Advanced protection has secured critical web workloads and provides clear traffic visibility
From a security perspective, there remains a security loophole, as some browsers in the market can bypass the Turnstile solution, which requires approximately 40 seconds to do so. From a performance perspective, this is acceptable. We also tried Google reCAPTCHA, and that can also be bypassed. From a security perspective, I would say neither solution is completely secured. Regarding uptime, we have faced a couple of incidents due to Cloudflare in recent years, so I cannot say we receive 100% uptime for our region. We sometimes face challenges, including downtime and other issues. As a result, we are not receiving 100% uptime from Cloudflare's solution. Since most of our customers are in this region, we need alternatives. We need something more competitive than Cloudflare. Unfortunately, in Bangladesh, Cloudflare has three points of presence already, and we cannot find any other solution provider in Bangladesh as an alternative, which presents another challenge. Competitor solutions have more attack signatures, which ensure better security compared to Cloudflare's predefined configurations. Customers do not have options to modify any configuration parameters in Cloudflare, whereas other competitor solutions, such as F5 Distributed Cloud, allow customers to tune configurations according to their requirements. Cloudflare could improve in this area. Additionally, regarding visibility, Cloudflare has static visibility, but they could adopt dynamic graph features for their customers.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"DDoS protection is this product’s most valuable feature."
"The setup and configuration is also easy to perform and their support is excellent."
"The solution provides good load balancing and protection against DDoS attacks."
"The overall experience with Cloudflare is positive, with a rating of eight out of ten."
"The features of Cloudflare were found to be more beneficial and led to the decision to utilize it over other options."
"We're using dynamic components to build flexible pages to create and manage Git merge requests for code and reviews."
"From a technical point of view, Cloudflare is the best CDN."
"Cloudflare makes it easier for me to handle and set up DNS for multiple users and multiple clients, and basically go in and access their account, make the changes they need, and it's a one-stop shop."
"We have improved our flexibility to deploy web-based or DNS based solutions globally and deliver services more reliably."
"Great performance, easy configuration."
"Support was outstanding when first setting up in trial mode and also after we had gone live with the product."
"Tough to provide numbers, but avoiding downtime and calls from my employees when the VPN goes down was priceless."
 

Cons

"An integrated SSO feature would be useful for Cloudflare DNS."
"The product support needs to be accessible from more places, a wider area of coverage."
"Cloudflare could be improved by introducing a mid-tier pricing option."
"I would like Cloudflare to offer a dedicated account manager for large enterprise clients like us."
"It would be helpful if the solution could continue evolving to compete with the other solutions on the market."
"It looks like they don't support as many TLDs as other registrars, but since they are very new as a registrar, I expect this may improve soon."
"The one feature that is paid is the custom nameservers instead of using the default ones, I want to use a custom one."
"I rate technical support quite badly."
"The email for each line change is excessive, perhaps if the change emails consolidated all changes per domain in a given hour."
"My only recommendation might be a better, more modern interface."
"Just to be able to import records with our current DNS product which didn't seem to work with importing domains using AXFR zone transfer records."
"Compared to the other platforms, the interface is not as smooth, but the options and support help make that a non-issue."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing depends on the usage, but the cheapest would be around 5,000 USD a month."
"We don't have any issues with the price."
"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."
"The tool is a premium product, so it is very expensive."
"The solution is expensive when compared to other products but offers unlimited bandwidth."
"The solution has many features but there are ones that you need to pay for. Sometimes you have to find out which is available for free and which you have to pay for."
"It's a premium model. You can start at zero and work your way up to the enterprise model, which has a very high pricing level."
"We are using the free version."
