Carlos Alam Hernandez Baruch - PeerSpot reviewer
Fast and secure deployments simplify operations for government and fintech clients
It is a fast and secure DNS. It is very easy to deploy, and my customers are happy with this tool. Additionally, the CDN performance in Mexico is excellent, providing fast service and tools. It offers reliability during high-traffic periods, ensuring no impact on the environment. It helps my clients avoid using on-premise boxes, simplifying operations as they only use the prices on Cloudflare.

Helps to manage data and secures configuration
We use Amazon Macie to manage data.  The tool gives confidence that our configuration is safe.  I have been using the product for three years.  The tool's deployment is easy.  Amazon Macie is worth its money.  I rate the tool an eight out of ten.  Amazon Web Services (AWS)
GM
Affordable and provides visibility into what the users are doing with the data
The file integrity monitoring feature is difficult to manage because some files are confidential while others are not. We use a different tool to classify the files as confidential and non-confidential. The sensitive data discovery and classification features are not of much help. It is a difficult process. The controlling features must be improved. The interface must be improved.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution is very good at mitigating threats."
"The simplicity of the overall dashboard makes it a great product for a user like me who has less understanding of the internet than a developer or other more technical people. It gives me peace of mind. I also love the easy customization of the Page Rules."
"Cloudflare has many features."
"Smaller businesses have seen great ROI due to the low investment and strong performance."
"The solution is stable, and the DNS servers are simple to use."
"It is easier to configure and develop documentation to see how we have configured firewalls."
"It is a fast and secure DNS."
"The most valuable features of the solution are performance and security."
"The tool's performance is good."
"The tool gives confidence that our configuration is safe."
"The product’s strict policies are its best features."
"The detection and alert features are valuable."
 

Cons

"The product support needs to be accessible from more places, a wider area of coverage."
"I believe they currently have this feature, but there will most likely be integration with APIs so we can control some features through API."
"The timing aspect can lead to it being considered overpriced. This is a particular concern we have with Cloudflare, as they may struggle with accurately detecting the client."
"Cloudflare should add more documentation and pricing to the cloud version."
"There might be helpful if there was some web application firewall feature."
"The solution could work at being less expensive. It costs a lot to use it."
"Latencies are always a problem."
"Sometimes their more advanced caching tools can cause higher first-byte times and problems with JavaScript."
"Amazon Macie is expensive."
"The vendor must provide a cloud solution."
"The interface must be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fees."
"When you compare Cloudflare DNS to other solutions, such as Akamai, the price is reasonable."
"We are using the free tier of the solution."
"The pricing depends on the usage, but the cheapest would be around 5,000 USD a month."
"The cost primarily depends on the size of the organization."
"I believe their performance has improved, but I'd like to refrain from discussing the pricing aspect related to the cloud. The pricing, in my opinion, could be simplified, and I think they should consider reevaluating the pricing for support, as it can be quite high. At times, this cost can make it challenging to choose CARFAGuard or opt for the support."
"The pricing for the service is reasonable, neither excessively cheap nor prohibitively expensive. It aligns well with the value of their solution."
"For Cloudflare, I recommend it heavily for small businesses with revenue under a couple of million dollars. Onboarding is easy, and they even have a free plan. This makes it simple for businesses in the $100,000-$500,000 range to try it out and see its value, allowing them to scale up their infrastructure as needed."
"You need to pay per usage."
"The pricing is reasonable."
