Cloud security has improved remote access and has reduced costs for smaller client sites
I have used Cloudflare One's Identity-Aware Proxy, and it is quite straightforward from what I have seen so far. The app registration on the Azure side integrates fully into Cloudflare, and I am very satisfied with that part because it is easy to set up. The integration of Cloudflare One's Secure Web Gateway and Zero Trust Network Access works without any issues. That part is pretty automatic, and if you complete the rest of the setup, it comes together by itself with no issues from my side. What makes it nice is that we can actually start replacing on-site firewalls at this stage for the smaller clients because it does not matter if they go to a coffee shop or work from home; they are still secured by the same connection. The hops get shorter and you get better latency. We have done testing to see if it is better. One thing that we did notice with our proof of concept with our current client is that they have people connecting from the UK. When they used their previous VPN solution, uploading CAD drawings and other files to the server took a long time. They mentioned that it is much quicker on Cloudflare One's solution. I definitely believe that is part of the improved performance, and I am satisfied with that as well. What is nice about Cloudflare One is that it makes the setup easier and also easier to train technicians to maintain it. Compared to legacy systems, we do not need to get fancy firewalls in place that are costly. That is definitely also a cost-saver with Cloudflare One.

Ensures seamless real-time alerts and smooth deployment with room for Linux functionality improvement
The licensing issue was eventually resolved by the team, but the Linux client issue persisted. Not all the policies applied to the Linux clients were as effective as those for Mac and Windows. That was somewhat of a downside for us. I cannot speak to whether they have improved this in the past two years. An area for improvement is that when a package is provided, there should be no additional elements required from the user's side. For instance, there is an activation key, and you have to specify the host where you need to redirect and fetch the license. That was disappointing when it comes to mass deployment.

Email protection has improved and now prevents sensitive data loss with accurate detection
Proofpoint Email Data Loss Prevention (DLP) has Email DLP, and its Threat Intelligence is highly appreciated. It supports anti-spam solutions and has an inbuilt DMARC solution, which enhances its capabilities effectively. Additionally, with the help of machine learning and artificial intelligence, Proofpoint Email Data Loss Prevention (DLP) can categorize and manage sensitive data, minimizing false positives and enhancing user experience greatly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We mostly use Cloudflare WAF, and gets basic Cloudflaire DDoS, caching as extra bonus . We like the factor these features are all integrated into 1 console, simple to manage."
"Using Cloudflare One makes my work quite easy because for DDoS protection, all I need to do is understand the OSI model and click; it makes it easier than trying to write a command line or use a Linux command."
"It's the endpoint exposition. We don't need to expose our VPN server to the internet and need a zero-test solution. I can apply some conditional access to the endpoint that's connecting to our network to check their security policies or the security condition of their workstation. Once the workstation is trying to connect to my internal network, then I would like to check the discrete condition of these endpoints that are trying to access my internal network. We created some conditional access. We have CrowdStrike, to check if the CrowdStrike is installed, to check if it's updated, and to check for Windows updates. We created some conditional policies to check it."
"Cloudflare DDoS is better than its competitors for its security, deployment, and scalability."
"Cloudflare Zero Trust Platform removes the risk of exposing the applications to the public."
"Cloudflare is simple to use."
"It will take the blow rather than our applications should an attack occur."
"I'm very satisfied with the environment and the dashboard."
"The core of its value lies in obtaining logs remotely and exercising control over what employees can or cannot use."
"The interface is pretty user-friendly, neatly explained, and simple to use."
"The Data Loss Prevention (DLP) Netwrix Endpoint Protector product is one of the easiest DLPs that can be installed, and I think that we have successfully deployed many of these in the Asia Pacific region."
"It also provides us with the ability to lock down a wide variety of USB devices, which is pretty important because we don't want certain data accessed. It does a really good job when it comes to the versatility of the exit points it supports, making sure that important data does not leave our organization."
"CoSoSys can control most of this part and it has absolutely, 100% helped to reduce important data from going out of our organization."
"In terms of the ease of deployment, the ease of management, and the ease of actually getting the basis of Endpoint Protector to move on, EPP is one of the easiest."
"When the implementation occurred, we were functional within a month, with no need for follow-up support."
"This is a budget-friendly solution that covers all the aspects of host-level DLP."
"We have too many features included in the solution. These include third-party malware detection as a primary feature and a secondary feature focused on dealing with various security threats."
"Proofpoint Email Data Loss Prevention (DLP) is very good."
"Proofpoint offers flexibility in licensing, accommodating various levels from small businesses to governments."
 

Cons

"The software has automated alerts, but the automated alerts are not available in the mobile app."
"Cloudflare One is not very powerful, but for what we require, it is basic and sufficient."
"Automation could be improved where you can easily add a TLS and SSL certificate to an application or web app if the developer did not include it."
"When there are any dynamic changes in complex applications, the tool takes a lot of time, making its analytics-related area a major matter of concern where improvements are needed."
"From a logging perspective, it is still a bit difficult to see exactly what users are being blocked with the current views."
"For the topic of improvement, providing some training material is one of my suggestions."
"The pricing is an area that can be improved. Pricing, as far as I recall, was the source of our problems."
"Feedback could be enhanced."
"Currently, for additional applications that need monitoring by the EPP, a request must be made to their technical support. It would be beneficial to add a feature allowing users to manually add applications for monitoring without depending on the vendor."
"When we started, the price was reasonable, but it has been increasing over time."
"Endpoint Protector, in particular, had some features to be desired for the Mac operating system."
"In Linux, it is difficult to control uninstallation. Users can uninstall it at any time, and we can only monitor that it is uninstalled."
"It needs to improve in terms of policy customization."
"I would rate the role-based access features for administrators a six out of ten. There's work to be done on the granularity of roles that can be assigned to an administrator but there is role-based administrator access present. That's why it's not a zero rating."
"It would be helpful if they offered discounted pricing for long-term contracts to serve customers who are interested in committing for periods of three years, five years, or longer."
"Frankly speaking, I'm not happy with the product."
"It is difficult to meet the European security compliancy regulations using Proofpoint since it is very focused on the American market, differing significantly from European policies."
"The tool is expensive."
"Cost should reduce so that people can use it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing of the solution is cheap. The licensing cost is also very low. I rate the cost and pricing a three out of ten."
"The solution's pricing lacks transparency."
"The price tag is no longer $200,000, but rather $300,000 to $400,000. It's twice."
"Cloudflare Zero Trust Platform's pricing is good."
"The pricing is somewhere in the middle. I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten."
"The prices are slightly expensive."
"The solution is not that expensive."
"My company has to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the solution. There are no hidden charges apart from the licensing costs of the solution."
"The solution’s pricing is a normal industry standard and depends on customers and salespersons."
"The minimum number of licenses they sell is 50 or 150 users."
"The price of Endpoint Protector by CoSoSys is more or less the same as other competing solutions."
"This solution was not too cheap or too expensive. But for the amount of features that they are offering, it was reasonable."
"The pricing is reasonable for this particular market."
"This is a budget-friendly solution that covers all the aspects of host-level DLP."
"When I last renewed the license it was for a two-year term, and they gave me the second year at half price."
"We have a limited budget for our media section. When we purchased it last year, we migrated from a different solution to this solution, and at that time, they told us that the cost will remain the same, but this year, they increased the price by 20% or something like that. I am not sure about the exact price, but let's say from 8,000, it increased to 10,000. It was a huge gap, and we couldn't bear this cost because we have a limited budget. When we spoke to them, they understood our problem and reduced it to the same price that we had last year."
