Overall Satisfaction with Cloudflare

We use Cloudflare to only manage our DNS records. This includes DNS records related to email, websites, etc.

Pros

  • You can add notes to DNS records for documentation
  • You can add multiple people to your console to manage DNS records
  • You can always buy other Cloudflare products to gain visibility into the usage of your DNS records and add security around your DNS records
  • Cloudflare does a good job against DDOS attacks

Cons

  • I wish there was a visibility feature for free that would just let you know the last time a DNS record was last used.
  • It's saved us money as we can host our DNS records on Cloudflare for free.
A few years ago, GoDaddy started charging us to be their DNS provider, and Cloudflare didn't charge, so we moved to Cloudflare. Also, Cloudflare was known for security protection, for example DDOS protection, and we haven't had any issues since moving to Cloudflare.
It only took us a few hours to migrate our DNS records onto Cloudflare while doing some cleanup on our part as part of that process.

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?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Cloudflare go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Cloudflare again?

Yes

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.
