Overall Satisfaction with Cloudflare

We are leveraging cloudflare to add a layer of security on our dev and preview environments. We also use it to securely access cloud based code repository directly via VSCode. We take security very seriously and Cloudflare helps us get that extra level of comfort and security on top of our vast infrastructure.
  • Zero trust policy
  • Content delivery network
  • Serverless apps
  • Cache busting - visual representation
  • Better turnaround time for zero trust login (google oauth)
  • Better security
  • Better content delivery
Firebase can be a good starter for basic projects but as I scaled up, I found it lacking the maturity Cloudflare has. Naturaly, I opted for Cloudflare for bigger projects. I still use Firebase, but for small scale hobby projects only.
I was not a part of implementation at my current company.
We had to reach out to Cloudflare support for a caching related issue. The matter was resolved within an hour.

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

Content Delivery - I'd highly recommend Cloudflare for this particular use case. The cdn is superior to its competitors and has a great mesh of nodes scattered around the globe. While optimising a landing page for one of my previous employers, I was able to leverage Cloudflare CDNs to bring a 400% speed up for page load times.
