Cloud security has improved remote access and has reduced costs for smaller client sites

I have used Cloudflare One's Identity-Aware Proxy, and it is quite straightforward from what I have seen so far. The app registration on the Azure side integrates fully into Cloudflare, and I am very satisfied with that part because it is easy to set up. The integration of Cloudflare One's Secure Web Gateway and Zero Trust Network Access works without any issues. That part is pretty automatic, and if you complete the rest of the setup, it comes together by itself with no issues from my side. What makes it nice is that we can actually start replacing on-site firewalls at this stage for the smaller clients because it does not matter if they go to a coffee shop or work from home; they are still secured by the same connection. The hops get shorter and you get better latency. We have done testing to see if it is better. One thing that we did notice with our proof of concept with our current client is that they have people connecting from the UK. When they used their previous VPN solution, uploading CAD drawings and other files to the server took a long time. They mentioned that it is much quicker on Cloudflare One's solution. I definitely believe that is part of the improved performance, and I am satisfied with that as well. What is nice about Cloudflare One is that it makes the setup easier and also easier to train technicians to maintain it. Compared to legacy systems, we do not need to get fancy firewalls in place that are costly. That is definitely also a cost-saver with Cloudflare One.

Ease of sensitive information detection and provides flexibility to customize and redefine policies and user analytics that detect data channels

In my opinion, there's a need for an extensive skill set or knowledge of creating policies. There's room for improvement to make it more user-friendly in creating custom rules and policies. In future releases, I would like to see a quick glance at detected data without downloading the actual file for both Windows and MacOS.

Enables organizations to monitor the network and protect themselves from data leakage

The initial setup process is very simple and easy. We have no issues to do it for ourselves or our customers. The deployment takes less than 20 days. The integration is very simple. However, first, we must understand what we want to have on our network and what we want to prevent. If we don't have this information before we start the configuration, we will be lost. We must know what kind of protection we need in our company. We have LGPD in Brazil. It is similar to GDPR in Europe. It prevents any personal information from being linked to other companies without permission. We have to take care of the personal information of our customers, employees, and partners. To deploy the tool, we must understand what we need to do. We must download the whole package and have our infrastructure ready to receive it. We must get the SSL certification and start to configure our platform. When the process is finished, we must roll out a small portion of our network to ensure everything will be well. After that, we must do the full rollout.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Clover is the best product globally."

"For Cloudflare Access, I am using the free plan...The most valuable feature is their protection."

"The tool also offers good scalability, and the dashboard, along with real-time analytics, is very good."

"I'm very satisfied with the environment and the dashboard."

"Enables me to work from two locations."

"It will take the blow rather than our applications should an attack occur."

"It's the endpoint exposition. We don't need to expose our VPN server to the internet and need a zero-test solution. I can apply some conditional access to the endpoint that's connecting to our network to check their security policies or the security condition of their workstation. Once the workstation is trying to connect to my internal network, then I would like to check the discrete condition of these endpoints that are trying to access my internal network. We created some conditional access. We have CrowdStrike, to check if the CrowdStrike is installed, to check if it's updated, and to check for Windows updates. We created some conditional policies to check it."

"Cloudflare Zero Trust Platform removes the risk of exposing the applications to the public."

More Cloudflare One pros

"As long as you know the flow and how the setup phase works, the process can be totally straightforward."

"We have accurate detection on data protection and more visibility on different data channels compared to other DLP solutions. So, basically, more on the principle, there is ROI."

"The main thing that I like about GTB is that it has a single agent for DLP and data classification. You can use the same agent. In terms of licensing too, it has a single license. When it comes to data classification, it supports open-source document platforms such as ChainSoft and OpenOffice."

"The product has a centralized console for everything."

"The most valuable feature is we can develop what we want. If we have an old or new requirement, they are able to support us to develop it all within one month."

"I am impressed with the tool's ease of deployment."

"The classifications in place are very helpful in making policies for ensuring sensitive data can be contained."

"This solution helps classify what is confidential and what is not, allowing products to be installed at home if they do not contain confidential information."

"When comparing GTB Technologies Inspector to other solutions you receive a good value for your money when considering all the features and benefits."

"All features in GTB are very valuable and effective."

Cons

"Feedback could be enhanced."

"Cloudflare Zero Trust Platform needs to improve its documentation. It took time to do the implementation."

"Lacks a VPN feature to provide a secure connection to the data center."

"The initial onboarding was causing us some confusion."

"When there are any dynamic changes in complex applications, the tool takes a lot of time, making its analytics-related area a major matter of concern where improvements are needed."

"Cloudflare DDoS has poor technical support."

"The free plan has limitations. For example, I can only set up three rules, and the application firewall is unavailable."

"I would like them to include a VPN feature to provide a secure connection to the data center."

More Cloudflare One cons

"The trouble with the tool is its ability to integrate with a third-party application."

"In my opinion, there's a need for an extensive skill set or knowledge of creating policies. There's room for improvement to make it more user-friendly in creating custom rules and policies."

"It would be great if they have information rights management (IRM) on the same agent."

"They have a roadmap for the Linux platform and Mac as well, and in the next quarter, they might have patch management also for Windows. However, they don't have that much for Linux and Mac. So, we need those things in Linux and Mac as well."

"The performance could be better."

"The solution could improve by providing additional availability requirements."

"The solution’s performance must be improved."

"They have a roadmap for the Linux platform and Mac as well, and in the next quarter, they might have patch management also for Windows. However, they don't have that much for Linux and Mac, so we need those things in Linux and Mac as well."

"The tool should include better AI features."

"To stay competitive, they should expand to smartphones."

More GTB Technologies Inspector cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Cloudflare Zero Trust Platform's pricing is good."

"The pricing is somewhere in the middle. I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten."

"My company has to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the solution. There are no hidden charges apart from the licensing costs of the solution."

"The prices are slightly expensive."

"The price tag is no longer $200,000, but rather $300,000 to $400,000. It's twice."

"The solution's pricing lacks transparency."

"The solution is not that expensive."

"The pricing of the solution is cheap. The licensing cost is also very low. I rate the cost and pricing a three out of ten."

"As long as your needs are fulfilled, even if the price is high, you will buy the tool."

"They offer a lot of features in a single bundle. So, if you want to remove some features from GTB, you can remove those. You don't need to buy those, and the price will reduce accordingly. I am very happy with the pricing."

"Its price is very reasonable and competitive."

"The tool's pricing is affordable and based on the number of endpoints."

"When comparing GTB Technologies Inspector to other solutions you receive a good value for your money when considering all the features and benefits."

"The tool is not expensive."

"The tool has a fair price."
