I love that I am able to hide my applications behind the firewall and not have to worry a single bit about exposing my origin IP address.
There was one time that I lost my 2FA device and there's no way to recover the account or the data stored in there - I can only create a completely new account.
Server and web application security and I can deploy applications behind a secure distribution service.
I like that with Cloudflare you can manage all of your sites from one single place! Recently you can use it as a registrar, having your domains on it means having: - free whois - retails renewal prices - free DNSSEC configuration With cloudflare you will have access to advanced CDN features that will speed up your sites immediately. It's also an essential tool to keep hackers away and to secure your web apps and websites and apps!
I like pretty much everything about cloudflare! What maybe needs a little bit more of attention is the APPS section, some apps are not working properly.
I am able to keep my websites secure, fast and anonymous.
CloudFlare has really helped me optimize our internal processes and made the whole company more efficient.
So far so good, would like to see some updates to it every now and then.
We are solving our efficiency and transparency problems.
The service not only helped me to successfully repel the attack with a few clicks, but also optimizes the site for display in different regions through its caching. I see statistics in real time where attacks are coming from, and I can apply rules to them both for blocking by ip range and by country. Also, the service significantly saves traffic. This is important when you have a hosting with a limit on traffic and bandwidth.
As a very advanced user, I understand everything in the interface and I did not use any references. Service completely suits me.
I stopped DDoS-attack on the site in 2 hours after I connected the Cloudflare. The diversity in the settings allowed me to block a botnet from 4 countries with just a few rules.
The ease of installation and setup - Cloudflare truly makes it easy to enable the firewall on almost any site.
Sometimes setting up a custom rule can require a little more digging and technical knowledge than normal.
Our hosting clients are protected against malicious traffic and we have piece of mind that their sites won't encounter a breach.
I love the fact that CloudFlare WAF blocks any suspicious incoming traffic: they challenge the visitor with a security feature. This prevents bots and any other automated scripts from trying to hack your website. I also appreciate how easy it was to set up the WAF, thanks to the user-friendly admin panel. The pre-defined rules are also pretty amazing.
False positive: one of our technicians updating our website was kicked out for accessing the IP too many times within a specified time-frame. We had to adjust the rules.
We were able to have a secured online platform, free from any IT risks.
I like the free SSL certificates and how easily they are set up. The analytics panel is great for understanding where website traffic comes. The DNS control panel is simply amazing and very user friendly. CloudFlare protection against attackers is something that I greatly value, to conclude.
Shared SSL certificates can be an issue: if a scammer is using the same shared certificate, this could really impact negatively on one's business. In this case option for a dedicated SSL would be a option (a paid one though: $5/month)
With CloudFlare, we have made savings of at least $100 per year per website, where we had to purchase SSL certificates initially.
I love how easy it is transfer name servers. All records get transferred to cloudflare including mail server information. The SSL and page rules makes security a breeze
Nothing worth noting. these guy have pretty great offerings
CDN requirements for caching and speed of website
Blocks attacks with minimal work on our end.
Not able to pay just for specific features ala carte.
Provides another level of security for the site
