Cloudflare DNS Reviews

Previously, when we published new websites or new services on our domain, we had to wait for the changes to be reflected on the internet before they took effect.

We have the same features with Cloudflare, but they are duplicated across the internet in minutes due to how quickly Cloudflare's technology works.

I find it simple to register your domains or create a new domain on Cloudflare. 

Its most significant benefit to date is the speed with which it refreshes DNS records on the internet once you change it. If you are changing a website or registering a new record, it is very quick.

Another advantage of Cloudflare's DNS hosting is the protection it provides. If you have the domain and DNS records on Cloudflare, you may also hide it behind its proxy so that it does not display its real IP address on the internet.

At the moment, they are all mostly positive. There will most likely be enhancements in the future.

I believe they currently have this feature, but there will most likely be integration with APIs so we can control some features through API.

I have all of the features I need here. The one feature that is paid is the custom nameservers instead of using the default ones, I want to use a custom one. Otherwise, I'm already pleased with most of the features.

I have been working with Cloudflare DNS for three years.

Cloudflare provides a cloud service for hosting DNS servers or DNS records.

Cloudflare DNS is definitely stable.

They have services all around the world, and they are always up and running.

I never had a DNS issue. 

They also provide information on how many individuals visit your website.

I am the only one that manages the DNS Service so far.

Clients are often pleased since they no longer have to wait so long to launch new services when they are required.

I have never had to contact technical support or open a ticket because the servers are so reliable.

Very user-friendly. It is relatively simple to set up and operate due to its user interface.

It took less than a day to deploy, perhaps a few hours. It didn't even take an hour.

That is one of the great features. I was able to access the majority of the features and services for free. 

They provide more advanced services for a fee. I haven't even spent a single cent on it. 

To use the service, any user must first register with Cloudflare.

We are partners with Cloudflare. Our organization supplies DDoS solutions, but exclusively at Layer 4. Because of our partnership with Cloudflare, we can now provide DDoS protection to our clients on both Layer 4 and Layer 7.

If you don't want to spend too much time hosting your own DNS server or managing the domain, Cloudflare is a great way to rapidly get websites and services online. 

The free solution includes protection, and email security, and is very simple to use. 

It makes managing websites and publishing them on the internet much easier.

I would rate Cloudflare DNS a ten out of ten.

I use the solution for DNS management. 

What I do is every domain we have has some web resources available. Instead of sending everything directly to my web server, what we do is send all the DNS requests for that domain to Cloudflare. It is DNS security enabled to defend those websites from attacks. 

The solution has benefited the company in terms of security. It keeps the public IP anonymous to the user as well. 

The security is the most important aspect. The attacker won't have details since my public IP is anonymous. It offers us good privacy. 

The setup is straightforward. 

They are very professional and really go above and beyond for their users. 

The solution is very scalable. 

The pricing is fair. 

I'm not aware of any areas in need of improvement. There might be helpful if there was some web application firewall feature. That way, I wouldn't need a third-party solution like Radware.

I've used the solution for five years. 

The solution is extremely scalable. We have five people managing it in the company. 

I'm not sure if we will increase usage. It will depend on different elements we have in the future, such as more clients. 

I've never contacted technical support in the past. 

We did not use a different solution. We might have used Open DNS, which is the Cisco Umbrella solution right now. We moved to Cloudflare as it is cost-effective. 

The implementation is very simple. You actually forward all the initial requests to the DNS main server. Once the domain is registered with them, they actually confirm that, and they have a step-by-step configuration part where you actually go and do the different elements that you have that you need to have in place. 

We had one person manage the deployment. 

I handled the implementation myself in-house. 

The ROI is hard to portray as security, while important, is hard to quantify. You would only lose money if you had an attack and you need to calculate the cost against the risks. 

The pricing is reasonable. It is cheaper than other options. There are no extra costs or fees.

I'm a customer and end-user. 

I'd advise people to really think about why they want to use Cloudflare. If it is feasible, it will depend on the level of investment they want to make into their security.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. 

Cloudflare DNS is the primary DNS resolver for our domains. We are using it for CD.

The most valuable feature of Cloudflare DNS is its global reach and it is always evolving.

It would be helpful if the solution could continue evolving to compete with the other solutions on the market.

I have used Cloudflare DNS for approximately two months.

I rate the stability of Cloudflare DNS a ten out of ten.

Cloudflare DNS is highly scalable.

We using the solution to its fullest.

I rate the scalability of Cloudflare DNS a ten out of ten.

I rate the support of Cloudflare DNS a ten out of ten.

Positive

The initial setup of Cloudflare DNS was a quick process using the documentation. It took us approximately two weeks to complete the implementation. The documents that were provided were helpful.

When you compare Cloudflare DNS to other solutions, such as Akamai, the price is reasonable.

There are four people who manage this solution. However, they have other tasks other than only managing this specific solution. Cloudflare DNS is a critical solution and the network team covers it well.

Cloudflare DNS has had a highly stable performance with good reliability. It's working better than our own distribution. We're happy with the solution.

I rate Cloudflare DNS a nine out of ten.

We use Cloudflare DNS for websites when our clients want to have good protection. We can filter any traffic before sending it to their web page.

The most valuable feature of Cloudflare DNS is security.

The documentation could improve for Cloudflare DNS.

I have been using Cloudflare DNS for approximately eight years.

Cloudflare DNS is stable. I have not had an issue.

The solution is scalable. It can scale approximately 10 percent, it is limited only by how much money you want to spend on the increase.

I used this solution for large-sized companies because it is expensive.

I have used the support and they could improve.

I rate the support from Cloudflare DNS a six out of seven.

Neutral

The setup of Cloudflare DNS is easy. It is important to search for recommendations for best practices.

I rate the initial setup of Cloudflare DNS an eight out of ten.

The price of the solution is expensive.

I rate the price of Cloudflare DNS five out of ten.

I always advise my client to protect their websites and do DNS filtering.

I rate Cloudflare DNS an eight out of ten.
