Featured Reviews

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.
Kamal Abdelrahman - PeerSpot reviewer
Has provided strong data protection capabilities while offering valuable policy customization options
I find unique value in McAfee Total Protection for Data Loss Prevention specifically in controlling the application from a DLP perspective; when a computer downloads a package, you can understand where it downloaded this package from, and you can create a policy regarding the source of the download. This is actually an important and valuable feature, specifically in enterprises where they download, upload, and export critical reports from their business applications. I appreciate the customized policy features in McAfee Total Protection for Data Loss Prevention because we didn't find these features in other competing applications. This may be a requirement from business customers who have important or critical applications; they expect to understand that these are critical files because this is a critical application. This cannot be done although we are with Trellix or McAfee solution.
Siti Aisyah Zainal - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers detailed features that can greatly assist in DLP systems
My advice for people considering using SearchInform DLP is to recognize its potential to benefit both you and your clients. It offers detailed features that can greatly assist in DLP systems, and by exploring these capabilities, you can better serve your clients. Overall, I would rate the solution a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is its usability."
"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."
"It's very user-friendly."
"From what I've seen so far, there are no negatives to report as of yet"
"New and innovative way to protect the client's data."
"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 consolidates various capabilities into one product, streamlining processes."
"We're using dynamic components to build flexible pages to create and manage Git merge requests for code and reviews."
"What I like about McAfee Total Protection is that it's working. I also like that it doesn't require any specific knowledge to set up."
"The product is largely stable."
"The pricing of the product is excellent. It's very affordable."
"The solution is stable."
"The overall features of McAfee Total Protection for Data Loss Prevention are very good."
"This solution has a rich set of policies."
"I am impressed with the tool's firewalls and web protection."
"The ability to block all USBs from the McAfee portal has been great."
"The most valuable feature of SearchInform DLP is the analytics tool."
 

Cons

"The product support needs to be accessible from more places, a wider area of coverage."
"Cloudflare should add more documentation and pricing to the cloud version."
"It should be easier to collect the logs with companies like Sumo. However, based on my discussions with the salespeople, I understand that's how they make their money. With the enterprise product, they want people doing those kinds of enterprise features to do the logging. They want them to pay a lot of money, and that's where I have an issue with them. That should be a default. You should be able to get the log no matter what. The logging should be universal."
"Cloudflare doesn't have a reverse lookup. We can only do a DNS lookup to get the IP address from the hostname. It doesn't work if you want to look up the hostname from an IPA address."
"Even if I wanted to, I wouldn't be able to buy Cloudflare in my country."
"The pricing could be improved."
"We are a product integrator and reseller, and we would like to have a better partner relationship, similar to a channel sales relationship. Sometimes we are on our own or get diverted by Cloudflare because they have direct sales, which competes with us and makes it difficult to build a relationship with this company since we want to be an MSP or a managed service provider for the solution."
"For large enterprises, the pricing is okay. However, the enterprise price for small projects is a bit high. A mid-tier pricing option would be beneficial."
"It could improve how it deals with solar data."
"McAfee Total Protection for Data Loss Prevention could improve by having artificial intelligence."
"The initial setup is very complex."
"We need to do a lot of configuration."
"The pricing is high for licensing and support and the GUI interface is good but could use updating."
"The solution needs an easier integration in heterogeneous and dynamic environments."
"There are a lot of vulnerabilities and viruses and malware can proliferate."
"Technical support doesn't really offer fast response times."
"There is room for improvement in terms of implementing a more solid development process, aligning with modern product standards, and upgrading the quality assurance procedures."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"So far I use free tier and happy with it. You can subscribe to business package if needed."
"That is one of the great features. I was able to access the majority of the features and services for free."
"Cloudflare's pricing is not much higher and is good for middle-level organizations."
"I give the price a five out of ten."
"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."
"When you compare Cloudflare DNS to other solutions, such as Akamai, the price is reasonable."
"The pricing depends on the usage, but the cheapest would be around 5,000 USD a month."
"The price of the solution could improve, it is expensive. We typically sell one and three-year licenses."
"McAfee Total Protection for Data Loss Prevention is an expensive solution."
"There is an annual license to use this solution."
"McAfee Total Protection for Data Loss Prevention is expensive."
"The price of McAfee Total Protection for Data Loss Prevention is expensive. It is not the most expensive solution but it is typically 15 to 20 percent higher than other solutions. There is no additional cost to using McAfee Total Protection for Data Loss Prevention."
"The price of the solution could improve."
"I'm paying the license for McAfee Total Protection yearly. It could be cheaper, but it's fine."
"The price is high for this type of product."
