"Cloudflare - A name you can trust for speed, security and a robust network!"

5/5

What do you like best about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance?

For anyone starting out in the world of web development, setting up and using a CDN can be a very daunting task. This is where Cloudflare comes in. With a streamlined setup process and straightforward controls, you will be set up and ready to go within minutes of signing up for an account. For 90% of users out there, the free version provides above and beyond what you will require from a CDN. With additional DDoS protection, a strong firewall and extremely fast caching, it takes your website from being about average to one of the best on the market. Some websites can experience load times that are anywhere between 2x and 10x faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance?

Being limited to 3 page rules is one thing where Cloudflare feels like it could fall short on. 5 would've been a nice number. But if you can get a little technical with how URLs work in general, you can combine multiple rules into one, giving in essence more than 3 page rules. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Cloudflare Application Security and Performance:

If you are looking for a revolutionary CDN that not one has multiple Points of Presence around the globe, but also has a dedicated network that provides speed and security, then look no further. Cloudflare does all of this while being free (or inexpensive if you're looking for something extra). It is quite possibly, THE BEST service you can use for DDoS protection as they have proved multiple times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cloudflare Application Security and Performance solving and how is that benefiting you?

Google searches have proven that if users don't see a webpage within 2 seconds of clicking a link, they never visit the website again. With Cloudflare, not only do users see my webpage within a second of clicking a link, they are also incentivized to look around and in doing so, find more content that they might be interested in. This has increased user retention for my website, while also helping sign up new users to the mailing list to keep an active pool of engaged users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Speeds ip my website by a whole lot"

5/5

What do you like best about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance?

Cloudflare CDN have servers all over the globe, which reaches my customers very quickly no matter where they’re located. A slow website can decrease engagement and retention, but with Cloudflare, I can be confident that my website will load quickly for everyone internationally. Cloudflare also saves my website’s data usage and have a nice panel showing the bandwidth I’m saving with Cloudflare. This lowers my infrastructure costs so I don’t have to pay more for data since Cloudflare already cached my images and files through their CDN. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cloudflare Application Security and Performance?

Sometimes website functionality can break if they’re proxied through Cloudflare. Sometimes I have to turn off Cloudflare when I’m editing my website. Other than that little nuisance, I can’t really complain when they’re offering this service for free. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cloudflare Application Security and Performance solving and how is that benefiting you?

Cloudflare has made my site availability higher because they use anycast IPs to serve my website instead of just one centralized IP. My website mainly stream and deliver videos, so it’s important that it remains uncensored and fast. I believe that this will allow my websites to bypass country blocks and reach more visitors in the world. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
