Love, - everything - support is great! Just works and was easy to implement.
Nothing is awesome! Did have a few issues integrating with wordpress.com but other than it everything was super easy.
add SSL to my sites prior to Google putting up the secure/non secure information when people navigate to a site (I think this as Aug/Sep 2017)
1. DDOS protection 2. Masquerade IP Addrs
1. Enterprise edition is too expensive!!
1. Hides my IP from attackers 2. The RocketLoader module speeds up the webpages, saving me time to tune the web server to make pages load faster 3. Web application firewall 4. Custom SSL certificate saves cost on SSL certificates. 5. Page rules to customize webpage behavior. 6. Rate Limiting in firewall
The free plan on CloudFlare is simply unbelievable value. For the low cost of nothing, you gain a world class CDN system which offers enterprise level security that rivals many premium, high cost solutions. The variety of features is astonishing too, with free SSL certificates, caching services and advanced analytics included also with the free plan.
It's hard to fault CloudFlare, but if I were to criticise something it would be that many of the caching features cause severe breakage to a site. For example, whenever I enable the Rocket Loader my WordPress sites are always broken in some form. However, beggars can't be choosers and these issues can simply be averted by not enabling this feature.
The main reason we first started using CloudFlare within our business was to upgrade all of our sites to SSL effortlessly, in preparation for the new Google HTTPS stricter rules. CloudFlare served this function perfectly, saving us money on advanced SSL certificates as well as time on installing these certificates manually. Since then, we have explored the other features of CloudFlare and impressed has been an understatement. As stated earlier, the benefits of CloudFlare are simply astonishing for a free product.
Its a complete solution with short time to update the DNS changes, its very quick, and the integration with CMS its very usefulll...
its a solutions for advanced users, mostly for the technical comcepts and the lack of manuals and faqs.
mosly i used to reduce the load time, security improvements and analitics
CloudFlare has been protecting my websites for years and maximizing their delivery speed powerfully!
The setup can require quite a learning curve to do right but once it is done, you can safely forget about it!
Websites protection, SSL certificates, deliverability speed
CloudFlare is a company that tries to give the best service to their customers without paying the attention for profit maximization. The reason for that is Cloudflare almost giving their complete solution for free subscribers. Even their pro plans are very cost effective. The most favorite feature of CloudFlare is "Always Online", this helps to reduce all downtimes of the website without spending money. The installation process of CloudFlare is so easy and very fast without any downtimes. Can easily block any IP address and also CloudFlare automatically detects and block bad IPs that can be a threat to the server. Their Content Delivery Network is also very helpful. Using Cloudflare with Wordpress site with their Wordpress plugin makes the sites make the integration more strong. They also offer a great analytic dashboard to analyze most of the data that we need to care. CloudFlare apps are very helpful. especially, their Google Analytics app.
I am bit confused to use some features of CloudFlare. Better if they can offer good video tutorials to explain each and every feature. "Rocket Loader" Feature totally messed up some sites. Therefore I don't use that feature.
Of course, CloudFlare Does. Their DNS management makes the life easier. When we are dealing with clients, we can simply use Cloudflare DNS and manage client's domains efficiently.
Super easy to use. I love that everything can also be controlled via teh CloudFlare API too
They do get you on some price tier stuff and can nickel and dime you to death with little features like page rules
We are using CloudFlare to handle DNS, CDN, and to mitigate DDoS risk for mission critical sites and applications.
I love all the options and feature they offer
the interface is alittle confusing sometimes
dns, waf
Security features of the CDN and reliability and speed of their DNS. Their DNS is always in the top few for performance: http://www.dnsperf.com/
The cloudbleed bug wasn't something anyone was happy to hear about, but it appears it wasn't exploited in the wild
Ultra reliable CDN & DNS. Basically "set-it and forget-it". By using Cloudflare, you can focus on other tasks and not think about it as an admin. You also don't have to wait all day for DNS popagation with Cloudflare
It caches our website site without having to go through complicated configurations and technical jargon. CloudFlare will cache static content such as images, CSS, and other files for our site automatically.
It would be great there was an option for DNS templates. So when you have a website with a lot of custom dns records if you could copy it would be even better.
We use it as firewall and caching system
