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.
ToddMcAlister - PeerSpot reviewer
Flexible, provides insights into the infrastructure, and monitors movement of files effectively
The product is flexible. It takes care of our cloud infrastructure. The tool meets our needs. The normal compliance policies work well. The behavior analysis features give us insight into what is going on in the network. The tool has been pretty effective in monitoring the files that are being moved. The network integration has been fine.
Yovanny Amariles - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides good security, availability, and policy granularity
The solution's initial setup is easy. Since our company has a very clear internet surfing policy, it is easy to implement it on the device without any problem. The solution's deployment takes one month. One engineer from my team and one engineer from the vendor side helped with the deployment process.

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 most valuable features of the solution are performance and security."
"It is a fast and secure DNS."
"The solution provides good load balancing and protection against DDoS attacks."
"Cloudflare consolidates various capabilities into one product, streamlining processes."
"The solution automatically detects and responds to certain types of traffic based on geolocation."
"The UI is good."
"The solution offers the flexibility to control configuration rules."
"The Real-Time Analytics and Reporting capabilities of Netskope Data Loss Prevention (DLP) are good and up to the mark."
"I find Netskope Data Loss Prevention (DLP) easier and more appealing than Zscaler."
"The product is flexible."
"The product provides visibility to manage sensitive data and control access."
"Skyhigh offers solutions like WLP and CASB. These tools provide instructions and guidelines for enhancing data security. Additionally, they offer additional software solutions for further protection."
"The threat protection capabilities are very strong."
"DLP policies and anomalies."
"There is [a feature] called cloud registry where we can see a risk assessment for the cloud services being used. If we want to add a new cloud service or a new cloud application, we can check into it and do an assessment through the cloud registry."
"Skyhigh has given us categorization and rating of websites separate from what the web proxy places on the logs."
"Without Skyhigh, we had zero visibility, but now we are aware of so much more."
"A stable solution with good support."
"The feature I like best about Skyhigh Security is its wide range of product support. For example, my company had NetApp storage running, and Skyhigh Security has on-premises NetApp storage support, which isn't available in other solutions. Skyhigh Security also has a better filtering feature versus the filtering feature in other solutions."
 

Cons

"The analytics, basically the dashboard, doesn't have much to it."
"I would like Cloudflare to offer a dedicated account manager for large enterprise clients like us."
"Latencies are always a problem."
"Integration involving API with other products could be more user-friendly."
"Even if I wanted to, I wouldn't be able to buy Cloudflare in my country."
"It would be helpful if the solution could continue evolving to compete with the other solutions on the market."
"Cloudflare should add more documentation and pricing to the cloud version."
"Cloudflare could be improved by introducing a mid-tier pricing option."
"I rate the pricing a seven out of ten. The pricing is moderate."
"The product should be compatible with multiple file formats."
"Netskope Data Loss Prevention (DLP) can be improved primarily because we were looking for any other provider due to the ZTNA feature that we were scoping from Netskope."
"I have not seen any benefits from this real-time analysis at this time."
"Support for securing more cloud apps."
"There are no training videos available for the product."
"The tool could improve flexibility with the creation of reports/querying data."
"The performance of the tool can be improved to provide faster report generation."
"You can integrate Skyhigh's rules with Active Directory groups. For example, you can allow access to a specific website for a defined set of users. I can do that, but the rules are not straightforward. It can look up the group in Active Directory. However, it doesn't always find the proper group name. The rule configuration should be simpler and more granular. The admin should be able to map 80 groups in the rules quickly."
"The solution has room for improvement in its DDoS protection."
"De-tokenization."
"The biggest challenge we have with McAfee is their cross-cloud support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We don't have any issues with the price."
"So far I use free tier and happy with it. You can subscribe to business package if needed."
"The pricing depends on the usage, but the cheapest would be around 5,000 USD a month."
"I think the pricing is competitive. I think as far as licensing is concerned it's pretty straightforward because it's based on domain. It's just that sometimes domains could be tricky with some customers."
"The product's pricing is cheap."
"I give the price a five out of ten."
"In terms of licensing costs, we don't pay for licensing for Cloudflare. We only establish communication, then for peering, Cloudflare takes care of the cross-connection in different data centers."
"The price of the solution is expensive."
"The pricing is moderate."
"The licensing fees are based on what environments you are monitoring."
"Some of our clients have a perpetual license and pay additional support yearly."
"This is an expensive product, although it is made for larger enterprises and not for small organizations."
"The tool is not expensive."
"The solution is quite expensive. As we take add-ons continuously as per our customer's requirements, there are additional charges."
"Pricing for Skyhigh Security is okay, though there's always a scope for price improvements. Its pricing is okay compared to other products because other products have very expensive licensing costs. Along with the licensing, support is also provided for Skyhigh Security, so pricing is reasonable, but if there's proactive or better support, that will justify the pricing. I haven't interacted with the Skyhigh Security technical support team yet, so I'd give pricing a four out of five rating for now."
"The solution's hardware is expensive."
"Pricing for Skyhigh Security is fine."
