"Super easy to deploy and protect your domains"
What do you like best about Cloudflare?

Deploying Cloudflare on your domain takes minutes, the peace of mind is priceless. To install Cloudflare, you enter the domain name, choose the plan and then Cloudflare scans the zone for known hosts, such as all the commonly used cPanel records. These are presented to you to review and then add your own records. Once you have your zone setup on Cloudflare , change your nameservers to the two provided to you by Cloudflare and you're done.

What do you dislike about Cloudflare?

manually checking a large zone for missed records in the initial scan can take a while. By that I mean you can scan your zone and commonly used records are scanned quickly and easily, but anything that's custom or bespoke in terms of A-Name or C-Name records have to be entered manually. I'd like to be able to enter the hostname and have them look them up easier. I understand you can import a zone file, which I have not done yet - so that might help as long as you have access to the existing DNS. Many times we're setting up cloudflare and then having to co-ordinate with an existing 'admin' who won't relinquish access, that can cause issues.

What problems is Cloudflare solving and how is that benefiting you?

faster DNS, content caching, WAF and centralized firewall. Benefits realized: a. peace of mind b. instant DNS update c. content distribution network d. WAF e. centralized blocklist of malicious actors and their IP addresses f. Visitor and traffic statistics

"CloudFlare DNS: Advanced, Secured DNS Management"
What do you like best about Cloudflare?

CloudFlare DNS is pretty fast to access, with 2FA secured login. The DNS features are really advanced, and offer a multitude of possibilities concerning the records update. Best of all, we were able to choose which record were to go though the Cloud (Secured CloudFlare) and which records were to bypass CloudFlare.

What do you dislike about Cloudflare?

To be honest, in order to use custom nameservers, there is an expensive fee and package (Enterprise) update required.

What problems is Cloudflare solving and how is that benefiting you?

Thanks to CloudFlare, we were able to securely mange our DNS records for our company's website, optimizing it's cybersecurity in the best possible way.

"Essential edge"
What do you like best about Cloudflare?

I'd struggle to pick between peace of mind (WAF) and Page Rules which allow utilisation of the edge caches, both are superb.

What do you dislike about Cloudflare?

Honestly, some features arrive a little half baked. Registrar is an example of something that is great, but still very much MVP for such an important function we do struggle.

What problems is Cloudflare solving and how is that benefiting you?

Endpoint protection and Cloudflare Access allow us to both sleep at night and easily allow authenticated access to private test domains.

"The best DNS management tool"
What do you like best about Cloudflare?

I love that Cloudflare is offering a lot of services for free, so everyone can become a customer of theirs, with no exceptions and excuses of high cost service. Its simple to use and I love that they are constantly relevant and finding new way to surprise their customers - like the information that you can also register the domains with them

What do you dislike about Cloudflare?

I don’t dislike much, maybe the support is not on point as I like it to be

What problems is Cloudflare solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Cloudflare for the DNS management mostly, plus the DDoS firewall. On the better performing sites we use also page rules.

"Cloudflare is amazing"
What do you like best about Cloudflare?

Being able to have domain registration, DNS, caching, and basic reporting in one interface is great.

What do you dislike about Cloudflare?

Cloudflare has brought many new services, sometimes it can be hard to decipher all possible solutions.

What problems is Cloudflare solving and how is that benefiting you?

I've mostly used basic CDN and DNS, network speedups using Argo, but going through the UI, there are many other services offered I could take advantage of in the future.
