Streamlined lead capture has boosted web performance and made form handling more efficient
Currently, we are not using Cloudflare's security suite to the level much, as Cloudflare by default provides DDoS support; we are just using Cloudflare's DDoS support, which by default protects against denial-of-service attacks. I have used Cloudflare Workers' key-value pair for data storage. It has helped with data access efficiency, especially the data collection of the forms, as key-value pairs are easy to connect, and we are able to validate information much sooner, checking the mobile number. I assess the execution speed of Cloudflare Workers to be faster, at least providing a 30-40% increase compared to traditional server-based architectures, at a minimum. I have noticed time efficiency as the best return on investment with Cloudflare Workers; I am not seeing anything else, as time is the major one. We are planning to integrate WebAssembly with Cloudflare Workers, but we have not done it. I think we are good with Cloudflare Workers as we were having initial troubles with the ID integration, such as Visual Studio Code, but they have started adding some support when we start using their default packages, which can test locally as well as work in deployment; it is easier now, although the documentation can improve. I think the pricing of Cloudflare Workers is decent; it is good.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Overall, Cloudflare Workers is a very good solution."
"The overall positive impact and benefits I have observed since starting to work with Cloudflare Workers have been good; easy testing, setting up, and testing and deployments are much simpler, and the performance is good with faster execution; it appears to be made for the use case that we want, so it is good."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"This solution is very reliable, and they are proactive."
"Scalability-wise, it is a very good solution."
"The solution is very comprehensive."
"The integration feature has simplified our multi-tool ecosystem. The inbuilt integrations significantly improve our solution delivery timelines. Also, standardized adapters and integration adapters reduce failure rates due to compatibility. This boosts productivity and eases maintenance."
"ServiceNow provides immense options for customization and scalability, allowing users to build and modify the platform according to their needs."
"ServiceNow Now Platform is quite useful, scalable, and flexible, and the user interface is very good."
"We work on it directly to send out tickets, it enables us to work seamlessly, we don't need to send them out manually, and we can create a ticket and assign it in the system."
 

Cons

"The stability and reliability of Cloudflare Workers have been good, except for a few incidents that happened recently where Cloudflare was down, causing some disturbances very lately, in the last few months."
"In general, the security of the product could be improved with minimal latency due to its many points of presence."
"From an improvement perspective, the product's complicated initial setup phase can be made a bit easier."
"ServiceNow is not open source, so there is a license you must pay. As for how much it costs, what I have observed is that it often depends on your subscriptions. Suppose that you go with some subscriptions such as IDSM or any type of package like it, then the license cost will be impacted accordingly. Similarly, the cost is also adjusted based on your headcount of how many users will be using it."
"The UI is very bad and needs to be updated."
"The user interface could be modernized and made more attractive for users."
"This platform is used more by large companies because it is a little bit expensive."
"They should reduce the solution's cost and make it more affordable for buyers."
"ServiceNow Now Platform wants AI embedded in the product to make it more powerful. Generative AI that will be a part of ServiceNow Now Platform is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The price is a bit high and can be a bit of a barrier for some customers."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I don't have much exposure to the costs attached to the solution. I rate the product's price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is the lowest price, and ten is the highest price since it is a costly tool."
"There are extra expenses for maintaining the product apart from the licenses."
"Price-wise, I would describe the product's cost to be more than the average, but it compensates for that with the functionalities that it provides."
"I would rate the pricing an eight out of ten, with ten being very expensive solution."
"The pricing of this solution is done annually and it is very expensive."
"It's expensive and if you need some analytical views of your activity, there is an additional cost."
"Most of the features are included in the licensing cost. However, if we need extra plugins that are not available at the ServiceNow Hub or store, then we have to pay extra for those."
"It is expensive only."
