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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We're partners with Cloudflare; this solution is the best product and it does not charge you for any kind of attack on your traffic, only for good traffic, and it can mitigate up to 30 TBPS of DDoS attacks."
"It's a great product because it's scalable, has great coverage, and is mature with good defenses against DDoS attacks."
"I didn’t have to pay anything for better website security and reduced server load."
"It is easier to configure and develop documentation to see how we have configured firewalls."
"There is no service as mature as Cloudflare that is also as easy to use, reliable, and hosted from excellent infrastructure."
"I have not had a DDOS attack since, or at least not become unavailable due to DDOS which means my ROI is pretty good."
"The API gives us the ability to remote control our DNS settings."
"The most valuable feature is its usability."
"Great performance, easy configuration."
"Tough to provide numbers, but avoiding downtime and calls from my employees when the VPN goes down was priceless."
"Support was outstanding when first setting up in trial mode and also after we had gone live with the product."
"We have improved our flexibility to deploy web-based or DNS based solutions globally and deliver services more reliably."
 

Cons

"The solution could work at being less expensive. It costs a lot to use it."
"The Always Online feature has room for improvement. It seems to work sometimes and not others even with the pro version."
"There should be a specific price list for enterprise-level customers."
"I have found CloudFlare's support to be unresponsive at times, and not very helpful with providing technical details for issues that we have reported over the years."
"The reporting can definitely be improved to offer a lot more explanation on something that may have happened or has actually happened."
"With CDN loads, sometimes we get an error that the host server is unavailable when the connection between CloudFlare and the server timed out."
"I think they have failed with their technical support."
"Although I think it's quite good, it doesn't provide me with all the features I would expect to have if I were using Imperva."
"My only recommendation might be a better, more modern interface."
"Just to be able to import records with our current DNS product which didn't seem to work with importing domains using AXFR zone transfer records."
"The email for each line change is excessive, perhaps if the change emails consolidated all changes per domain in a given hour."
"Compared to the other platforms, the interface is not as smooth, but the options and support help make that a non-issue."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"That is one of the great features. I was able to access the majority of the features and services for free."
"Cloudflare's pricing is not much higher and is good for middle-level organizations."
"We don't have any issues with the price."
"We are using the free tier of the solution."
"The pricing for the service is reasonable, neither excessively cheap nor prohibitively expensive. It aligns well with the value of their solution."
"We are using the free version."
"I believe their performance has improved, but I'd like to refrain from discussing the pricing aspect related to the cloud. The pricing, in my opinion, could be simplified, and I think they should consider reevaluating the pricing for support, as it can be quite high. At times, this cost can make it challenging to choose CARFAGuard or opt for the support."
"The tool is a premium product, so it is very expensive."
