Overall Satisfaction with Cloudflare

We use Cloudflare to protect and secure our company website. Our tech department primarily leverages it. Cloudflare is easy to use, has a 100% uptime SLA, and has increased the load speed of our website significantly. For more than a year, we were able to use the free tier and get everything we needed!
  • Robust Free Offering: The free tier is enough to get by on small projects, which is great for small startups.
  • Easy to Operate: Even if you don't have a technical department, you can figure out Cloudflare.
  • Site Speed: Implementing Cloudflare significantly increased the speed of our website.
  • The lower level plans don't allow you to use your own SSL certificate.
  • Reports dashboard could be more robust.
  • Some of the features they charge for you can access for free on other servers.
  • We have been completely protected from DDOS attacks.
Cloudflare support is very responsive. For free plans, they have a robust help center.

Do you think Cloudflare delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Cloudflare's feature set?

Yes

Did Cloudflare live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Cloudflare go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Cloudflare again?

Yes

I genuinely think Cloudflare is suited for companies of all sizes, from a solo blogger to large corporations. For robust websites, it can get expensive, so it might be cost-prohibitive for sole proprietors who need many page rules. What website doesn't need extra security and speed?
