCAPTCHA, and that can also be bypassed. From a security perspective, I would say neither solution is completely secured. Regarding uptime, we have faced a couple of incidents due to Cloudflare in recent years, so I cannot say we receive 100% uptime for our region. We sometimes face challenges, including downtime and other issues. As a result, we are not receiving 100% uptime from Cloudflare's solution. Since most of our customers are in this region, we need alternatives. We need something more competitive than Cloudflare. Unfortunately, in Bangladesh, Cloudflare has three points of presence already, and we cannot find any other solution provider in Bangladesh as an alternative, which presents another challenge. Competitor solutions have more attack signatures, which ensure better security compared to Cloudflare's predefined configurations. Customers do not have options to modify any configuration parameters in Cloudflare, whereas other competitor solutions, such as F5 Distributed Cloud, allow customers to tune configurations according to their requirements. Cloudflare could improve in this area. Additionally, regarding visibility, Cloudflare has static visibility, but they could adopt dynamic graph features for their customers.

Automated threat intelligence and flow-based mitigation have improved our DDoS defense

A very useful feature in Arbor DDoS is its ability to send flow spec announcements to routers. For example, if it is clear that a Layer 3 or Layer 4 attack is occurring and the attack pattern is identified through source and destination IP addresses and ports, you can generate flow spec filters. These filters are transferred through BGP to border routers, which automatically build filters, mitigating the attack even at the network's boundary and preventing it from reaching the TMS. This allows the TMS to focus on other tasks. This is a highly effective feature that can mitigate huge volumetric attacks; for example, we experienced a 32-gigabit attack, and all those 32 gigabits were dropped by our border routers, not by Arbor DDoS itself. The flow spec announcement was generated by Arbor DDoS, and as far as I know, the same technology is used by Radware, but it comes under a different feature and a different license. At the time, we were told that flow spec mitigation was an additional very expensive license to purchase from Radware, while Radware included everything in one package.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Stability is great; I love their mechanisms, I love their GUI, I love their front end, I love their behind the scenes, algorithms and everything, it all makes sense."

"It's a great product because it's scalable, has great coverage, and is mature with good defenses against DDoS attacks."

"Its ease of integration with Office 365 and the fact that it's a good product compared to what I had before"

"So far I use free tier and happy with it."

"There are key things that are used for our enterprise customers, such as Lambda and DNS."

"New and innovative way to protect the client's data."

"Cloudflare has positively impacted our organization by giving us flexibility to manage the DNS part, being quite fast, and allowing us to manage everything from a single dashboard, which is quite handy."

"Cloudflare DNS is widely used, and it's good for websites. If we use Cloudflare DNS and update one record, it updates in their office instantly."

More Cloudflare pros

"The feature I find most valuable is the packet capture, which beautifully shows the communication between the client and the server, identifying potential malicious activity."

"The analytics part of Arbor DDoS is great, and we are satisfied with the reporting and analytics part, especially the new version."

"Reporting is quite good. There are several pages of reporting on DDoS attacks, and you can find all the details that you need."

"There were huge attacks in October, around 62 attacks at 30 gigabits per second, at one of our banks. We used Arbor DDoS to mitigate these attacks, and it performed great."

"We use almost all the features of Arbor DDoS, but it really depends on the customer’s requirements, so I can’t specify exactly which features we use. However, many customers appreciate the basic DDoS protection, especially those without specific protection needs. For example, financial companies benefit from the cloud DDoS protection. It’s a straightforward solution that effectively meets their needs."

"We use it not only for DDoS detection and protection, but we also use it for traffic analysis and capacity planning as well. We've also been able to extend the use of it to other security measures within our company, the front-line defense, not only for DDoS, but for any kind of scanning malware that may be picked up. It's also used for outbound attacks, which has helped us mitigate those and lower our bandwidth costs..."

"When there was an attack, the attack was contained only on the IPs under attack, the rest of the network was not impacted, and that is the most important part."

"Our customers are very happy when we provide them with the interface... They can check how many attacks they have faced and how many attacks have been blocked."

More Arbor DDoS pros

"It is extremely easy to set up and integrate with WordPress and purge files as needed through the control panel."

"CDN77 has helped improve load speed on the site."

"The control panel is nicely laid out and I do not have to hunt for functionality."

"Purge pages: It is a fast solution for updating my content from all datacenters."

"I selected CDN77 because it has servers where our different target markets are (some are in Asia)."

"It has improved our organization by providing quick access to resources."

Cons

"The timing aspect can lead to it being considered overpriced. This is a particular concern we have with Cloudflare, as they may struggle with accurately detecting the client."

"The Cloudflare load balancing capability hasn't really helped in enhancing my website's uptime and resiliency because we don't really get that much traffic; it's mostly remote users, and web hosting is done by a web hosting service."

"There should be a specific price list for enterprise-level customers."

"Yes, there were a few times when some of their CDN nodes would fail, creating serious speed issues with the site without any warning or notification from their side."

"I believe they currently have this feature, but there will most likely be integration with APIs so we can control some features through API."

"The installation was complex until I learned what I had to learn."

"The product needs to improve its automation."

"There might be helpful if there was some web application firewall feature."

More Cloudflare cons

"Support in Argentina is not so good. Although the team is good, they are not fast, and they lack the skills to manage dynamic attackers."

"The look and feel of the management console is a little old, excessively simple."

"An issue which needs to be addressed concerns information I received of attacks on the radar and Arbor, allegedly, not taking any action."

"Because we had some routers that were somewhat old, they were not integrated with Arbor. They did not support the NetFlow version that Arbor was running. That was a challenge. We had to upgrade the routers. Some backward-compatibility would be helpful."

"The solution's IT support needs improvement."

"Sometimes it blocks legitimate traffic. If a legitimate user is trying to access the server continuously, the product suspects that this is a DoS traffic file. That is a case where it needs to improve. It needs machine-learning."

"The implementation should be made easier."

"The regional support here in African could improve, such as marketing and account managers."

More Arbor DDoS cons

"Regarding the pricing, it is expensive. It may not suit others."

"A year ago, I had to deal with SEO factors involving duplication of content."

"If you are a low-use user and not used the minimum credit, it will be lost at end of year unless you upgrade, then you are left with more bandwidth than you can ever use."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product's pricing is minimal compared to other products."

"A free version of the solution is available."

"In terms of licensing costs, we don't pay for licensing for Cloudflare. We only establish communication, then for peering, Cloudflare takes care of the cross-connection in different data centers."

"That is one of the great features. I was able to access the majority of the features and services for free."

"So far I use free tier and happy with it. You can subscribe to business package if needed."

"The product's pricing is cheap."

"The pricing for the service is reasonable, neither excessively cheap nor prohibitively expensive. It aligns well with the value of their solution."

"The pricing depends on the usage, but the cheapest would be around 5,000 USD a month."

More Cloudflare pricing and cost advice

"Arbor DDoS is quite expensive, but all these solutions are expensive because they deal with confidential information."

"There is room for improvement with the pricing. It is an expensive solution. The issue with the pricing is more the way it is built. Right now we're paying per router, and there's a limitation there. I would like to see bundle-pricing where there is an overall solution cost."

"It is an expensive product. I use this product for its different features."

"The licensing of a complete Arbor solution, including fire-walling and unified site management, can get expensive."

"Arbor's products are very expensive. Their competitors are cheap when compared with Arbor."

"I don't deal with the pricing, but it seems that you need to get basic support in order to upgrade the software and implement some patches."

"I don't know about the pricing details as our company's service provider offers us the solution as an inbuilt feature within the internet bandwidth they provide us."

"The price of this solution is a little high in the African market, it should be lower."

More Arbor DDoS pricing and cost advice

"For low-use users, it can be more expensive than it seems. It would be a disadvantage for a lot of hobby users."

"Regarding the pricing, it is expensive. It may not suit others. I suggest a lower recharge level and also to remove the credit expiry time."

"I would suggest low usage cases that there are other options available, such as WordPress's own CDN."
