As we simply use Cloudflare as our DNS provider and it's free, Cloudflare has been great for that. I have heard nothing but good things about Cloudflare in general, so I would recommend looking at their products. Currently, we are exploring some of their other products.

Great product with many useful features

Our devops team uses Cloudflare for many purposes to help manage our clients websites and products.
We make extensive use of the DNS product to manage a lot of our clients' DNS records.
The DDOS prevention mechanisms have stopped many attacks going to our high profile customers and we were able to add our own custom rules to prevent other issues caused by bots.
The CDN feature is caching successfully all the HTML and assets requests to our clients' websites and prevents majority of the requests from ever reaching the backend servers.

Great tool for all businesses both small and large

I have had nothing but good experiences with Cloudflare. I also like that they offer domain name services for at cost prices. Security features all work well and Cloudflare seems to always be innovating new features and capabilities. They are also open to allowing you to beta test new features to provide feedback and recommendations to their roadmaps for various items.

DDoS protection is key for any business operations when connected to the internet, which we all are. It absorbs malicious traffic through Cloudflare's network before it impacts the company servers.

This in conjunction with Zero Trust Security is hugely beneficial for companies like ours which hold a serious amount of personal HIIPA data.
