Overall Satisfaction with Cloudflare

We use Cloudflare for DNS and caching. It is used by almost all the sister websites that we have for NurulQuran. Changing the DNS name is very fast on Cloudflare. We switched over from Bluehost for DNS because Bluehost DNS was very slow. The caching is very good and saves us money on the bandwidth costs. Another benefit is the wholesale price of registering your domain name at Cloudflare. We also use 'Pages' to publish our PWA on Cloudflare. It automatically gets the site from Github.
  • Caching from the nearest geolocation to reduce latency.
  • DNS records are updated very quickly.
  • It can proxy the IP address of your website so your IP address is not revealed.
  • Support could be faster.
  • Fast DNS records
  • Free CDN
  • Publish your site directly from Github
  • Cloudflare saved a lot of money on caching

DNS is very fast and easy to update and change. So if you want [to] see your changes to your DNS records faster, Cloudflare is my recommendation.
A feature that would be nice to have is adding optional comments to the DNS records.
If you are doing a lot of testing and changes to your website, then I would turn off the caching.
