Overall Satisfaction with Cloudflare
Ease of use, affordability, security, performance: pick four.
Started using Cloudflare for web performance, security improvements, and DDoS protection. Have since used its incredibly flexible Workers platform [the web's ultimate Swiss Army knife], at-cost domain name registration, 1.1.1.1 and WARP, and am now implementing my first enterprise Magic-WAN and Zero Trust rollout.

- Products adapt to shifting needs of the web [and internet]; keep your biz safe.
- Unparalleled security and internet engineering expertise; keep your bits safe.
- Plurality of presence points nearer to end users; shift your bits fast
- Newer features sometimes launch with scant documentation or support [c.f. recent workers AI]
- Centralization is a worry
- They could improve their marketing or product integration; they offer SO much it's sometimes hard to parse
- We're only just implementing the Magic-WAN and Magic Firewall but they're going to save us inordinate amounts of time by saving us going through a slow, ineffective, and insufficiently urgent MSP support process.
Onboarding is ongoing and so far smooth. The process is clear, the documentation and communication from Cloudflare has been excellent [our MSP we're leaving on the other hand....]. Our company's needs are relatively straightforward and noncomplex so not much of a hard test on that front.
