Carlos Alam Hernandez Baruch - PeerSpot reviewer
Fast and secure deployments simplify operations for government and fintech clients
It is a fast and secure DNS. It is very easy to deploy, and my customers are happy with this tool. Additionally, the CDN performance in Mexico is excellent, providing fast service and tools. It offers reliability during high-traffic periods, ensuring no impact on the environment. It helps my clients avoid using on-premise boxes, simplifying operations as they only use the prices on Cloudflare.

Provides quick access to resources
We are a radio station who serves up music It has improved our organization by providing quick access to resources. CDN Speed  Data center availability around the world This product satisfies our company needs. No additional features are required as far as we are concerned. More than five…
Nick Wilsdon - PeerSpot reviewer
An easily scalable and stable product that provides exceptional support
The product should provide improved bot detection and management. The product should also provide support for code management. Everybody working in CDN is currently looking for ways to better manage code deployment with various authorization levels and synchronization with our lower environments. Matching up what's happening in CDN with what's happening on the origin regarding testing would always be useful.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution automatically detects and responds to certain types of traffic based on geolocation."
"It's a great product because it's scalable, has great coverage, and is mature with good defenses against DDoS attacks."
"The solution provides good load balancing and protection against DDoS attacks."
"The overall experience with Cloudflare is positive, with a rating of eight out of ten."
"The solution is stable, and the DNS servers are simple to use."
"The most valuable feature of Cloudflare DNS is security."
"The most valuable feature of Cloudflare is that it has a free version. They give us the free version with the anti-DDoS features and also the load balancing solution."
"Many websites require an SSL certificate because they sell stuff and want SSL. Cloudflare comes with an SSL certificate built in. It's automatic. You sign yourself up for Cloudflare, and an SSL certificate automatically protects your website. You don't necessarily need a certificate if you have a connection between your website and your host, the server, Cloudflare, and the host."
"It has improved our organization by providing quick access to resources."
"It is extremely easy to set up and integrate with WordPress and purge files as needed through the control panel."
"The control panel is nicely laid out and I do not have to hunt for functionality."
"I selected CDN77 because it has servers where our different target markets are (some are in Asia)."
"​Purge pages: It is a fast solution for updating my content from all datacenters."
"It has helped improve load speed on the site."
"Fastly uses configuration versioning, where you can deploy a new version in less than one minute."
"Its initial setup process is straightforward."
"Support is good; the product works as advertised. We have a Slack connection with them. So we can basically ask for help, live, engage, and ring when they respond. Very quickly."
"The product's initial setup phase is straightforward."
"The product helps our organization to access sites located in different regions quickly."
"Rate limiting is a good feature that protects from volumetric attacks."
"Compute@Edge features are valuable to me."
 

Cons

"If they improve on the placement of their data centers, it would be better. I'm living in a remote area. I would like to connect to them without any kind of lag."
"The pricing could be improved."
"Cloudflare should add more documentation and pricing to the cloud version."
"The solution could use more analytics on the backend to give us more insights into everything. More reports would be helpful."
"The integration of LLMs on the dashboard is something that is needed in the tool."
"The product support needs to be accessible from more places, a wider area of coverage."
"The analytics, basically the dashboard, doesn't have much to it."
"I would like Cloudflare to offer a dedicated account manager for large enterprise clients like us."
"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."
"Fastly's customer service area needs improvement."
"What I don't like about Fastly is that they charge a heavy price."
"It is missing a "staging" platform to deploy a test configuration with all of the real settings, which would allow us to properly test before putting it into production."
"Stronger analytics would be helpful, like showing configurations that haven't served a certain amount of traffic in a while. With many properties, things can get lost track of - duplicates or unused configurations not properly decommissioned."
"The solution's pricing could be better."
"The product should provide improved bot detection and management."
"Support is not that great."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Cloudflare's pricing is not much higher and is good for middle-level organizations."
"The product's pricing is cheap."
"It's a premium model. You can start at zero and work your way up to the enterprise model, which has a very high pricing level."
"So far I use free tier and happy with it. You can subscribe to business package if needed."
"I give the price a five out of ten."
"There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fees."
"I think the pricing is competitive. I think as far as licensing is concerned it's pretty straightforward because it's based on domain. It's just that sometimes domains could be tricky with some customers."
"The price is reasonable."
"I would suggest low usage cases that there are other options available, such as WordPress's own CDN."
"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​."
"Fastly is less expensive than one of its competitors."
"In my opinion, Fastly is priced competitively."
"I've generally found Fastly to be very competitive in pricing, especially around Compute@Edge."
"You need to pay a premium price for the tool."
"It is an expensive solution."
"The pricing has been very competitive."
"The solution is cheaper than other products in the market."
