Cloudflare
We've had cases where our company was under cyber attack and received phising emails which contained links to malicious and credential stealing websites, impersonating trusted pages, or hosting malicious files to be downloaded. These malicious links were all blocked 95% of the time due to various methods used by CF to detect malicious pages and/or content. We have had a few minor cases where legit pages were blocked, but this was mainly due to domain age, and pages/domains created specifically for joint ventures or projects.

Pros
Cloudflare
  • DNS is quick to set up and seems to propagate quicker than other DNS name servers. Page rules are very convenient for quickly setting up redirects with wildcards.
  • Setting up a proxy with Cloudflare Workers for my API, which runs on Google Cloud Functions was much simpler than any solution I came across using Google Cloud Platform itself. It also doesn't cost us a lot of money for this use case.
  • Web Analytics are privacy-focused, so it is nice to get insights into our application without worrying about the data being sold. The interface is very clean. I like being able to query page views by bot score, to see how many bots are viewing pages compared to actual users. Querying this data is also very quick and simple when compared to Google Analytics API.

Cons
Cloudflare
  • Their UI is notable for simplicity but has room for improvement indeed, both in UX and especially for cohesiveness across feature sets
  • It would be nice to have better linkage between some of the more complex things in the UI and the documentation
  • Documentation can always be improved

  • Support is quite late, no swift response from the support team.
  • Ad-blocker works intermittently, sometimes doesn't block the ads.
  • cWatch on Linux is not efficient and needs a major update.

Cloudflare features are an integral part of my website, as of now I can’t think about doing without it. It would require an unimaginable time and effort to find and implement alternatives for every feature, considered how large and diverse Cloudflare feature set is

Usability
Cloudflare
Everything is extremely concise and all settings apply immediately and take effect globally. There is no reason to explicitly plan/think in terms of individual regions as one would have to traditional cloud offerings (AWS, OCI, Azure). All Cloudflare products integrate seamless as part of a single pipeline that executes from request to response.

Cloudflare
Because of Cloudflare Zero trust network security services, Cloudflare Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) is the technology that makes it possible to implement a Zero Trust security model. "Zero Trust" is an IT security model that assumes threats are present both inside and outside a network. Consequently, Zero Trust requires strict verification for every user and every device before authorizing them to access internal resources.

Support is chat only and was not very easy to deal with. I had to spend hours on chat with them just to get my server connected properly. I was getting cookie cutter answers for a while before they were able to get someone more higher up to me. Didn't seem US based either.

Return on Investment
Cloudflare
  • It has allow us to use the free plan in several small sites
  • For medium/big sizes, the plans they offer adjust properly to the needs we require; saving money and making the most of the spent one
  • Considering we manage several clients; we were able to centralize all of our client's accounts in our own; allowing us to save time in their management and giving them the security that we will only access the parts they require us to access

  • Application uptime is key. Managing risk of downtime saves much more than the cost of this platform.
